Lookup Lyrics seemed to have stopped working for me...

(1/2) > >>

kfrank:
I am running Linux Mint 19.3 Cinnamon, Media Center 26.0.94(64 bit) and was excited to see the "Lookup lyrics" feature.
It seemed to work for a bit and then stopped working. I thought I remember seeing something on the forum about people being blacklisted by the lyrics site for too many requests. Could that be the case?
If so is there a known solution?
Thanks for any help.

kfrank:
Is no one else having problems downloading lyrics???

bob:
No but you could try using a VPN to see if you've been blacklisted.

kfrank:
Thanks for the tip... I will try a VPN.

kfrank:
Well, I logged onto AZLyrics.com it had me check a (Captcha)box saying I was not a robot. I was forwarded to the site, I made one Lyric request with JRiver and then tried to log in to AZLyrics.com again and got access denied. It appears as though I was blocked again after a single request.

It looks like the windows version of Media Center saw this was a problem and now uses Google as its primary source for Lyrics(see post: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,119857.msg832479.html#msg832479). Will this be implemented in the Linux version?
