Foreign movies - auto-select movie name based on language. #242

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
I was wondering if it would be possible to have EMM select the movie name
for foreign movies based on a selected language.

For example, if I search for Audition (1999 - Takashi Miike) it shows me
the following "also known as" titles.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0235198/releaseinfo#akas

Audition    Argentina / Canada (French title) / Finland / France / Germany /
International (English title) / Spain / UK / USA
Ölüm provasi  Turkey (Turkish title)
Akroasi     Greece (festival title)
Anjo ou Demónio    Portugal
Audition (Audición)    Spain
O Teste Decisivo    Brazil (festival title)
Oodishon    Japan (alternative transliteration)

If I had selected "English" or "USA", EMM would instead name the movie
Audition.  If I had selected "Turkish" or "Turkey" it would instead name
the movie Ölüm provasi.  Right now, it simply picks the original name which
is Odishon.

I would like my foreign films to display in the English or US naming if
it's available.

Thank you!  I have really enjoyed using EMM since I discovered it a few
days ago.  My movie collection is so much easier to search through!  :D

This is great!  Could you add "International" to the drop-down?

See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0286751/releaseinfo#akas for an example of when 
this
might be used.

Thanks!

After going through several foreign films, I'm wondering if it would be better 
to
have Language and Country selectable, and a check box to enable "Prompt to 
select one
of multiple results, otherwise first result will be used." -- example, if 
English is
selected, but there are two titles -- one for UK and one for USA.  With release 
r1103
I am able to get most of the movies titled correctly automatically, but I am 
still
doing some manual cleanup for movies that don't have a title based on Country.
