I would have thought best to do as Nicolas suggested: change this release
to a pseudo-release in English, but then also create a pseudo-release in
Hungarian and an official release showing what was on the cover (all linked
together). That's what the style guide says:
"If the release has tracks listed in multiple languages, the entry with
both languages included is considered to be the official release. Entries
with only one of the languages on the cover should be set to
pseudo-release."
