Hi,

first of all: Thank you for this awesome music player!


I really love the "auto download and embed lyrics"-feature of MusicBee but it is still a lot of work to click through every single song to get all the lyrics. Is it somehow possible to auto tag the lyrics of multiple tracks in one go?

Select the tracks you wish to find lyrics for > right-click > Auto-Tag by track > Update Missing Lyrics
Download the latest MusicBee v3.5 or 3.6 patch from here.
Unzip into your MusicBee directory and overwrite existing files.

Thank you!  :)

Is there any way to auto tag the lyrics of instrumental songs (genre tagged as instrumental) with a term like "Instrumental"?
Otherwise MusicBee flags a huge amount of instrumental music as "missing lyrics".

I'm not aware of an auto-process, but you can sort by genre > select all the instrumentals > right-click > edit > lyrics tab > mark as having no lyrics

Thanks again!  ;)
Another question: Can I manually add additional lyrics sources apart from the existing four (LyricWiki, ChartLyrics, LoloLyrics and Gracenote)?

Take a look in the Plugins section for Lyrics Reloaded. Install the plugin per the directions. I suggest reading at least the last few pages of the thread as some users have added additional providers and/or fixed some of the existing ones. Please post any questions about this plugin in its thread so the plugin author will be sure to see them.
