Hi there, when trying to import a new movie, Radarr wasn't able to parse the quality and language. So I started playing around with the naming.

Somehow when I have the wrong quality and language in the file name, then it manages to parse the correct values:

I also tried other file names without luck. It only seems to work with wrong info in the file name, which utterly confuses me.

MediaInfo shows audio language English and resolution 1200x720, so I guess this info is used but only when German is in the filename.
I'm running Radarr in Docker and have tried the following versions:

  • v4.7.5.7809 - I get error regarding SQL, I guess the database structure changed from v4 to v5
  • v5.0.3.8127 - Original problem described above
  • v5.1.3.8246 - Original problem described above
  • v5.2.6.8376 - Original problem described above

Does anyone have any idea what is going on?..

Update: The problem seems to be caused due to missing year in the individual movie folder. If I import it with "12 Angry Men (1957)/" it works for all languages. If I do it as previously with only "12 Angry Men/", the the movie gets imported, but the file not, only got German (maybe due to some special parsing required for Umlauts or something..).

It tires me a lot to have to "choose" a preferred language for films or series, I speak several languages and therefore consume content in several languages, I don't want one of them to be "the preference" I just want to obtain the content in the original version, is there a way to configure this?

As Radarr and Sonarr check the content on IMDB, they therefore know what the original language of the content is. It should therefore be possible to simply say: I want you to find the film/series for me in the original language.

Edit: So it is indeed possible to dot with Custom Formts on Radarr, it will be available on Sonarr v4 (still in beta), see here: https://trash-guides.info/Radarr/Tips/How-to-setup-language-custom-formats/#language-original-only
