@gaiastar:  To uninstall (paths reflect having the PORTABLE version of MusicBee):

1.  In MusicBee/Plugins, delete the file mb_LyricsReloaded.dll

2.  In MusicBee/AppData, delete the folder mb_LyricsReloaded and its contents

I can confirm that the readme.txt as currently in the uploaded package is corrupt--Mayibongwe, please take a look!  This is the file's contents when it was originally uploaded with version 1.2.0.7:

========
- Download and extract the 'providers' zip file into the "...\MusicBee\AppData\mb_LyricsReloaded\providers" folder.

- In addition to the built-in providers ... Genius, Musixmatch, Deezer ...
  the contents of this zip file - called YAML configuration files - will appear as additional sources in
  'Edit->Edit Preferences->Tags (2)->auto-tagging->lyrics' , where you can reorder their priority.


Advanced
========
- Want your retrieved lyrics to indicate which source they came from?
  Then open the 'Settings.ini' file located in the plugin's AppData folder.
  Change the 'enabled' value of the <showSource> setting from 'false' to 'true'.

- By default, the source will appear at the bottom of the lyrics when the above setting is enabled.
  To have it appear at the top instead, change the 'position' attribute from 'bottom' to 'top'.

Hi @Mayibongwe, would you be willing to help me with a .yml file for https://lyrics.lyricfind.com - I really like the formatting of their lyrics, but as far as I can tell there isn't a .yml file for them currently.

Preferably using their own site for the identity url rather than Google...

Hope it's ok for me to ask!

Is this just me?

The download for 1.2.0.7 here:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/10PsVrfkHNtL6mgwvROB6ymXyIl4U9PsS
gives a zip file that I can't extract, it saying "the archive is corrupt'".

[Mayibongwe]

There does appear to be something wrong with that uploaded zip file.
Sorry guys - that's now fixed. Should be extractable just fine now.

[Mayibongwe]

Hope it's ok for me to ask!

Totally fine. Will have a look and let uu know when it's ready.

Confirmed, that fixed it. Thnx.

Sorry man, I've had a look at the site and I can't seem to get the lyrics in plain text.
The already-available <Deezer> and <Google> providers get their lyrics from Lyric Find.
And in terms of the formatting, they also both seem to retrieve it as is. So you will have to use either of the two as an alternative.

No problem at all - thanks for checking! And thanks for the tip about Deezer and Google using Lyric Find as their source. Much appreciated!

Hello all!

I posted a version of the plugin that supports DarkLyrics - it is available here or mb_LyricsReloaded.metalEdition.1.2.1.zip for a direct link.

Also tweaked the Genius plugin to work better for my use-case, so feel free to give it a shot!

Thanks!

IMO you probably should have worked on Mayibongwe's updated and vastly improved version rather than mine.

Anyone having problems with getting Lyrics?  Yesterday, I was pulling the same lyrics for different songs/albums.  I have lyricsreloaded ver. 1.2.0.7 installed.  I tagging tool to show songs with missing lyrics, right click on the song, edit, go to lyrics tab and search for lyrics.  I have the following checked for providers:

chartlyrics
Genius
Deezer
Genius (fuzzy)
Deezer (fuzzy)
Lyrics
Lyrics Mode
Google
Bandcamp
Metal Archives

Also, how do you post a pic without having to provide a URL?  I tried inserting a pic by copy/paste and nothing happens.

No problems here grabbing lyrics.

Awhile back (maybe 2 or 3 months) I started having a problem when I'm ripping CDs.  This happens to all CDs I rip.

I rip the CD and it gets all the tracks for the album just fine, but I don't get any lyrics for any of the songs.  After the rip is completed, if I go to Now Playing and go to the lyrics pane and right click and select "redo search", it finds the lyrics just fine.

Any ideas as to why they are not found when the CD is ripped?  I could swear that it always worked that way before.  Did I somehow mess up a setting? 

I'm not sure how to find the version of Lyrics Reloaded I'm using.  The last version I see in my download folder is 1.2.0.6, but I'm not sure how to tell if that is the one MusicBee is using.

Thanks,
Bill

I don't think you've ever automatically gotten lyrics when ripping a CD as I'm pretty sure it's not supported. I can't recall a time when I ripped a CD and automatically got lyrics.

As you've discovered, once your CD is ripped, you then have to manually invoke getting the lyrics. It doesn't have to be from the Now Playing pane either. Simply select the tracks you want lyrics for > right-click > auto-tag by track > update missing lyrics.
