This is *desirable* because the metadata language is the default locale shown to users without a translation in their language. So the example above makes sense, for a Japanese video. It is tagged as Japanese but shows up in English for non-Japanese users. Perfect.

The old Classic studio exposed this, but the new one does not. The problem is if you get into the above state with the wrong "title and description language", you are stuck. But you can fix it by editing an API request.

Open Chrome Dev Tools > Network, go to the subtitles page, edit the language you *want* to be the "title and description" language, and save. Then go to the /update_video_metadata_translation request in the panel and copy as cURL.

Find "primaryLanguage":"en" and change it to whatever language you *want* to be the primary language (same as the languageCode adjacent). Then run the command. Note that this will clobber your old primary metadata language's text, so you will have to re-add it as a translation.

If you want to do this right when adding a new video, without API request hacks, do it in this order: 1. Upload with language set to English (primary metadata lang) 2. Add a translation (e.g. JA) 3. Edit the video language to that (e.g. JA) Now metadata is EN but video JA.
