What happened?

When crawling an authors bio/description, the result text is in english, although the default metadata provider is Audible.de (german)

  • The whole application's language context is german
  • no custom metadata provider is set up
  • it used to work quite a while ago (> 6 months)
  • Crawled books are working fine

What did you expect to happen?

The crawled text should be in german

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Set up everything in german language, as well as metadata provider of the library
  2. Add an author
  3. Crawl it's details (bio/desc)

Audiobookshelf version

v2.13.4

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Debian/PPA

What OS is your Audiobookshelf server hosted from?

Linux

If the issue is being seen in the UI, what browsers are you seeing the problem on?

None
