[FIXED] Is it possible to tell Jellyfin to search also the original title?

Hello! I have a problem: sometimes I instinctively refer to a movie by the English name (for example, Star Wars), but if I search for it in jellyfin it is not found, as the italian translated name is "Guerre Stellari". I'd like to be able to search for it with both the original name and the translated name. The original name is...

It works for me. But only for some movies.

For instance "terroríficamente muertos" is the spanish name for "evil dead". And I can search both titles and jellyfin finds the movie.

I have jellyfin and metadata download set to spanish. It doesn't seem to work with all movies though. Maybe some movies do include a secondary title in the metadata and that's what's being used?

It's also just two words. Spanish worlds tend to be longer than english ones.

"Muertos" is a direct translation of "dead".

"Evil" would be "maligno", but "terroríficamente" was used "which would be like "terrifying".

Anyway spanish translations used to change a lot the titles of the movies back in the day, most famously "die hard" is "la jungla de cristal" (directly translated as: the glass jungle) here.

I've heard that they did this because direct translations or english titles didn't work as well here, and a change in the title made more people want to watch the movie.

Nowadays this happens way less, most titles are direct translations or use their english title directly.

I'm from Spain.

But I know that in Latin America they also used to change the title of some media sometimes. Funny enough they used different titles than in Spain.

For instance, the movie "White Chicks" in Spain is "Dos rubias de pelo en pecho" and in Latin America is "¿Y donde están las rubias?".

Even if they are a few bad years to become homeless. We are not even a few good lifetimes away to be billionaires.

I think the TOS include that you are not allow to tell your login credentials to anyone?

daniskarma ,

Not right now. But in the future if companies keep getting away with everything they may introduce some kind of bio-identification: eye scan, face id or fingerprint. And lock your account only to that. Preventing from every form of sharing.

In Spain we are starting to get negative prices every weekend for electricity thanks to renewables. France is not even close to those prices with their bet for nuclear.

Don't get me wrong, I love nuclear power. And I'm not a big fan ok what thousands of windmills made to our landscapes. But efficiency wise renewable is unbeatable nowadays.

One does not simply walk into mordor, you piece of shit.

We live in a system that actively prevents humans to get more knowledge, go figure.

Libraries where good for before the XXI century. Nowadays the amount of content they had is pretty small. Most libraries don't really has anything but the more famous books.

There's no stopping climate change in capitalism.

And nothing was done in the way of ending capitalism. Asking "pretty please stop using oil we will paint things" to a capitalist government is ridiculous. The only way to end emissions is being us the ones who control the industry.

So, from my point of view was a useless, possibly counter productive, action.

No everything has to be for profit in this life.

I've no contract with them, I've not made any purchases. They post something online for anyone to see.

They are completely free of locking their content behind a paywall, there are plenty of platforms for that.

But I want to make my first statement clear: no every single thing any human being does has to be done just for the sole purpose of getting an economical profit. That would be the death of humanity.

I still remember 90s internet when we had tons of websites with lots of content that was just there because the creators were fans of such content, no further intentions. Barely any ads or monetization whatsoever. The 'shark' mentality is killing internet.

I'm glad they came out as what they already were.

It was clear that they did not feel as a non-profit foundation for many years now.

I've been way more than a decade (closer to two decades) uninterruptedly using Firefox. I've never used chrome as a my main browser, ever.

But still, I'll be naive if I didn't recognize that this kind of shit will affect me even if it's just indirectly.

Next year they'll surely will be forcing many webs only working in "manifest V3 compliant browsers". I'm sure of that.

Way into my thirties, I'm still dreaming about school many nights.

If you are not talking about the past, present and future of Hannah Montana Linux I'm not even talking to you.

But what about the office landlords, are no one think about how they are going to feed their yatchs?

Which RSS aggregator do you use? I cannot seem to find one that works for me.

I cannot stand google news any more, too much spam, clickbait and advertisement. So I decided to try to selfhost an RSS aggregator to make myself a news feed that I would be comfortable with. Being RSS such an "ancient" thing I thought there will be many mature systems, but I'm not sure that's the case.....
