I’ve started using beets to manage my music library, but it doesn’t work well with jellyfin. As you can see, it creates about a million artists off of features, and this makes it hard to use. I can’t find a way to fix this in beets, so I’m considering switching, but haven’t found any proper alternatives. Do you guys solve this in any way, or use a different management software that is more standard? Thank you!

  • Not sure if you already know this, but there is a plugin called “Tubifarry” for Lidarr, that directly integrates slskd as an indexer and download client in Lidarr. I’ve recently switched from Soularr to the plugin and it works really well. In combination with the “Search Sniper” Import List you can still get that random backfill behavior of Soularr.

    Here is some general information on lidarr Plugins. You have to use a special branch/image. There’s also a link to Tubifarry at the bottom of the page.

      Wow I’ve been looking for a way to integrate soulseek into Lidarr that wasn’t a hacky mess for a while now. This is awesome, thanks for posting this.

      Oh shit I hadn’t heard of this one. Soularr feels kind of like a hack and is annoying to wrangle, so a direct integration would be huge.
