Howto change language for movie description? about tmdblib HOT 6 CLOSED

when calling GetMovie (or anything else) use the overload that allows you to specify a ISO 639-1 language code. the returned result should be in the requested language.

Ok, thank you for the very fast answer.
But how do I know, which languages (other then english) are available?
(I try it with the MovieMethods.Translations, but this seems not to return all available languages for the movie descriptions).

That's strange, could you give me an example? Normally that should do it.

For example if you use 47964 as id (http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/47964-a-good-day-to-die-hard):
You get back 21 translation available and that is the number of languages available on the main TMDb page.

var translations = client.GetMovieTranslations(47964);

ups. It's a syntax problem in my VB.NET code. If I only use MovieMethods.Translations in TMDbClient.GetMovie, then I get back 24 translations for my example movie. As soon as I try to combine it with MovieMethods.Casts (like in your example), it returns nothing.
I have to check that. Everything OK with your library. Sorry!

Hehe, your welcome. It's not my lib but I do use it as well and made some changes to it in my own fork. If you have any more questions I'll be happy to help.

As Indicated in my previous example you could just call the GetMovieTranslations method if that's all your after.

The VB equivalent of | in c# is Or (bitwise-inclusive-or operator)

Perfect! You are right, with
....TMDbClient.GetMovie(76163, "de", Objects.Movies.MovieMethods.Translations Or Objects.Movies.MovieMethods.Casts)
it works in VB.NET as expected.

Thank you for your support!!
