beets VS Lidarr

I was always frustrated that there is no solid source for synced lyrics that also offers decent API support. There is good ol' Crintsoft's MiniLyrics that is thankfully free software, was what I used a lot in my childhood, but unfortunately the API is highly obfuscated. Another popular choice is the Musixmatch API, which has a very large database of synced lyrics, but with "free" API that are reverse-engineered from their app, you will quickly run into rate-limit.

That's why I created LRCLIB. It's aimed to provide completely free synchronized lyrics for everyone, especially for FOSS music players, with zero profit intention. It currently has nearly 3,000,000 (not deduplicated) lyrics in database. You can also contribute to the database by adding and syncing lyrics for your favorite songs using the LRCGET client.

I'm trying my best to make LRCLIB server-side code open-source as soon as possible. But right now, full LRCLIB's database dumps have already been uploaded regularly and publicly, which are simply sqlite3 files. Feel free to download, look at or do anything you want with the database at https://lrclib.net/db-dumps.

Many open-source projects have already begun integrating LRCLIB, including:

- beets - music library metadata management (https://github.com/beetbox/beets)

I just ssh onto my server and use beets to remotely organize my navidrome collection and edit metadata. Beets has lots of auto-tagging features and I rarely need to edit anything manually. Works great if you are ok with using the command line.

You could try https://github.com/beetbox/beets but it seemed very manual and extremely slow. I had better luck with Picard.

Honestly? I use https://beets.io/ to organise all my FLAC on my NAS.

I expose the /Music directory over NFC.

I use https://kodi.tv/ to stream music to my amp. I manually pick the album I want to listen to.

Kodi also has a fairly reasonable web UI.

Keep it simple.

If you're technically inclined, there's beets.

You should check out beets.

Yes, you have the torrent client call beets.io on the folder and have beets configured.

I highly recommend Lidarr for organization/naming of your library. It's usually associated with piracy, but I just use it to maintain my self-ripped library and ensure that Plex has no issues discovering all my media.

Lidarr: Manages music libraries.

Lidarr + Jellyfin?

Lidarr handles your music downloads, sorts them and adds the correct metadata for your library to be picked up by Jellyfin. It will also upgrade your media if a better version is found. https://lidarr.audio/ there is also lidarr extended, which has extra features https://github.com/RandomNinjaAtk/docker-lidarr-extended

This method doesn't help at all, or I am doing something entirely wrong.

Lidarr (Music): https://github.com/Lidarr/Lidarr Lidarr can also pull down new album releases for artists, but that's something I usually have turned off (the artists I love I buy the CD for anyway).

Try https://lidarr.audio/

Lidarr: Music

Just a side note there is lidarr that has webui that handles music, not tried soulseek looking at it now, so don't know if it's the same..
