Lidarr

Lidarr Information

Getting Started

Once Arr-Scripts is correctly configured for your Lidarr installation and scripts_init.bash is executed (see the readme for installation instructions), you should see a copy of extended.conf in your Lidarr config folder. The VideoPath value must be set before videos can be downloaded.

Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Qs)

• Why are music videos not getting downloaded?

Lidarr fetches the artist data from MusicBrainz. Arr-Scripts then uses that data to query IMVDB for music videos for that artist. Sometimes MusicBrainz does not have the link for imvdb for an artist and you will see a message in the logs like: [Artist Name] :: IMVDB :: ERROR :: Slug Not Found, skipping.... The only way to fix is to create a MusicBrainz account (it is free!) and update that data yourself. There is a voting process and your edits get accepted within 7 days. Once that is done, your music videos will start getting downloaded. We highly encourage you to contribute and let everyone benefit from it.
