Is there an existing issue for this?

I have searched the existing open and closed issues

Right now, there are a bunch of languages supported by TMDB that are not supported by Sonarr/Radarr. This means that any movie/file with these languages is parsed as English which leads to less-than-ideal behavior. While there are individual FRs to add support for very specific languages, I wanted to create a master FR that has all possible languages so they can all be added in one shot.

This is needed in Sonarr as well.

Describe the solution you'd like

Using below endpoint, you can see all existing languages on TMDB. While more can potentially be added in the future, this list is probably going to cover all existing movies, so it should be solid.

https://api.themoviedb.org/3/configuration/languages?api_key=<<api_key>>

Here is the output. One thing to note is that Cantonese is coming as CN here, but this is incorrect it seems - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes. CN does not exist as a code, and it should be mapped to ZH. This means that it is possible that multiple TMDB languages could be mapped to the same ISO 639-1 code. I am not sure if there are other examples.

AB#4181

Originally created by @rg9400 on GitHub (Nov 26, 2022). ### Is there an existing issue for this? - [X] I have searched the existing open and closed issues ### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe Right now, there are a bunch of languages supported by TMDB that are not supported by Sonarr/Radarr. This means that any movie/file with these languages is parsed as English which leads to less-than-ideal behavior. While there are individual FRs to add support for very specific languages, I wanted to create a master FR that has all possible languages so they can all be added in one shot. This is needed in Sonarr as well. ### Describe the solution you'd like Using below endpoint, you can see all existing languages on TMDB. While more can potentially be added in the future, this list is probably going to cover all existing movies, so it should be solid. https://api.themoviedb.org/3/configuration/languages?api_key=<<api_key>> Here is the output. One thing to note is that Cantonese is coming as CN here, but this is incorrect it seems - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes. CN does not exist as a code, and it should be mapped to ZH. This means that it is possible that multiple TMDB languages could be mapped to the same ISO 639-1 code. I am not sure if there are other examples. ```json [ { "iso_639_1": "xx", "english_name": "No Language", "name": "No Language" }, { "iso_639_1": "aa", "english_name": "Afar", "name": "" }, {

The big question here is which of these actually get movies or releases against them. Sure we can add everything, but what's going to happen is Radarr will collect ALL translations from TMDB in the DB, Language Parsing slows, etc. Is it worth it to support every possible language if 40-50% of them don't have movies or releases?

Just something to think about. It might not be a bad idea for us to bucket the TMDB database against spoken_languages and original_language properties for movies to make some decisions.

yeah I think most of these will have no movies against them. There's also no easy way to check stats for each language, unless you are storing that in the metadata servers and can see which ones have movies.

I can highlight the ones I know are missing that do, but I am sure I am missing a bunch as well

Yea, we might have some data in the cache.

I can highlight the ones I know are missing that do, but I am sure I am missing a bunch as well

This would certainly be helpful.

In Sonarr, I noticed Catalan, Romanian, and Thai are missing.

In Radarr: Serbian, Estonian, No Language/Linguistic Content (Silent films), Indonesian, Bosnian, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Catalan, Filipino, Latin, Macedonian, Dzongkha, Kannada, Romany (Serbo-Croatian should be mapped to this), Bangla (I think Bengali should be mapped to this), Marathi

In both, Cantonese at TMDB should map to Chinese for Audio Language.

Maybe Tagalog could be added as well, AvistaZ has 6050 torrents with that language

Could we add Malayalam and Kannada as Original Languages in Radarr please?
I have a few movies in those languages that are incorrectly mapped to English now.

Thanks, I was indeed on an old v3 version. Now I'm still facing the same issue, I have a romanian tv show with its english name and because of this searching for files does not work. How can I change the metadata to Romanian?
