Do you have Local file search first in the Lyric searching>Search order dialog?

This is searched automatically, you don't need to specify it.

The issue that JJForums is experiencing is due to having 2 lyrics saved for the same song. The component considers the two lyrics to be of the same quality, so it's down to luck as to which lyric it loads

yes, I do.

edit: found the mistake, the order of lyrics is down to up, instead of up to down, this kind of sort is new for me.

sorry about it.

Reload button >.<

It's good use, I have Minilyrics running and it finds the lyrics and downloads them automatically. Then I usually go to my foobar2000 and refresh the lyrics to see them there but I can't.

If you've selected the 'Only query next source if no valid lyric is found' option, then it will only query databases until it finds a lyric. Hence no other lyrics will be available until you go to the lyric search dialogue which forces a search of all the databases.


Ah yes I see I have to have Query all and pick the best results checked for 'Next lyrics' to work. I just hate having it setup like that because it takes longer to initially find lyrics, would setting the connection time out time lower or to zero help this? And what method should I have set for proxy settings?

Also its not finding any lyrics for songs played by the artist "She & Him" although I added the lyrics to their songs on their Christmas album myself to lyrics.wikia.com

Hi vern,

Looks like %lyric_exists% is stuck at 1 for me, regardless of whether lyrics are there. Can you have a check?

Thanks,
Stan

Already reported in #268. It's been fixed.

@StealthX:
It's working for me.

My thanks go to Dug for making the lyrics.mirkforce.net database much faster!

I have a question about the lyrics online search.

I was using till couple months ago only the foo_uie_lyrics (the first one) and it was working briliantly. It was finding all the lyrics it could find, I was getting sometimes 20 different results from which I could download one.

I tried downloading some new lyrics lately and I couldn't get any results. I get "search failed" message. So I thought it's because the plugin is too old(something like with discogs) and that's why it doesn't work. I downloaded foo_uie_lyrics3 and to be frank, I can't seem to make it work like the old one. At best it gives me 2-3 results and those include the ones I have on my disc. So I get only 1-2 results from online searches, and what's weirder I only get plain txt files, no lrc files.

Am I doing something wrong?

cheers
Lucas

I guess that "prefer synced" behaviour searches for synced lyrics and if they are not found unsynced lyrics are searched but it doesn't search from the beginning of the source list in the defined search order.

I ask because if "prefer synced" is enabled and no such lyrics are found then online lyrics will be displayed although there exits a unsynced lyrics tag (tag searching is the first in search order)

Yeah it seems it can not find any lyrics for artist that have the '&' symbol in their name. I can take screen shots to prove it if needed lol.

Well I just tried She & Him - In The Sun. This returned lyrics from 3 different sites. This agrees with tests by the vern (post #359). She And Him - In The Sun also returned lyrics from the same sites. However, I have noticed that some sites are sensitive as to whether you use '&' or 'and' and this seems to be down to the nature of the search used at the site, and therefore where possible it is best to use the most common or most correct name for the artist. If your issue is still unresolved in the light of this, please provide the exact artist - title and lyric site combinations that fail so the issue can be troubleshooted further.

I'm seeing a problem with mp3 files (may or may not exist with FLAC, but can't check those right now) in having tags with lyrics recognized properly that seems related to the order in which tag fields are entered under "properties" for the tag search item.

The problem: tags with proper lyrics are not displayed when they should if they are in a tag that is not listed first under "properties" for the "tag search" search order item

Example conditions under which I see the problem (noting that I place synched lyrics in a tag called "lyrics" and unsynced lyrics in a tag called "unsynced lyrics")
1.) only "tag search" appears under search order
1.A) and if I enter "lyrics;unsynced lyrics" under properties for tag search,
1.A.1) and if song has lyrics in both “lyrics” and “unsynced lyrics” tags
1.A.1.a) if I select "only non-synced” for search type, I can only see fallback text (doesn’t read the unsynced lyrics that are really there because this tag is second in the properties entry)
   
1.A.2) if song just has lyrics in the “unsynced lyrics” tag,
1.A.2.a) for all choices of search type, I can only see the fallback text (even though unsynced lyrics should be displayed for several of the search type choices)

If I enter “unsynced lyrics;lyrics” under properties for tag search, I see results that similarly reflect an inability to look for and display lyrics in the tag listed second in properties when the search order should allow it.

Glad to clarify if this isn’t clear.

@Godrick:
I'm not having any issues at all with my tag loading, with either flacs or mp3s (multiple tags are loaded fine). It may be that the lyric is erroneously identified as being synced, you can check this by selecting 'no preference' for the type of lyric you search for or just email me the lyric(s).

@StealthX:
'&' characters are automatically replaced with 'and' (sorry for not mentioning earlier! - this behaviour is inherited from lyrics2). In my experience, you're more likely to get a result if the '&' is switched. Incidentally both your examples had results from lyrdb.com and one had a lyric from lyrics.mirkforce.net (you may need to increase the time-out for lyrdb.com)

@The vern:

I increased the time out to 10000 ms and still didn't find a single result for either song. If it is changing the & to And though that is probably why because both bands are in Lyrics Wikia as &.

The vern - thanks for the quick response.  I played with it some more and I discovered the source of the problem - I had a third lyrics field listed under properties for tag search.  Even though it was listed last and thus I thought would not affect things, when I deleted this third properties entry everything worked fine.  I don't understand why this caused a problem or why it worked by deleting the third tag, but I only need two tags for lyrics so all is good.

@godrick:
Thanks for reporting, this has now been fixed. It was an error that only occurred when loading from 3 or more tags.

Hi,

I have a lot of lyrics that were saved with %filename% name of appropriate track.
They are found if %filename% is in the Artist criteria. But on-line searches do not work with such configuration.

Would you help me to configure a correct search query or make more flexible search criterias in the next releases, please.

Thanks.
