    Hey!

    I have the problem, that if I set the metadata language to German I often don't get titles or descriptions from TMDb.
    Is it possible to get the English ones as a fallback if there are none available in German instead of just getting nothing?

    I also tried using anidb for metadata but I have two problems with that:
    1. The titles are only shown in romanized japanese despite having the plugin set to localized with the translated title available on anidb
    2. I have the priority set like this: TMDb > anidb. Despite that, it still leaves the episode name and descriptions empty if TMDb has none in German instead of using the (English) informations from anidb.

    Is there something I can do to solve these problems?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey @CAnders10

    Yep this is a known limitation of the metadata plugins and unfortunately not possible as far as i know.
    typos are finders, keepers.

    Are there any plans on improving this area? I'd also be interested in fallback language for metadata
