Serviio

Hi,

I have media in different languages: Spanish, German, English, ... some of the files, contain more than one audio stream.

I think it would be interesting to have a new Category called "by language" where only the movies that contain audio streams in that language are listed. This would be very useful for people learning languages, or in case that you want to enjoy the movie with someone who does not speak a certain language (then you would have to choose only from the films of the desired language)

For MKV files, serviio could rely on the stream information (if available). For other files (i.e. AVI), the scanner could rely in some special tags in the file name:
[ENG] for english, [GER] for german, ... (making possible to combine several of them).

The user would be then responsible to choose the desired audio stream in his player.

Additionally, the title of the media could be displayed in the language corresponding to the selected Category (displaying the original title, within brackets)



This feature request, could be combined with others:
- select the right audio track based on prefered language (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15397&hilit=language)
- multiple external subtitles (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3140&hilit=language)
- Language & Subs tags (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5502&hilit=language)
- Language selection for metadata retrieval (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=61&hilit=language)

Request similar to:
- Multiple entries for same video with multiple sound-trac (viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1367&hilit=language=



Thank you in advance for your reply
