Comment on Is anyone looking for a open source project to get involved in? If so, this might be for you: MediaWolf - a Media Discovery and Download Hub.

This looks interesting. Just two thoughts (sorry if these dont belong in a recruitment post, feel free to ignore):

Radarr and sonarr already have a function to look at ones library and offer recommendations for new adds. How is your proposed functionality different?

Lidarr import of existing library or even grabs/downloads is atrocious. It’s damn near unusable, and a lot of people (myself included) don’t use it because it’s functionally useless if one has to manually import every song or album. I’m not sure it’s worth spending time building anything on top of Lidarr. Thoughts?

Recommendations are based on TMDB for what you already have in the library, and also there is a simpler UI with filters and sorting.

Lidarr is fine if you use something like LidaTube or a plugin to grab media.

  Maybe I’ll have to try again. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lidarr/comments/1bq1zot/comment/m6ecbr2/ was my experience downloading with deemix and trying to import into lidarr.
