    Delete this thread, if already requested or implemented or solved by a plugin, which I cannot find. 

    User stories:

    1. As a child with poor progress in English at school I want to see (only) content in my first language, so that I can quickly find what I want to watch without having to ask Jellyfin admins / content curators
    2. As a father (Jellyfin admin) I want to be able to assign languages to other users (kids), so that the frontend can be filtered accordingly 
    3. As any user I want to be able to filter content (by language)


    Features:
    • flanguage ilters in frontend
    • language preference assignment in backend for users / by users
    • language flag icons (emojies ?) on movie posters, titles, ... not hard rendered

    Any idea if that would be feasible? Or is there even some (hopefully not so hacky) solution out there?

    Hi, I wrote a plugin that add language tags to movies, tv shows and collection based on the available audio tracks. Together with the parental controls in jellyfin you can limit a users selection to only the desired language or filter the library by language on demand!

    Awesome.
    Such feature is expected for long by non-english natives !

    I had a look to the github page but there's is not a lot of info on how it behave. 

    I just see some screens of the parental control config in admin panel, but nothing of what users will see.

    My understanding is that it also add information in medias to show tag of langages in it (is it only Audio or also subtitles???)
    And possibilities to filter out languages that a user doesn't want so the media in those languages are not shown, or the opposite (show only media in a specific language)

    Could you clarify please ?
