Application
Lidarr

Host platform
Ubuntu 22.04.1

Script
Audio.service.bash

Script Version
2.24

Describe the bug
It seems that Deezer truncates album titles to a maximum of 130 characters. I can't find any documentation of this and have only found it through trial and error. This means that if you have an album with a title longer than this then both the artist album search and fuzzy search will fail to find a result.

I have managed to work around this with a fairly quick hack which truncates the album title to 130 characters before cleaning it. This means a result is found when doing the artist album search.

Note: the album downloaded after my quick and dirty hack but I got a System.IO.PathTooLongException: The specified file name or path is too long, or a component of the specified path is too long. exception when trying to import the tracks. I am not sure if this is another bug.

MusicBrainz entry for the album
Deezer link for the album

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Monitor an album that is on Deezer with a title longer than 130 characters
  2. Audio script will run and not find a result from Deezer

Expected behavior
The album is found and downloaded

I welcome a PR for the change. Sounds like we may just need to truncate the album folder name. If I had to guess, because the folder name is the entire album name, its too long for lidarr to handle, hence the system io error.

If you end up writing a PR, please also apply it to Tidal, because I'm sure it's also affected by this issue.

I think there are probably two PRs here. One to fix the issue with Deezer truncating the album title so the search fails, and another to fix the filename path being too long.

I am happy to work on both of those when I get some time. My bash isn't great so it would be good to get some practice in 😄

@Bassetts
The changes I just pushed may solve it... I based the changes on what I saw in your fork... However, I have not fully tested these changes... It should work....

Edit:
Let me know if this resolves the issue...
