Choose request language

A little drop down menu next to requests with a list of Languages that you setup (who match Radarr/Sonarr profiles). Making this optional would be useful.

Can you please expand what you mean here? I'm not 100% following this feature suggestion

Thank you. Basically, my family uses Ombi a lot and they tend to watch mostly French movies. The problem is, they have to request it, and then go into the requests and edit the profile themselves (it's a bit confusing and not a very "smooth" experience). What I would suggest is being able to map languages to a certain Radarr/Sonarr profile and from the page directly be able to choose which language to request that movie or series.

The way I would imagine it is next to the 'Request' button, there would be a little drop down menu with Languages the admin has configured which are mapped to Radarr profile. I gave them the Auto Approve permission and paired with such a feature, it would mean the whole experience would be instant for them!

Hi Matthieu, You can do this currently.

1. Set up a second quality profile in Radarr/Sonarr with French as the release language.
2. In Ombi under the User Management menu, select Details/Edit for the specific French user.
3. In the user edit menu, under Quality & Root Path Preferences you can select the "French" Radarr/Sonarr quality profile.

Now all requests from that user will return French language movie results. I hope that I have understood your request right.

I have users with that are watching movies in different languages. So Matthieu's idea with the drop down would be ideal for this situation.

I know Sonarrv3 has implemented a "Language" feature, could Ombi just interface with that? Maybe Radarr has something similar in the non-stable branch?

That's a grate idea. I have users requesting most movies in English but when they want something for the kids they want it in local language. If thay could choose a language that I can match to sonarr/radarr profile that would be fantastic!!!
