If I have to download all the lyrics manually and insert them into the ID3 tag, then what is the point of LyricsDB?

Read the first post in this topic. LyricsDB will download the lyrics from it's database and save them in the ID3 tag. That's the point. Select your music tracks, click 'Get from db' in the context menu and you have your lyrics.

Or you might (should?) contribute uploading YOUR lyrics to LyricsDB.

My biggest problem is trying to get the lyrics show to fit into the right side of the screen, it is actually excessively hard

I use the trackinfo panel (suggested a few posts ago) and I don't find it hard to configure and use: probably the most "problematic" (if you are new to this) step is configuring ColumnsUI.

Do I need foo_uie_lyrics to show the lyrics downloaded with foo_lyrics? Or it creates a new panel for itself?

Are you talking about foo_lyricsdb? If so, then the answer is no to both questions.

You CAN (I suppose, as I don't use this plugin) view your lyrics with foo_uie_lyrics/foo_uie_lyrics_panel, but you can also use (do I hear an echo in here? ) foo_uie_trackinfo, IF your lyrics have NO timestamps.

HTH.

See here (that's an example with tabbed panels: you can replace it with trackinfo if not needed).

I've a problem with the Lyrics-Plugin.

I just wanted to get the lyrics for some songs of the album Himmelfahrt from Megaherz. The songs are in the Database. But when i select "get lyrics from db" there comes a message "connected to database but lyrics not found".

Am I the only one with this problem?

No, unfortunately you are not. Tell me please exactly what lyrics you are trying to reach.

I also noticed some issues with getting lyrics..

sometimes some non-standart letters (like ä ö ü or sometimes quotes ' ") show up as these annoying boxes or some other weird symbols. And if that's the case the plugin wont get the lyrics. Is it a problem with my machine, as i removed all the languages and symbols that i dont need, or is it an issue with the plugin/database?

EXAMPLE: http://lyrics.mirkforce.net/rammstein/bückdich.txt wont work :/

This may not be the right spot to post this, but I thought that it would be the most appropriate. When I save lyrics to mt MP3s and display them in foobar2000 (using a Track Info panel) each line shows the return character. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem, and what they do to correct it.

Here is an example:

Yes. I use: [$replace(%lyrics%,$char(13),)].

Dug, I seem to have found a bug:

1. Search for a lyric (I do this via a shortcut)
2. Press cancel
-> the dialog stays there and only vanishes, if you restart foobar

Is there a way to timestamp the lyrics foo_lyricsdb tags and how do I make foo_uie_lyrics show them ?
I tried to timestamp them manually, but foo_uie_lyrics displays the [] brackets instead of using them ..

LyricsDB discussion

Reply #243 – 2006-07-09 22:59:38

For adding the time-tags i use foo_uie_lyrics_panel. http://foobar.s53.xrea.com/up/files/up177.zip

Though it doesnt save the lyrics (at least it doesnt for me) you have to switch to switch to text edit, copy it and past it with file properties or lyrics_db.

Will there be a version which downloads and saves the lyrics as .lrc-file?

Just after already existing funcions will be stable and perform what they should. That feature was requested a couple of times, so I will add it, yes.

Are we there yet?

I'd like to see this feature too. Also I would like lyricsDB to download lyrics automatically if there are none presented.

i just got another little question, so far lyric panel + lyricdb is simply no option for me, cause i seem to have 98% tracks which cant be found in the net by these plugins.

i need lyrics for the genres harder rock and all kinds of metal lyrics. so it would be nice if anybody else found a server which can be implemented in the lyricsdb.

If you don't find the lyrics on LyricsDB, search the web for them, add them to your files and export them to LyricsDB. That's what LyricsDB has been made for.

EDIT: Since the new beta, tag writing with lyricsdb makes foobar crash. Playback stops and foobar stops responding. Tag gets applied anyways.
