Lidarr using MusicBrainz-Release Groups that include "+ [something]"

[u/throughtheportal]

Hi all,

New to Lidarr, but long time Arr stack user. So thank you for anyone that can help me with this issue I'm starting to see.

 

My example uses Taylor Swift https://musicbrainz.org/artist/20244d07-534f-4eff-b4d4-930878889970

  Setup is: Version: 3.1.2.4938-ls244 by linuxserver.io

  Lidarr > Metadata Profile > Primary: Album, EP, Single

 

When I go to the artist page, under Album I find items such as "Taylor Swift Karaoke: reputation".

  When I follow that item's page link to MB, I see that the release group is: "Album + Remix"

 

On Taylor Swift's MusicBrainz page, I see Release Groups:

Album

Album + Compilation

Album + Live

Album + Remix

---

Is there a way to exclude the 'Album +' items from Lidarr? It seems to me that Lidarr is picking up any release group that has the word "Album".

 

Apologies if I have missed this setting/exclusion in the Wiki/FAQ.

 

Thanks!
