(enhancement)
If one does not fill the language drop-down box, the video language will be shown as "Unknown".

I suggest to add an extra "language" in the list, something that would say "No language". To be used for instrumental music or any video with no words in the audio track.

Why?

  1. Some people might want to filter videos and select only languages they understand
    -- "Unknown" = possibly a foreign language I do not know → default could be not to show.
    -- "No language" = universally understandable → default could be to show.
  2. Instance admins could easily spot whether there are videos with missing information; today they cannot see whether it was intentionally left blank or whether the uploader forgot to fill the information.

My PeerTube version: v1.1.0

As mentioned in #2299:

It would be great to have additional options to specify "multiple languages" selection:

  • Main language (dropdown)
  • With contributions in following languages:
    • (1st dropdown)
    • (2nd dropdown)
    • (3rd dropdown)
    • ...
