I tried removing as many new lines as I can, maybe I forgot to do so in one provider.

About LyricWiki... could you please specify a song, so I can better look into the problem? (Song and Artist should be enough)

Thank you!

I think this is a problem with instrumental songs. Any chance they could (optionally) have the lyrics "[Instrumental]"?

No not really. The thing is, that it is impossible to tell if a song is instrumental. Only because the plugin doesn't find any lyrics doesn't mean the song is instrumental.

Another thing is, if it is stated as such. (As in the Song you provided here).

What I was thinking of is how a lot of songs are listed as instrumental songs. Could the lyrics be formatted as "[Instrumental]", if this is the case, rather than "Instrumental"?

Theorectically yes, but I don't think such a minor thing is so important as I must always check and this makes it slower (even if only a little, but many little things equals one big )

Anyway, this LyricWiki problem is hopefully fixed. And please check if the line breaks are still there in the relevent songs. If so, please post one so I can check this out. Thank you for your contribution!

Is libcurl really needed for this? switching to fb2k's internal api will help a lot speed wise

The lyrics are from the Dire Straits song Money for Nothing. In the first picture, it's caused by "La Noyée". In the second, "Soothsayer" made it worse.

Also, the "Unfortunately, we are not licensed" message ruins the lyrics.

The other problems seems okay, though. Thanks for fixing them this quick! =D

@icedtea:
Honestly, I've never considered as I never knew it was there. Also this is the very first plugin I really looked into. So theoretically foobar coul ddo this too I guess, but I don't know how, at the moment. Maybe I'll look into it. We'll see.

@Nemphael:

Err... You say, when searching for "La Noyée" (from whatever Artist) or "Soothsayer" you get the lyrics from Dire Straits' song Money for Nothing, right? Can I have a little more information on those two songs? then I might be able to look into it better.

Here is a very cultivated site that contains over 1 million lyrics. If you like to add one built-in provider more ... 

LyricsNet

In the uppermost dialog without La Noyée or Soothsayer, Be Somebody gets correct lyrics. When adding them, second dialog, the lyrics for Be Somebody is either that of Soothsayer's or La Noyée's (Both are instrumental songs).

In the third dialog, The Beatles' Her Majesty are correct, but in the fourth, they are instead Be Somebody's.

So.... Is it so they are mixed, meaning you searched for a few songs at the same time, and the lyrics are correct only assigned to the wrong song? Something like this? And this only happens with LyricWiki?

@IcedTea:

I just looked into the http_client.h and tested, and it worked. But I can't seem to find anything with proxy, and since there is an option to use a proxy, which I don't intent to throw away, I can't to the switch, so for the time being, curl is a necessity. Sorry.

Yes, that's what happens. Every result is "pushed" one or two songs down.As far as I can tell, it happens with LyricWiki alone.

Ah, thank you. Let me guess, this only happens if there are songs that are found to be instrumental?

Fixed in the next release (currently building and soon uploading)

That's probably because none of the Sites I implemented handles Kanji (I know it's not the chinese Word for them, but they are more or less equal).
Ans since I am not chinese and have no chinese songs, I'm afraid that I can't really add one. It would be too cryptic for me. Sorry

You can search Chinese lyrics by script selecting "????", which is available while leo's lyrics and ?? can't work. furthermore the lyrics searched with timestamp. I tend to use foo_uie_lyrics because it's automatic. Sorry Qudeid.

Why sorry? I force nobody to use this Plugin.  It's your decision to use this or the other. And yes, there are scripts that are able to find chinese Lyrics, but I was talking about built-in provider.

I am obviously doing something wrong since it won't find any lyrics from Darklyrics.


Since I have no problem retrieving lyrics from Darklyrics, try checking the tags. If they don't match properly that might be the reason. (Artist and album must be correct)

Edit: I'll try another approach for Darklyrics and test it, maybe this works better. If so, it'll be changed in the next release.

No, Darklyrics not working. Tags are 100% right. I once managed to fetch Diabolical Masquerade lyrics, but nothing else. Idk what I am doing wrong since I followed the setup step-by-step.

Just to be sure, you've updated to Version 0..4.1.3 ?

If so, please post Album, Title and Artist please so i can check better.

After the update to latest version it fetches lyrics to two-three songs. Really weird. I can take almost any album and it does this or doesn't find lyrics at all even though they are in Darklyrics. Take for example Meshuggah.

That really is strange...

I use Google's "I'm feeling lucky" to get to Darklyrics.. for combustion it seems to work, but Electric Red returns a website with "Bad Request"... though the same, really the very same thing, using firefox, gives me the website of Darklyrics where the lyrics of obZen are....

Can anyone explain this to me?

Edit:  I think I've fixed it... As DarkLyrics only needs the artist and the album to return the valid website, I just omit the title in the request to google.. and that seems to work... Why the other one wouldn'T work in foobar but in firefox, is but a mystery to me... New Version is uploading

Hello Qudeid,

just registered here to reach you, first of all thanks for picking up the project!

I would like to request a small feature: Could you add the option to save the Lyrics to more than one tag?
The reason ist the following, I'd like to stick to the standard LYRICS tag as I have done the past years,
but my iPod requires the Lyrics to be stored in UNSYNCED LYRICS, otherwise lyrics aren't shown when uploading with foo_dop.
Now I have to always copy the lyrics by hand after Lyricsgrabber saved them to LYRICS...

Perhaps it's simple to just make a ";" indicate a new tag, i.e. LYRICS; UNSYNCED LYRICS ?

Greetings from DE, Immo

Sounds trivial. Hope the implentation is also. I'll look into it.. Sure  And you're welcome

Hi and thank you for your work.

I don't know if this has already been asked, but would you consider adding support for LyricsDB (HA thread)?

Maybe it's not as huge as some other sites discussed here but I always considered it sort of HA community repository (yes, you can also upload your lyrics there)...

Regards.

Alessandro

I miss lyricsplugin database so much  Maybe someone already has a fixed script for it?
