Hi all i am new to self hosting, I have everything just about set up. I am on linux server (docker host). I am good with movies/tv VPN Jellyfin etc. For music I have llidar and slskd setup and both running. I have tinkered Wireguard and Finamp and had it working.
So i have these 2 problem/s I could do with some advice/opinions on if you guys would be lovely enough to help.
-
I am currently using SLSKD more as I like partial albums. I then do a manual import via Wanted…this is cumbersome as i have to then add the artist etc in lidar, then go import the tunes.
-
I have a ton of old spotify playlists for example 80s etc. I would like to be able to bring them in and automate it somehow rather than finding them one song at a time.
I hate AI but its somewhat helpful in these situations. It suggested adding soulmate (docker) that has been slightly problematic, i also saw tubifarry and another plugin.
What are your suggestions of a route to take for my problems…should i faff about further with soulmate or another option? Nice to meet you all 🙂


Import lists for adding the artist. You can see it to only monitor the specific album of that track. You can also mass import all your followed artists.
directly from lidarr Add Import List - Custom List? or using a different tool?
