Title: MiniLyrics broken?
Post by: Sheugel on May 13, 2011, 02:29:37 am

Hi,
When I ty to launch MiniLyrics (latest version) manually (MLStart.exe), it doesn't see MC (16.0.87)...
Does anyone else notice the problem?

Yes. Start the Plugin Manager. Select Interface>MiniLyrics, and set it to "Show." If it already is, select "hide" and then "show." MiniLyrics should then work properly again, including loading on subsequent starts.

The plugin is unusable. It goes from one song to another like crazy!
Don't know what to do...

I had the same issue. This is what the developer told me...

Sorry about this, it's a bug of MiniLyrics. If you are using ML 7.0.676, you can switch MiniLyrics' skin to "Modern" or "Fantasy" to solve this issue temporarily. We will fix these issues in future release.

Thanks for your help and feedback.
I'll wait for the next version...

You could be waiting a long time. That communication was in February; the program hasn't been updated since January, and there are other bugs. But it does work if you use one of those skins.

Ok! I've reinstalled it and it seems "stable" also with the plain skin (that I configure to mimic the look of MC).
I wasn't used to autoload but that's not a big deal as it's only at boot (MC running in background at PC startup). With autoload enabled, I can manually restart ML with the PluginMiniLyrics.exe file (RestartML.exe  still not working).
Thanks for your help, it was really confusing.

I found a temporary solution.
It seems that the problem is the progress bar, that's why some skins work properly and other doesn't. The solution is simple: edit the skin of your choose, and delete the code for the progress bar and that's it
I hope that this will be useful.

choose the windows 7 skin, and then switch to normal mode or floating lyrics mode
all other skins cause a problem, this is not new minilyrics doesn't fully support MC
