How do you approach the challenge (of getting the movies / series in English and non-English) at the moment?
Do you download two versions of the same movie?
Do you use Radarr/Sonarr and Plex?
How did you set them up to be "bilingual"?
I've always only torrented movies "manually" until a few weeks ago, when I set up my first media server with jellyfin and sonarr/radarr, and set the language to italian only. often however I see that the requested movies not downloading automatically because no italian torrent is found with the required resolution (1080p), and/or the ones actually available have 0 seeds, while there's plenty of English torrents with loads of seeders
Which trackers do you use?
Currently as italian trackers Ilcorsaroblu, itatorrents and MIRCrew, do you know other good trackers for italian media?
As someone being bilingual en/de and my family being primarily pl/de:
I will either manually remux my own from torrent/usenet releases or (usually for shows) usually just download the german version.
Usually the uploaders include the english track anyway.
I guess I have to keep my eyes open for movies series in my own language and hope they come with the original (English) sound included.
But if not: how does the whole remuxxing work? I have literally zero ideas how to get started with that. Where do you find the right (non-english) audio track(s) for the movies? Which software do you use? Etc...
Thanks for the link for Radarr dual-language setup! I came across it before :)
How to remux:
My program of choice: MakeMKV
How to:
Import two sources
Choose which tracks you want -> Example:
Video: The best video track of the two
Audio: 7.1 dolby EN (source 1) and Stereo DE (source 2)
Subtitle: 2-4 subtitle tracks (if needed). 2 from source 1 in EN, 2 from source 2 in DE
Remux it into a MKV (basically a zip version of a movie folder with each track included)
Rename your own release to fit the naming scheme
Import into *arr/media library.
For an actual guide better search on YT/Google as only text might be difficult.
I'd love that!

Regarding your question for multilingual radarr/sonarr: https://trash-guides.info/Radarr/radarr-setup-quality-profiles-french-en/
Just replace fr with language of choice :)
Thank you for chipping in!
