Describe the new feature or change:
a option to choose which language metadata it get's from tvdb.com
there seems to be a option already with tvdb.com using lid

The solution, I would think, is easy to implement; in "Media Organizer" window if the
field "thetvdb.com series ID" would accept &lid=xx it would solve foreign language
fetching for tv shows. For example; LOst id is 73739 and that is true for all languages.
By default lid=7 is fetch by your application for english. If in field "thetvdb.com
series ID" we could write 73739&lid=xx (where xx is required language) it would allow
foreign language fetching. 
English; http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=73739&lid=7
French; http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=73739&lid=17

From the wiki here are the supported languages;
Language Language ID (lid) 
Chinese 6 
English 7 
Svenska 8 
Norsk 9 
Dansk 10 
Suomeksi 11 
Nederlands 13 
Deutsch 14 
Italiano 15 
Español 16 
Français 17 
Polski 18 
Magyar 19 
Greek 20 
Turkish 21 
Russian 22 
Hebrew 24 
Japanese 25 
Portuguese 26 

So, by default your app would download lid=7 and would allow the user to select a different
lid.
Or maybe the addition of a new field for language in the "Media Organizer" window would
be easier to implement.

This improvement should be a big win for users while relatively easy to implement. In
the meantime, if we could get the source of the TheTVDB.com scrapper plugin we could
workaround it by modifying it ourselves. Thank you.

I download Spanish cartoons for my daughter and I really don't want to manually enter
more than 300 episode titles... :(

Please consider this issue. I'd happily pay for a permanent license if this was implemented.

i wonder if there're in the meanwhile some updates for this option.
my neighbours have a dune media player and they use yadis for media scraping and it's
even able to get the info in the language you want with fallback mode to engish.

Thanks for the fixing.
But what if i want to change the language to a specific show?

For example:
"Californication" will be fetched in the English language
"Asfur" will be fetched in the Hebrew language
