Any idea why Lidarr can’t find musicbrainz.org/…/165b34c9-6132-4632-b1f4-981f51f… ? It finds the other four albums but not this one.

AFAIK still not a closed out issue.
Lidarr not finding release / group that exists in MusicBrains?

It’s not a 500, but the rest of the issue seems to indicate some things just aren’t being found. I wonder if there’s a way to go straight to MusicBrainz as a backup.

So thats the caching portion not being 100% - using the ID for the search, try it twice, that has worked where the first fails but the second query shows up, specifically for the id you want

Lidarr is pretty much dead, just so you know. The problem became managing metadata sources and assignment to media.

I’m actually generally finding it working better for me since they let you search for releases/groups and not just artists.

I’m using Lidarr and it’s sometimes a bit of a hassle but it works. What would you recommend instead?

I use tubifarry, a lidarr plugin to use slskd (soulseek) to find and download albums. For me is way better than searching for torrents

I don’t think there is anything, really.
Radarr and Sonarr work because the naming conventions for videos are more or less established.
With music, everyone has a different philosophy for tagging, renaming files, transcoding, how to handle best-of albums, compilations, etc. So what works for you probably doesn’t work for me and vice versa.
Lidarr gets very few updates, I don’t think anyone is working on it anymore. I remember the problem was keeping up with metadata handling.

Have you tried using the ID (last part of the URL) directly by putting “lidarr:<id>” in the search bar?
Sometimes that helps. Some releases also have some uncommon metadata, causing Lidarr to ignore them, not sure if that’s the case here.

How long would you expect it to take to propagate? I don’t see it yet, and five days seems like a reasonable time to wait.

Thank you! I just learned a lot. I’ve made the edit; hopefully won’t take too long to make it to the cache.

It’s the lack of release status. Click the release, then edit, and choose the correct status. It the should show up in Lidarr in a few days.

This is the correct answer, all other comments are just noise lol
