Emby server language setting


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

When I start Emby server on Windows 10, it is somehow displayed in English, although I'd like it to be in French.
Sometimes, after an update it does display in French, and then back to English for some ignored reason.

On the website though (when I click "browse library" or "configure Emby") everything is displayed in French.

This is a minor problem for me, but it would be nice if you could help me to fix it.

Thanks for your help.

Hi there, what exactly displays in English?

Posted

Hi, when I launch Emby server on Windows, the whole menu in the taskbar is in English. Just that.

Posted

Ok, is there any particular action you can do to cause this to happen so that see can investigate? Thanks.

Posted

None. My system is up to date, without any issue. The whole system is in French, only Emby server (taskbar) shows up in English for some reason.

Posted

did you choose french or french canadian?

Posted

System is set on French (France)

Ok, if this happens again please let us know and @@cayars can jump on with you and take a look. Thanks.

Well, this is happening everytime I open Emby server: Windows interface is in English.

Glad if someone else could also help. Thanks.

Hello,

I am bumping this topic because I still have the same problem.
Emby interface in windows shows in English.
Each time I update (I just did) it is showing in French. Then if click on "restart Emby server", it is still in French.

But if quit Emby, then launch it again it is back to English... till the next update.

So something is probably wrong when saving languages settings or something.
Would appreciate some help. Thanks

Sure, here it is.
Emby interface in Firefox is correctly showing in French.
But down right, interface in windows is in English.

Can you show a screenshot of the language settings screen? Thanks.

@cayars can jump on with you and take a look. One possibility is you have two server installations on your system but don't realize it. Another is maybe you have some backup and restore software that is reverting the server's data folder to a prior state.

Ok thanks, I already tried to uninstall/reinstall Emby with no luck. I only use Ccleaner from time to time, and I never restore or backup so I don't know.

l'll wait for @cayars to reply then.

Sending you a PM @Nightsax with info for us to do a remote session.

@Luke The issue is the task bar icon menu not following the language change. 

Here's a screen shot showing the issue.  French Language is selected in Emby and also in Windows.

@LukeAnd like I said earlier, each time I update Emby, the task bar icon is correctly set to French. While it's in French, if I restart server, it remains in French.

But if I quit Emby and restart, then it's back to English forever. Hope it helps

@cayars did you jump on with him to investigate the possibility of two server installs, as well as monitoring the server config file after shutting down?

Posted

Yes I did. 1 install only. server config is updating correctly.

The UI itself DOES change languages just fine.  It's only the pop up menu when you right click the Emby icon on the task bar that's wrong.

OK currently after you change the language setting, you will need to restart the server in order for it to take effect with the windows system tray. 

Does that help clear this up or is there still an issue?

Posted

Doesn't help, stayed English.

Posted

Is the issue just the tray icon?

Posted

Yes only the tray icon menu.

The Emby UI changes language without a problem.
