No "Trailer" button available with non "en-US" language setting #122

Description

@a-van-doorn

Kodi 21.2.0
TMDb TV Shows 1.7.2

Symptom:
Source is configured as content “TV shows”. Changed settings of the add-on compared to default:

Preferred language: nl-NL
Addon Player: YouTube

When scraping information for a show (tested with “Squid Game”) the information displayed is in Dutch. But there is no “Trailer” button available. Changing the “Preferred language” setting to “en-US” and refreshing the show information will display the show information in English and the “Trailer” button is available.

  • Changing the language to anything other than “en-US” will also cause no availability of the “Trailer” button.

  • Removing the .pickle file in temp/scrapers/metadata.tvshows.themoviedb.org.python before a show refresh doesn’t make a difference.

  • Completely removing the TV show from the library and rescan of the library doesn’t make a difference.

Did find the following in the changelog on GitHub:

1.4.9	fix to fallback to English trailer if no trailer found in selected language

Seems like this is no longer working.

Symptom is the same for running Kodi on a Pi3B+ as in a VMware Workstation virtual machine.

Snippet from the kodi.log file when debugging was enabled.

With "en-US":

I'm happy to provide additional information when needed.
