I would love to seed (and cross-seed) my music library, but metadata tagging and renaming fucks the files up. How do I set up qBittorrent and Prowlarr to keep seeding after retagging?

    Yeah, that’s what I was expecting unfortunately… The problem isn’t the filenames, the problem is that the downloaded files lack any real metadata, so my media libraries ignore the files…I’m also talking about terabytes of files that I can’t afford to duplicate right now. Maybe I’ll make my own public torrents?

      Have you tried Lidarr? This might help with finding files that are appropriately tagged versus those that aren’t. At the very least, you might consider duplicating the more hard to find stuff and ignore things like Taylor Swift and the like.

        Problem solved. I’m a damn idiot. I have Prowlarr, Sonarr, and Radarr set up…totally forgot about Lidarr. Thank you, sorry for the ignorance
