Hello,
I think there is a real problem with the searches of some movie titles, I use the API to search for movies in French via Jackett, but on some movie titles like "The Boy and the Heron" or "The Frog" the search is done with the original title (Japanese or Chinese) and it is really a problem, would it be possible to correct this?

And it is not only on these movies, there are others.

To get help, you need to give us the exact query you have sent to our API and the answer you have got.
We do not debug third-party applications.

This is the official original title
To know why the application return that title, you will have to contact the support team of that application.

If you contact the authors of the APP, inform them that the API Request should be made like this:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/tv/223397?api_key=THE_KEY&language=fr-FR
The response always contains information from both fields.
name - Translated title
original_name - Original title
By the way, if you have an API Key you can test it.
Do tests by varying the &language= parameter.
fr-FR, pt-BR, en-US and blank.
