Title: Media Center, Lyrics, WMA files
Post by: boydn on December 06, 2007, 01:38:30 pm

I've searched and can't find the answer. Are lyrics stored in the WMA files or separately? 
Thanks

MC will read and write lyrics into the WMA file itself (i.e. in the tag).

Thanks much for the quick reply.  How much does it increase file size?

Not enough to think about. (i.e. a few KB)

I believe that the WMA format also supports have lyrics with timing codes so that they can be shown along with the music, ala karaoke, but I don't know of any software or databases that make this particularly helpful. Although it would be kinda cool to have all the lyrics available and timed to the music.
