How to use lyrics with foobar2000

2024-05-07 06:56:25

I'm looking for an alternative to iTunes using MiniLyrics. Been using them for gigs for a decade but got a new laptop, DL the current versions of both, but they no longer work together. (Thank you Apple!)

I just set up foobar but cannot find any tools/edit links or anything that refers to lyrics. I have zero ideas how to get lyrics to show while playing an MP3.

Any help is much appreciated. Wayne

Several good choices--I have all 3 in a tabbed panel:

1. Lyric Show Panel 3 (version .6) with foo_multisource 2.1 added

The OP makes no reference to having a macOS. He does mention having iTunes, which of course is an Apple application available on the Windows platform.
