Hi,
I have some troubles to scrape my TV shows.
I configure agents for ‘French’ language (and I double check the UI because it seems there is a bug that makes return to ‘english’ when adding a library), but whatever agent I use (Plex Series Scanner or Plex TV Series), some of my shows metadata are in english.
I tried the “fix match”, without success.
So I checked the tvdb log, and something looks weird.

It looks like matching heuristics depends on folder naming.
I would expect after name matching, the scrapper will look for the a show in french with same tvdb number (267440) and choose it (whatever its score heuristics is because it’s “matching” tvdb id show!)
So I tried renaming “Attack on Titan” to its french name: “L’attaque des Titans”, and now metadata are ok !

Is this a bug or a normal behavior ?
Do I have to rename all my TV Shows to their french name ?
For the record, the movie scrapper works ok: all my movie folders have original language names, and metadata are all correctly in french.
