Want to help with german translation!

Are you only running Docker or other platforms? I can explain how to do it on Docker if you can run a bash shell into Docker.

I only run docker. I am not an expert, but I know how to ssh into my nas and send commands

[mvallevand]

Does this open a root shell ?

Code:

docker exec -u 0  -it nextpvr /bin/bash

Note use exit to exit the shell.

Actually thinking about it adding this extra command might also work an be more permanent

-volume /pathto/languages:/app/data/languages \

If I log into my synology with ssh I get "permission denied" when I try start your command. But its a user with all rights.

This is the exact message:
Sylvio@Synology:~$ docker exec -u 0 -it nextpvr /bin/bash
Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Get http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.39/...xtpvr/json: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied

You can also try remove the -u 0 but I'd try my second suggestion first.

I cannot find the path.
I have a directory "docker" and inside a directory "nextpvr" and there is a subfolder "config" where all settings are stored. There is no language folder

[mvallevand]

You would have to create the folder languages I suggest creating it in your config path and then copy the file you made into it as Deutsch.xml

After that from config

nano config.xml

and in then change Default to Deutsch

<Language>Default</Language>

and also turn this to false

<LogTranslations>true</LogTranslations>

Ok, after translating everything it seems, that this could be all . I would like to translate every client. Maybe I could translate the server too?

Is it possible to test my translation somehow? Maybe in the webclient?

FYI sub stated previously that the web app (and hence the server configuration, etc.) does not currently use the translation features. I don't think that he has specifically stated, but I'm pretty sure that his Android, iOS, and Apple TV clients also don't support translation at this time. (This thread is actually the first time that I recall seeing translations discussed since v5 was released, so there hasn't been a request for that functionality. But, I am glad that it works for the majority of the clients and is being revived!)

This translation mechanism you are working on should work for the NextPVR.exe client as well as any of the uiclients (uidroid, knewc, nlite, Roku, the new MacOS client, and the new web uiclient at http://server:8866/uiclient.html). (I believe that the NextPVR.exe native client has a separate config.xml and possibly a whole separate data tree, so you might have to take extra steps to enable translation via these .xml files with NextPVR.exe.)

Also, as Martin mentioned in a previous post, the kodi PVR client is also capable of using translations via a separate kodi mechanism. (Note that the knewc in kodi is a uiclient so would already get translations via the NextPVR method you are working on.)

[mvallevand]

NextPVR.exe uses the same config.xml no worries there.
