Is it just me, or it Lidarr a lot more difficult to work with than Sonarr/Radarr?
Sonarr and Radarr seem to be pretty simple “set it and forget it” apps, but Lidarr seems to be a bit of a pain in the ass. Does anyone have an good tips for working with it?
I definitely struggle a lot with importing certain albums and matching releases. If the album is in another language then definitely forget about it. I’m not really sure what the deal is. It works maybe 95% of the time but that 5% is a colossal pain in the ass.
What is the problem?
I use Lidarr mainly in the background: artists it adds based on Spotify playlists, and the rest it already downloads by itself, analogous to Sonarr/Radarr.
Everything works, I only go into Lidarr to remove some artist.
not infrequently, it downloads an album, but will automatically assume it’s some obscure vinyl version rather than a CD version and end up renaming the files the wrong way or something like that
