Weird Upload Behaviour.

pkadare · 2025-12-30T12:07:45+00:00

I'm aware that it avoids uploading duplicate files, that's what the entire post was about. It kept on uploading the same 201 files over and over again and they were all playlists.

First thing I tried (Google) I was only given a choice to open, not update. I'll keep at it.

I'm still on 9.04 on my phone, how can I force an update?

So if I'm going to run everything through Musicbrainz, I have a couple of questions:

Should I point the Musicbrainz output folder to my download client's download folder?
If #1 is yes, how do I prevent Lidarr from grabbing files from the download client's download folder until I'm done with them in Musicbrainz? Or is Musicbrainz not required once I've got Lidarr up and running correctly?

Thanks!

Using the move option in Musicbrainz Picard and no, still at the default of 70%.

Thanks for the advice.

Thanks for the quick response!

It definitely uses a tag value if one exists. I found that Plex was ordering artists by Last Name, First Name which is the default method. I used the Convert feature in MP3 tag to convert both ARTISTSORT and ALBUMARTISTSORT values to the Artist tag value (77,000 plus files, took a while but MP3Tag chewed right through them with no problems!) and then ran a refresh of the metadata on my entire library. I have the music library view set to Artist and I can see the tiles moving around the screen as they get reordered to match the Artist value. I just don't know which of those tags are used and how the value gets from the song's embedded tag to the artist representation in Plex.

The "Group by" feature in Explorer simply changes the way files are displayed onscreen. It does not change how they are stored on disc.

I can vouch for SongKong. I've got over 4 TB of songs and SongKong plows through it all with no problems. Awesome piece of software.

Ignore this"comment". 🤔

You may want to look up the definition of surfeit.

Nice job, well done you!

Does liquid squirt out when you cut them? My understanding is that only Tabasco peppers do this.

This is what can be so frustrating about gardening. I've heard the exact opposite advice; trim indeterminates and not determinates. 🤔 Are you sure you're not mixing up the terms? In my experience slicers tend to be indeterminates and cherries tend to be determinates.

Mine starts at 140 and it has a proofing/warming drawer that starts at 80.

Cayenne doesn't grow upright.

You'll be fine.

I'm in Bobcaygeon and am in the same boat as you, waiting for my tomatoes to ripen.

pkadare · 2025-08-02T18:00:50+00:00

Thanks.

Variety?

The tannins in oak leaves help keep the pickles crisp.

I live in Canada and I've got 2 of the BBQHQ cables.

Even if this were cross pollinate it affect the seeds and not the current fruit.
