[Qudeid]

A message from the forum staff:
As for May 2011, this component is the #1 source of third party component crashes, with 241 reports this month so far. Install it at your own risk.

Current Version: 0.5.5.2 beta

Introduction:

foo_lyricsgrabber2 is a plugin originally developed by T.P.Wang (unfortunately not maintained for a long time). It is designed to download lyrics from the web for specified songs.

Instructions:

Right-Click a song and choose in the menu "Lyrics Grabber" the provider to download the lyrics from.

Requirements:

Foobar 1.0 or later is supported.
For earlier versions please use the original lyricsgrabber you can find here.

Important: Do not install both foo_lyricsgrabber and foo_lyricsgrabber2 at the same time. Those two will crash foobar! Only install one of them.

That's an intresting idea. I will test it that way!

Edit: I've just tried it out and found a problem with that approach... The thing is I get it as a comma.. unless there is a way to determine it is truly multi value, rather than a comma in the tag, I am forced to first check it as is, and then, if that failed, probably splitting it apart... Hopefully there is a variable that tells me it is multi value.

You can use the file_info interface class for this.
