Hello,

&nbsp;

I´m from Germany and all my Movies have the German Title, as my Server is used by my whole Family and also Friends.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

The Movie Titles are the German Titles, but every Movie also has the Original Title in the Original Title Field.

&nbsp;

Sometimes I do not remember the German Title, as they are sometimes strange and completely different.

&nbsp;

If I search for a Movie using the Original Title, I won´t find the Movie I´m looking for. Even tough the Information is provided in the respected field.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

This probably only concerns foreigners like myself, but shouldn´t be such a big deal to adjust the search query.....

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Vote if you would like this adjustment as well....

&nbsp;

I wanted to request such a feature by myself as well. I would love to see the "original title" included in the search function!

In addition, it would make sense to include collections to the search as well.
