[Feature Request] Show/Get original title & searchable #803

Open Ircas opened 5 years ago

Ircas commented 5 years ago

I would like streama to actually GET original title from TMDB then show it somewhere (maybe above Released date)

Also I would like the search function to look for either the video title or the original title. This way it would not matter if the user actually search for the 'localized' title or the original one.

In my case, I search some movie titles in Spanish (because I'm a spaniard and I don't know some titles in english, even though my private streama is in english), and they show alright, with the title and all data in english translated already. I don't know if this works on all the languages, but in spanish specifically it works.

@Norwelian are you sure this works?

If you import lets say la casa de papel in your english tmdb it should import as money heist (Thats the english title)

Then when you search from your Dashboard la casa de papel nothing comes up. But if you search for money heist the result is there.

This is why I would like the actuall original title to be imported and be search able too...

Yeah, in that case you're right. On the process of importing, it only imports it in the language you have your streama in. What I was meaning was: in the process of searching for new movies on TMDB and importing their data into streama, they show up and even show up in the original language (when I search some title like Dos Policías Rebeldes, Bad Boys shows up), but when you actually hit SAVE and they get imported onto streama, as soon as the data its saved on the DB, it forgets everything else and only goes by the english title that has saved. So in the case of the search on the Dashboard, that data isn't gonna be available, as it was lost during the import. So yeah, I imagine it would be possible in some way to keep the already present data that TMDB has about foreign titles and import it too into streama. I would personally like this change too, especially with multiple-audio-tracks being developed (it would be nice to have the searchable title in the languages that the audios of a certain movie has, for example)

I could come up with loads of tweaks and ideas about streama but I really like it when someone backs me up.

Thanks @Norwelian for actually reading my idea commenting on it and actually describing it on your way.

I believe streama has a strong community but we are all a bit shy. Nevertheless I hope devs could look into this one too.
