[FIXED] Is it possible to tell Jellyfin to search also the original title? (lemmy.kde.social)

Hello! I have a problem: sometimes I instinctively refer to a movie by the English name (for example, Star Wars), but if I search for it in jellyfin it is not found, as the italian translated name is "Guerre Stellari". I'd like to be able to search for it with both the original name and the translated name. The original name is present in the metadata, it just isn't used as a search parameter. Is there a way?

EDIT: I understood the problem: i'm stupid

Star wars episode IV had both the translated and the original title, and was correctly find when searching "star wars", but episode V and VI didn't have the string "star wars" in the original title! and this is why jellyfin didn't find them. I edited the metadata and added it, now it works perfectly. Thanks to everyone!

It's also just two words. Spanish worlds tend to be longer than english ones.

"Muertos" is a direct translation of "dead".

"Evil" would be "maligno", but "terroríficamente" was used "which would be like "terrifying".

Anyway spanish translations used to change a lot the titles of the movies back in the day, most famously "die hard" is "la jungla de cristal" (directly translated as: the glass jungle) here.

I've heard that they did this because direct translations or english titles didn't work as well here, and a change in the title made more people want to watch the movie.

Nowadays this happens way less, most titles are direct translations or use their english title directly.

Cool thanks for the insight, is this the case for Spain or are you in a different Spanish speaking country/territory?

I'm from Spain.

But I know that in Latin America they also used to change the title of some media sometimes. Funny enough they used different titles than in Spain.

For instance, the movie "White Chicks" in Spain is "Dos rubias de pelo en pecho" and in Latin America is "¿Y donde están las rubias?".
