Short answer: no it should work. Could you please try with the 6.2.25 github release? Note that I reworked the ISO631 locale derivation in nova relying on Android and there could be some impacts. However it should also fallback to english if no description is found. Please check that api.themoviedb.org is not blocked on your end (ISP access etc.).

Possibly yes, as the domain api.themoviedb.org cannot be correctly resolved in most places in China.

You may configure your device to use a DNS server outside China via a secure DNS protocol like DoH or DoT, or install VPN on your device to prevent the ISP from giving you a wrong answer for api.themoviedb.org.

By the way, is it possible for NOVA to leave the API entry domain configurable, so that people may setup reverse proxies for api.themoviedb.org to bypass such restrictions?

@FishermanZzhang I'm pretty sure it's the router. I'm right here in China and I couldn't get the poster on the front end time, then I realized it was my parents modifying the router, and after I reset the router it solved it
