Lidarr can be used for tagging too and it does have a web interface.
Cleaning a messed up library with Beets is tough and depends on how the individual files are sorted.
Start importing/organizing a small part or some albums to find out how it works. And a backup of data is always recommend!

I can recommend Navidrome. Organizing of library with Lidarr and (Beets)[https://beets.io]
I’m using Beets for tagging because of the Discogs plugin.
Lidarr for visual overview of the library.
Just put all commands into a bash file. Starting with ‘’docker tag’’ changing tag to something else in case I need to revert and than pull, compose up. All run by crontab weekly. In case something breaks the latest working container is still there.
Some apps not mentioned yet if I’m correct:
ssh terminal
messenger signal
app for navidrome play:sub
homeassistant
rss reader
Utmost appreciated! Thanks
Thanks. Now I have to buy a new device!
I’m using network overlays for individual containers and separation.
Secondly fail2ban installed on host to secure docker services. Ban FORWARDING chains specific to docker instead of INPUT chains. [fail2ban docker](Configure Fail2Ban for a Docker Container – seifer.guru)
Use 2FA for services if available.
Rootless docker has limitations when it comes to port exposing, storage drivers, network overlays etc.
The host is auto-updating security batches but rebooted manually only.
Docker containers are updated manually too. I built all containers from file and don’t pull them because most are modified (plugins, minimizing sizes, dedicated user rights etc.)
I agree on the horrible experience. However h264 rips in Usenet lack in quality from my perspective. Data rates for 1080 are often too low and close to 720 rips. For me rips 8-12GB in size deliver the best ratio for my screen solution, and are efficient for storing.
H265 would be better but my hardware lacks in decoding capability (raspberry 3).
Everyone has different requirements driven by storage, hardware etc.
One click Hoster costs 50 EUR/year for 170GB per day.
Usenet indexer 5Eur/Month + 25EUR for 150GB
Glad if you can advice on cheaper solutions. And good private trackers!
Thanks for sharing the guide. Collecting German/English movies/shows too.
Not many trackers available though.
But there are some decent one-click hosting websites out there for such content. And Usenet has a good german movie community.
You are right Beets doesn’t allow for custom id3v2 fields.
However it has quite a lot of fields ‘’’beet fields’’’
You can write them specifically using ‘’’-F’’’
(Beets doc)[https://beets.readthedocs.io/en/stable/reference/cli.html#fields]
I’m not aware of a publisher nor producer field though.
