In this Lidarr Synology Configuring tutorial. Let’s set up Lidarr with the program NZBGet to automatically download the latest music. that you find interesting.<\/p>\n\n

Update Lidarr Synology<\/h2>\n\n

Be the first to check if there is an update available for Lidarr synology<\/p>\n\n

\"Lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Go to System<\/strong>. And then to Status<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

And click on the icon, with the two arrows<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"update<\/figure>\n\n

And then click Install latest<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

You now have to wait for the update to finish.<\/p>\n\n

I had to press restart at the top right. Lidarr should do that. But that didn’t work for me.<\/p>\n\n

\"<\/figure>\n\n

You may also have to start it in thepackage center<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

rename Lidarr<\/h2>\n\n

Go to Settings. Choose Media management.<\/p>\n\n

\"Rename<\/figure>\n\n

Check Rename Tracks<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Click on the question mark<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Select the second option. And do the same with Multi Disc Track Format<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Check the Ignore Deleted Tracks<\/strong> checkbox.<\/p>\n\n

Add indexers in Lidarr<\/h2>\n\n

We need to add an Indexer in Lidarr, so that lidarr knows where to download the nzb files from. The more you add, the better the results will be.<\/p>\n\n

\"open<\/figure>\n\n

Go to Settings<\/strong>and then Indexers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"add<\/figure>\n\n

Click on the plus.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Here you have to enter the details of your Newznab provider. <\/p>\n\n

See the newznab servers list<\/a> for a provider. I advise you to take at least 1 VIP membership. <\/p>\n\n

\"Usenet<\/figure>\n\n

You can often find the api key under you account<\/strong>. And then site api. <\/p>\n\n

\"test<\/figure>\n\n

Then click on Save<\/strong>and then Test<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Please include the above information. The Retenetion<\/strong>can often be found on the website of your Usenet provider<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

\"save<\/figure>\n\n

Save changes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Download client Nzbget configure Lidarr Synology<\/h2>\n\n

We are going to set NZBGet as a download program so that NZBGet can download the desired files from the newsgroups. <\/p>\n\n

Go to the Download client<\/strong> tab.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Click on the plus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Select NZBGet<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

\"configure<\/figure>\n\n

Enter your details from NZBGet,. Click on Test<\/strong>and if that’s OK on Save<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Lidarr quality settings<\/h2>\n\n

You can indicate here what the minimum size of your music files should be. This can be very useful for clearing up some clutter.<\/p>\n\n

\"Lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

I would set a minimum size of 1mb overall. And for FLAC 3MB.<\/p>\n\n

Kodi database updaten Lidarr<\/h2>\n\n

If you use Kodi, or another system to manage your music. Then you often have to update the library. Below I explain how you do that for Kodi. But you can also use it for Plex or another system.<\/p>\n\n

\"connect<\/figure>\n\n

Go to Settings<\/strong>. Then select Connect<\/strong>. Click on the Plus sign<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n

Select Kodi<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

\"set<\/figure>\n\n

All checkmarks under Notification Triggers<\/strong>. Ensure that you see a notification in Kodi. This is not necessary to update the library.<\/p>\n\n

\"Library<\/figure>\n\n

Scroll further down. And here you will see the checkbox Update Library<\/strong>. This is very important otherwise Kodi will not see the new release. You have to set the rest of the checkmarks to your own taste.<\/p>\n\n

\"lidarr<\/figure>\n\n

Go to Settings<\/strong> and then Metadata<\/strong>. Click Kodi<\/strong>. And check Enable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
