Chart Finder Finds Lyrics From A 265,000+ Lyrics Database And Places This Information In Your Lyrics Field in The MC9 Database And Tag Field if Aval.

Better Matching If "&" Is In The Artist Name And Fails It Will Replace "&" With "And" And Try Again.


This Change Alone Resulted In Finding 4000+ More Lyrics For My Files.

Previously, when I clicked on Auto Batch, it would take a couple of minutes to go through my list of +/- 450 lyricless tracks. With .15 it zips through in 10 secs.
Is this a big improvement or is it not working right?

Thanks.

[KingSparta]

well the one thing that has improved is the server is not as busy as it was since i had a few programs running for the last two months downloading lyrics.

did you get any new tracks?

if you have tracks with lyrics it takes a bit longer because it checks to see if i have it first before it uploads the tracks. if i do not have it then it uploads it.

0.0.15 works for me and a few others i know.

[sherbs]

Something's not right.

As a test I removed lyrics from a track I know I got from LyricFinder and added it to my list of lyricless tracks and ran LyricFinder. It didn't find the lyrics for the track but it did submit one which is weird as none of the tracks contained lyrics.

[KingSparta]

I just tried it

it works.

try rebooting.

also it might help with the exact artist name and the exact song name.

It didn't find the lyrics for the track but it did submit one

what one?

none have been submited in the past 6 hours

there was one problem today

https://www.dyndns.org

was down or there was network problems for some time not sure but it also could have something to do with this virus thing going around.

also my site blocks all users who access this site that has a detected virus. the last detected virus was backdoor/subseven trojan horse at 5:02pm EST the user was from detroit, Mich

[KingSparta]

I released version 0.0.16

it will take artist names with "And" in them if not found the first time will dvide the first artist name from the second and then try again. if not found it will try the second artist name.

Try1
98 Degrees And Stevie Wonder
Try2
98 Degrees
If Found Re-Submit To Server As "98 Degrees And Stevie Wonder"
try3
Stevie Wonder
If Found Re-Submit To Server As "98 Degrees And Stevie Wonder"

Also if a song is listed as

SongName (Remix)
SongName (Live)

etc... will remove the info in brackets

if found then the program will re-submit the info to the server as the orginal artist or song name.

Sample
Try1
SongName (Remix)
Try2
SongName
If Found Re-Submit To Server As "SongName (Remix)"

The changes made also resulted in more than 2,000 more matches from the 24,000+ mp3 list.

Still having problems.

I uninstalled, rebooted and then installed ver.16.

I started with my whole collection in playing now and it was submitting everything so I stopped at around 120 as these have all been submitted before.
I then took lyrics out of three tracks that I know I got from finder last week and it can't find them.
The three test tracks are:
Cult - Sonic Temple - Automatic Blues
Cult - Electric - Aphrodisiac Jacket
REM - Green - Stand

I don't know if you can check whether these lyrics are still in the database but finder can't find them for me.

Thanks

>> it was submitting everything so I stopped at around 120

that might have been normal it may resubmit for a few reasons depending on how it found the lyrics.


>> Cult - Sonic Temple - Automatic Blues
Yes
>> Cult - Electric - Aphrodisiac Jacket
Yes
>> REM - Stand
Yes

is what you listed above the exact names as displayed in MC9?

[sherbs]

is what you listed above the exact names as displayed in MC9?

Yes

[KingSparta]

I have:

'Stand' from by 'Rem'

and I cleared the lyrics and the program found it.


make sure you clear the lyrics field f there is anything in there it may not get it again.

i just tested it again and it worked.

[sherbs]

I don't know if this has anything to do with it but sometime during the problems I had with .15, Norton brought up a malicious script warning as finder was searching. I blocked the script but maybe it was legit.
Although I would assume that installing a new version would reset things, could this have something to do with the problem?

[KingSparta]

>> I blocked the script but maybe it was legit.
not sure if this would be why your having problems but maybe.

the only thing it is doing is writing to the registry entries for the program.

[sherbs]

The script warning mentioned something about trying to write to the registry, must be it.
I've dug around in NIS but can't find anything to change.
Where can I find the url for the database? I can try making it a trusted site and see if that works.

Cheers.
