Hello,
As per title. Tried all I know, a quick process, sorry.
I'm using 9.4.2, panels ui, and it's wonderful. I don't want to associate Minilyrics with Foobar, just to use it as an alternative source to foo lyrics db plugin, but Minilyrics will not start with Foobar, have tried the last 3 versions (of Minilyrics), plus with foobar 9.4.1, no luck.
I don't embed the lyrics into the file or use them for tags, I like the lrc versions, and download them to a default folder.
Minilyrics recognises and works fine my other player - Jetaudio - but it's a loooong way to go about getting all the lyrics I want. However, if I use Jetaudio and dl the correct lyrics Minilyrics finds to the default folder, Foobar will display them fine.
Thanks for any help. Have searched here and mailed crinsoft, no reply yet.
Using XP, FWIW.
Edtied for clarity, having a bad English day!
Full Version: Minilyrics Not Recognising Foobar
I use minilyrics with foobar and prefer external .lrc files as well. the foo_ui_minilyrics.dll should go in your main foobar directory and NOT in the components directory as one might expect. To change wether or not minilyrics loads with foobar you'll want to change this setting in minilyrics:
Tools> Preference> Setup
Under the "Run MiniLyrics When Players run" subsection check/uncheck the checkbox:
[ ] Foobar2000
If you would like to manually load minilyrics, such as with a foo_run event linked to a button .. you will need to execute MLStart.exe in the minilyrics directory.
Tools> Preference> Setup
Under the "Run MiniLyrics When Players run" subsection check/uncheck the checkbox:
[ ] Foobar2000
If you would like to manually load minilyrics, such as with a foo_run event linked to a button .. you will need to execute MLStart.exe in the minilyrics directory.

Thanks. Still no wiser though!
1. Can't find the foo_ui_minilyrics.dll anywhere, although I had it before a mass delete.
2. When I try to run MLStart.exe, I get the boxes to check which media player I use, the default language, and that's it. Am I missing something?
Edit - Looked at the Minilyrics config settings:

I know nothing about this sort of thing, but should there not be a "Foobar2000=1" line or similar? Tried adding one, but nothing happened.
Thanks again for any help - the time I'm using to try to get this to work, I maybe could have got all the lyrics I need via Jetaudio, but I'm determined to get better with foobar - guilty at using others hard works and configs
Problem solved, not sure how! Replaced the Minilyrics dll, working fine.
Yotsuya, have now read all your posts on Minilyrics, really helped me, many thanks.
