Title: Lyrics
Post by: maid on August 11, 2009, 12:20:59 am

Hi,
May be a silly question but where are the lyrics stored.

I am using the plug in minilyrics.

I have a song with no lyrics but when I try to download them and re play the song they do not show up.

What am I missing?

Cheers

My guess is that they are stored within the file as a tag, but I may be wrong.
I would be looking for the correct answers.

They are stored in the "Lyrics" field. You can choose to show this in your Tag action window if you like.

You can view them more usefully by using a track info template that supports lyrics as your display, or if you're playing in theatre view you can customise your file info panel in the theatre view options to display lyrics.

Where does one put lyrics that have been downloaded?

Can the lyrics be sped up?

Cheers

Lyrics are stored in the Lyrics field. Use Action Window, Tag and right click on the top bar of the action window. Select show all tags and find Lyrics field. The problem with showing lyrics is that there are few built skins or tamplates that use it. Try to go fullscreen when listening to the track, and select a Trackinfo template. Some of them have Lyrics enabled, but unfortunatly most of them looks like they are made of a 10 year old i 1990 :)

I'm sure there's some other usefull and nice Track info templates under the Skins and Plugin section on the forum here though.
