Current version: 0.5
Lyric source SDK (SDK to build your own lyric sources): http://code.google.com/p/foo-uie-lyrics3/downloads/list. This only works with versions of the plugin after 0.3.6 beta 4.
Changes up to 0.4:
- Fixed a bug where the fade height wouldn't update properly when changed in the settings dialogue
- Made the batch search dialogue modeless
- Fixed the message in the batch search where it would say a lyric was found but not saved (it was because a lyric already existed)
- Fixed an issue where the batch search could potentially overwrite existing lyrics
- Removed "Send lyrics to cell" and stopped letssingit.com empty lyrics from the google search
- Fixed lyrics with &# in the google search (I assumed this is where they were coming from)
- Changed the SSE settings - it should now work properly on XP
- Changes such that the new 1.3 update shouldn't affect tag loading (I might have included this in the previous release, I can't remember)
- A new version of the SDK will be released shortly
- Added a batch lyric downloader - available by right clicking on a selection of items in the playlist and clicking "Download lyrics..."
- Added a google search - This does a google search for lyrics and will attempt to download the lyrics from sites automatically. If it is unable to download the lyrics it will pop up a window asking you to select the lyrics from a webpage's text. It will try and remember the selection you made so future searches of that website can be automated (however it's not particularly intelligent so it probably won't work most of the time). The popup selection dialogue will only be displayed when the lyrics are loaded from the lyric search dialogue (so as not to interrupt normal playback).
- Added a cancel search button to the lyric search box.
- Fixed the repaint issues on seeking tracks
- Made several changes to how the plugin's display is updated
- Instant lyric scrolling by putting the scroll speed slider to its highest value (far right)
- Titleformatting for the background image path
- Fixed Dark lyrics issues with different capitalisations
- Made a large number of changes to the config system in an attempt to make it more stable
- Other stability improvements
- Fixed custom save directory problems.
- Fixed bug with small window sizes producing black window.
- Possible fix to the deadlock described by revenant.
- Some other small fixes.
- Fixed issue with illegal file characters in the custom save directory.
- Control + Enter synchronises lyric lines in editor.
- Some changes to the associations - they now use the same fallback fields as titleformatting (previously none). They now require both artist and title information as a minimum in order to save an association (this solves problems with inadequate tag information).
- Fixed the issue with loading lyrics where both the artist and title were the same.
- Multiple crash fixes.
- Crash fix when searching the associations.
- Fixed pure virtual function call when closing fb2k having removed the panel from the layout.
- Returned the behaviour regarding the associations back to how it was, i.e. it will always try to find a synced lyric. (I will do something more to rectify this, but later).
- Fixed the "wrong ext" popup (please confirm).
- Other crash fixes.
- Added a tool to batch associate lyrics with a customised filename (most users don't need to use this, only those whose lyrics are saved with a filename that is not automatically recognised). Available via the associations search properties.
- Lyrics found from either the tags or the associations will be displayed first - regardless of their type (synced or not).
- Multiple crash fixes with streams.
- Fixed spelling of excellent.
- Fixed right click saving.
- (plus some other minor fixes)
- Fixes crash with choose lyric
[b][u]Change in 0.3:[/b][/u]
- Partially rewritten lyric searching, next lyric now works properly, and it should be much more stable. Searching the internet and using the search dialogue should also be faster.
- Added a new database: Timestamped 3.
- The lyrics search is now only active if a panel exists in the layout.
- Lyrics editor auto save option is maintained on restart.
- The custom save directory is used in the local file search if it's not already specified in the custom search path.
- Pressing enter in the lyrics search dialogue searchs/loads lyrics depending on which control has focus.
- Local file search only requires title if loading from the song directory.
- Adjust offset no longer displays as -1.
- In the lyric editor, pressing enter synchronises the lyrics (the edit box mustn't have focus) - This is now redundant, use Control + Enter
- The context menu no longer uses shift.
- The fallback text now has the following titleformatting: %search_state% and %search_progress%.
- The last line of synchronised lyrics is now highlighted.

- Editor dialogue is non-modal now.
- Some changes to the layouts of the preferences/settings pages.
- Fixed a problem where using the 'Set font colour' at the start of a line would erase all the line breaks.
- Completely new associations. They are now based on the metadata (rather than filenames) and update when the metadata is changed. This enabled automatically to allow faster searching.
- Added 'Choose lyric' option in the context menu.
- More robustness in checking whether a lyric exists before saving one.

- Added a Minilyrics output plugin. Please note: Minilyrics must be installed and activated for foobar2000 for this to work.
To install the plugin, go to the Minilyrics search properties (in preferences) and click 'Download and install'.
If you want to remove the taskbar entry of Minilyrics you can do so in the advanced section of Minilyrics' preferences.
I would also recommend setting Minilyrics to only download synchronised lyrics, as Minilyrics will guess the timestamps for unsynchronised lyrics (which I find annoying).
