Automatic re-acquisition

When a file has been missing for a while, Minstrel can ask Lidarr for the album again by itself. Requests are made per album, not per track — a whole folder going missing is one request, not forty.

{:else} Ask Lidarr for missing albums automatically Off leaves missing files listed here and does nothing about them.

Wait before the first attempt Hours a file must be missing before anything is requested. A drive that didn't mount, or a container that started before its media, resolves itself well inside a day — this is what stops those becoming requests. Attempts before giving up After this many tries the album is left alone. It's picked up again if the file comes back and goes missing later. First retry gap (hours) Longest gap (hours) Albums per sweep Ceiling on requests made each hour, so a large loss trickles.

Retry schedule: {schedule} after the first attempt.

Send requests to Lidarr without approval Off means requests appear in the Requests queue for you to approve, and nothing is downloaded until you do. {#if saved && saved.unnameable_albums > 0}
