What can be (realisticly) improved for a better and easier experience
That dubbed audio tracks of movies could be downloaded separatey and easily merged in the audio, in a way similar to subtitles. This way, the audio track in non English languages would be downloaded very quickly, even with just one seeder, and the whole movie in original language has way more seeders than dubbed ones.
I’d love that!
How do you approach the challenge (of getting the movies / series in English and non-English) at the moment?
Do you download two versions of the same movie?
Do you use Radarr/Sonarr and Plex? How did you set them up to be “bilingual”?
I’ve always only torrented movies “manually” until a few weeks ago, when I set up my first media server with jellyfin and sonarr/radarr, and set the language to italian only. often however I see that the requested movies not downloading automatically because no italian torrent is found with the required resolution (1080p), and/or the ones actually available have 0 seeds, while there’s plenty of English torrents with loads of seeders
As someone being bilingual en/de and my family being primarily pl/de:
I will either manually remux my own from torrent/usenet releases or (usually for shows) usually just download the german version.
Usually the uploaders include the english track anyway.
Regarding your question for multilingual radarr/sonarr: https://trash-guides.info/Radarr/radarr-setup-quality-profiles-french-en/
Just replace fr with language of choice :)
Thank you for chipping in!
I guess I have to keep my eyes open for movies series in my own language and hope they come with the original (English) sound included.
But if not: how does the whole remuxxing work? I have literally zero ideas how to get started with that. Where do you find the right (non-english) audio track(s) for the movies? Which software do you use? Etc…
Thanks for the link for Radarr dual-language setup! I came across it before :)
