I’ve been looking at Lidarr for when I finish transferring my media server to a new system this month, what I am unsure is how difficult it would be to downgrade my 650 FLAC album library down to 320kbps.

It was great locally, but now most of my listening is remote via Plex (Plexamp/Symfonium) and I have found 320kbps albums to be more seamless than FLAC for my usecase with little difference in quality.

I have yet to add my music library to any of my family members accounts as I am unsure how they would listen to it without plexamp and I’m still considering their options.

The main thing is I was hoping Lidarr could get me a downgraded copy to replace all my library with, does anyone have any experience in this matter?

I know that Radarr/Sonarr don’t like downgrading versions automatically.

Thanks for that. I buy often from Bandcamp and they present lots of formats to download. Space is a concern for me, so I don’t go FLAC but wasn’t really sure what would be the best lossy format. I’ll start giving V0 a shot and see if my bad ears can even tell a difference.
