While artist name displays can be changed via language settings, some artists appear in only one language. 1) Tchaikovsky is displayed in English, Russian, and Japanese. 2) “Fermin Maria Alvarez” and “Patric Gowers” are displayed only in the original language. For case 1), when a language other than the original is selected (e.g., Japanese or English), the original language (Russian) appears below it; when the original language (Russian) is selected, nothing appears below it. Case 2) involves display in the original language only, which is a very rare occurrence. It seems that famous artists fall into category 1), while some lesser-known artists fall into category 2). Category 2) is inconvenient, so I would like to add a Japanese display name, but the artist editing function only allows for a single language setting. Is it not possible to configure artist names for specific languages?
Hello @Yoshihiro_Kikuchi
Thanks for the feedback here. Since this is not a current feature of Roon, I would recommend also posting your suggestion in the Feature Suggestions section of the site.
Our product team and developers keep a close eye on that category, so that’s definitely the best place to propose a change like this and get feedback from the Community.
Hi @vadim, thanks for the reply. I’ve posted my suggestion here: Adding multilingual artist names Ideally, I would like Japanese names registered for all artists, so I’ll try contacting “Fluency” about that.
