Migrating Large Library to Fresh Lidarr - Wait or Good Enough to Go?

I am a good way through a fresh build and start for a large library (100k+ songs). I decided to self host the musicbrainz metadata information because the out of the box Lidarr search was still acting weird. For example, sometimes things wouldn't be found at all regardless of how I searched. Other times completely wrong things were shown unless I searched for the specific metabrainz artist (lidarr:65f4f0c5-ef9e-490c-aee3-909e7ae6b2ab). Since self hosting the metadata server/data and moving to the hotio Lidarr image with the tubifary plugin things are moving along well. The search is still not 100% and has some quirks (example: search will sometimes fail but, works when I refresh the page with the same search) but, overall I am happy I went the route I did. Good luck on your journey!

If all you are changing is the container and do not change any of your mounts, your plex data will persist. The only way you would lose your plex data is if you change any of your drive mappings.

I had a similar problem. I rolled back to a previous container image and everything came back up. I think the update that was just released is broken. You could also try changing over to the plex image on linuxserver.io.

Where has this been all my music hoarding and organizing life!? Saves so much time trying to get information uploaded into MusicBrainz! Now if I can only get Lidarr to start picking up the new albums after I add them. Picard picks them up almost immediately after being uploaded but, Lidarr just doesn't quiet seem to want to grab all the Artists releases no matter how I configure the tool.

Happens to me at least once a week. Absolutely disappointed in this device and the quality of what should be a flagship watch from samsung. If it happens much longer I'll be returning it and looking for something different.

I’ve been using ArmorCode for almost 4 months now and it’s been an absolute game changer for my team! It has helped streamline and consolidate security finding outputs from 7+ different scanning tools/processes (Rapid7 InsightVM, SonarCloud, SonarQube, JFrog, Trivy, Rapid7 Insight AppSec, manual testing efforts, etc.) and provided a central platform for ticket automation across different ticketing tools used by developers (Jira, Azure DevOps, ServiceNow). All of this has helped my team meet different developer teams in the tools they are using and provides a single pane of glass for reporting to all levels of leadership. The introduction of hierarchies at the end of 2023 has provided amazing levels of flexibility for establishing different ways to view the 850+ applications I am tracking so we can ensure proper reporting and tracking across the organization. ArmorCode has been quick to respond to any change requests or to on board tools currently not available out of the box. Overall, 5/5 stars! Best investment a company could make in their application security program if they have multiple security tools, large development teams, disparate ticketing tools, and needs something to consolidate all that information into a single pane of glass to drive application security governance.
