While I haven't had any crashes yet with .14, I have sometimes seen foo_uie_lyrics2 fail to load my LRC file stored in a lyrics folder.  When this happens, I simply right click and Reload lyrics and then it works, so it's not a _huge_ problem, just an annoyance.

Could just be my slow laptop 5400rpm hard drive being slow.

New version with extra TRACK_CALL_TEXT Macros for lyric_loader::StartReading function and a possible crash fix

Download the last version (0.4.6.15) from here:
http://code.google.com/p/foo-display-lyrics/downloads/list

PS: I'm really busy these days. It's the only thing I can do to isolate the issue.

Hi there,

I already mentioned this at the lyric show discussion.

I set my search path to "E:\Media\Lyrics\%artist%" and my only search pattern is "$if2(%title%,%_filename%)".
So, e.g. lyrics for "Radiohead - Bodysnatchers" are stored under "E:\Media\Lyrics\Radihead\Bodysnatchers.lrc".

But lyric show2 accepts only files defined as "E:\Media\Lyrics\%artist%\%artist% - %title%".
So it stores AND searches only for "E:\Media\Lyrics\Radiohead\Rardiohear - Bodysnatchers.lrc".

It ignores my settings completely. So it stores files using  "E:\Media\Lyrics\%artist%\%artist% - %title%" not my preferred  "E:\Media\Lyrics\%artist%\%title%" pattern.
It seems to me that the Search path combined with the main search pattern is not connected with the option under "Online search" "Save to the configuration folder". So what the hell is the configuration folder - I have to guess you mean the search path, isn't it? That is not very intuitive you see...
And it seems to me, that the search pattern have actually no effect!

Users that use the default settings will have no problems with your plugin - but more advanced users will be confused.

Thanks,
Frank

I was just as confused.

I'm pretty sure that the "Save to the configuration folder" option saves the file to your foobar2000 configuration folder, in a folder called "Lyrics." So, if you allow each user to have a profile, it's saved in Documents and Settings\user  or Users\user folder structure; otherwise, it'll save to the executable folder.

Try changing the save scheme to "Save to user defined directory" and allow scripting to get it to save the files the way you want.

I just wanted to chime in and add that I'm a big fan of the plugin, and am in love with all of the work and features put in by Michael (and the contributions by jano, as well). You guys rock, thanks!

@eNc7 : I got confused with your explanation, if you could post screenshots of your config panes i'd be happy to try to help you. Maybe it's just a misconfiguration, i struggled a lot with these fields before getting them to work as expected.
The only problem i have, is that sometimes the plugin will search the correct path, but return partial results, even though i have the local search set only to %filename% with 0% fuzziness.

Does anybody get that?

It is april btw !
And who is woker ?

Time Traveler Syndrom, or probably just broken english. I'm pretty sure that woker is a typo'ed worker, refering to the plugin creator. All in all, my best guess is that he wants to know when will the next major version be released since he read it was supposed to be released in march and we're past that (not as much as june, but hey). I'd say that he didn't read the previous posts, and probably not even bothered to check jano's fixes.
Btw, as previously stated, and as you can expect with anything that is done on someone's spare time, it will be released when it's ready

your word tell my heart , tell everybody the truth. now, the creator is two people?

There is the creator, Michael87, who is not seen since February 9th, and the commiter, jano, who corrected the constant crashing issues and therefore released the last 3 updates. If you're looking for a stable release, just head to the page pointed on the first page and get the last version updated by jano (.15), but if you're expecting a whole new version, with new features and such, you'll have to wait for Michael.

If i said anything wrong feel free to correct me

Shame on me for trying to credit everyone by memory 

btw, 22 days + 1100 tracks played + 0 crashes = awesomness

Someone with my problem

Version 3.3.4 is working for me, but without automatic search. I was thinking that in version 4 that is resolved but for me in version 4 don't work also manual search. When i press SEARCH it says FOUND NOTHING. I try with portable and installing version of foobar2k - still nothing.

Any ideas for that problem

Does a web-search on the selected services website return any results (using a playing track)? If so, have you tried the last version (.15), and made sure your tags were correctly set as well as your foobar2000 proxy configs (if any)?

[crashware] foo_uie_lyrics2

I am with the last version .15 - same problem. I use no proxy. This happens on every song. Manual search also not working

I am with XP SP3 if that is a useful information

[crashware] foo_uie_lyrics2

Reply #543
Sorry, i meant browsing the service page, like http://www.lyrdb.com and check if there are actually lyrics for your songs to be downloaded. Also, you MUST have your tags set correctly, otherwise the script won't even bother searching.

[crashware] foo_uie_lyrics2

Reply #544
Tags are set correctly. I check the site and there exist the lyrics. Why can't work manual searching

Does this get lrc from the minilyrics database?

[crashware] foo_uie_lyrics2

OK i found the problem. The plugin is working only with tags. My music collection is in .wave format witch is not support tags. I set artist and title with tagging script posted from Michael on page 16 in this thread. Here is the screenshot

http://yfrog.com/gishuliofoobarj

Everything seems to be OK but the plugin just want the file to have tag.

I try this

Erase the tags on some MP3 and check same mp3 with tag and without tag. With tag everything is OK , without tag it wont search for lyrics even in manual mode (in witch i manual set artist and title)

My conclusion is that the plugin require the track to have tags


Jano - please can you do something for that limit

[crashware] foo_uie_lyrics2

In this case is more likely to be something with your connection settings. Is foobar granted acces to the internet in your firewall settings?
