Original Pull Request: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/pull/8633

State: closed
Merged: No


Changes
Merge strings like overview, tagline and title form different providers based on their reported languages.
With this change, missing fields form one provider can be provided by a different provider, even in another language. But if we already have a valid string in the correct language, always use that. But never overwrite data with an empty string.

The logic here is really complex. That's why I added tests for all the cases I could think of.

Issues
Fixes #8064
