Description of the bug

If I have a Movie named Die Bruecke (2022) and it is not identified. If I rename it to Die Brücke (2022) and refresh Metadata, I still don't get a match. If I search for Die Brucke oder Die Brücke it appears. But this should be automatically done after refreshing.

Reproduction steps

  1. Save File as Identitaet (2003).mkv
  2. Refresh Jellyfin
  3. Rename to Identität (2003).mkv
  4. Refresh Jellyfin

What is the current bug behavior?

Movie is not identified.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Identification after refreshing metadata/library.
