Dear Calibre users,

I would like to take the advantage of "Add books → Add from ISBN" function. When I enter the ISBN 9785699496211, the necessary book is found, but all meta-information is imported in English however I would like to see it in Russian (as it was originally published). The link that Calibre generates opens a page which has original title and author ("Урфин Джюс и его деревянные солдаты", Александр Волков). How to configure Calibre to take information in given language?

Also I wonder if there is a possibility to scan ISBN bar code using USB Web Cam (bug#1502503)?

Thanks!
