I have completed some testing of a newly modified version of the v1.26 mb_LyricsReloaded.dll from slonopot that includes changes over his first modified version, mainly a reduced size log file and improvements in some of the YML handling.
The original intent of the modified DLL was to allow the functioning of new YML "scraper" files for the Genius and Metal Archives sites, when the first Metal Archive YML file and both the built-in Genius scrapers had recently failed. This worked fine until the introduction of a captcha on the metallum website, and the defeat yet again of the revised Genius scripts.
Since then, metallum has (temporarily?) dropped its URL captcha allowing functioning of the Metal Archives YML again. The Genius scrapers remain stymied by whatever changes have been made there, and do not work. However, the separate "Beenius" plugin, which uses API-based searching, continues to function smoothly, and I recommend installing it for problem-free searching of the Genius site. It co-exists just fine with the LyricsReloaded plugin.
You will need both the revised DLL and recently re-written YML (below) to access Metal Archives. There is no interference with the DLL's functioning on other sites (barring the Genius exception), and enhanced performance with Bing, etc. As always, the DLL goes in the Plugins folder and the YML in the providers folder. Thank you, slonopot.
