Rather than forcing the user to select a specific alias - which also increases support burden and does not work with the ethos of automating - we should probably just enhance the search logic and just search aliases like radarr/sonar

That's a good point, I wasn't sure how different Sonarr/Radarr's Alias searching was comparatively - let me mark this as a draft and see if I can get the requests build in a similar way to Sonarr & Radarr's SceneTitles logic

Personally I think the search alias component can be repurposed to select instead a "preferred name", the name which will be shown in the UI for that artist, like in the library, messages like "updating info for", etc.

Yeah, I think I can re-open a new PR for that later, as it would probably close #2159

Should match this pretty closely now, open to suggestions!

Any update on this? I'm having difficulty with non-english name artists and this would help a lot

yep, i also wanted to know if there are updates on this PR? looking forward for it to be pushed

All good on my end - just waiting on approval!
