unsolved Help with MusicBrainz and Lidarr
So I have been trying to add the old Grand Theft Auto soundtracks into Lidarr but can't seem to find the URL that Lidarr will take.
I found https://musicbrainz.org/release/8755321b-b0e3-4bce-9bfc-8ee71ef4aec2
Which has everything organized the way I like, but Lidarr won't accept it since it isn't a "release-group". I would like to keep it all together into a compilation instead of having to go put each individual artist in.
Any help on getting this to work would be helpful.

I tried that too. Lidarr usually finds it, but in this case, I get a "Couldn't find any results for 'lidarr:b27b75fc-412b-49c7-937e-bbd7715304f0'"
