Using Eden with Metropolis, I installed the CULyrics add-on. I can't see how to get the lyrics to display when I play a music file.

Using Confluence as the skin, I can display them from the 'full screen' control menu - but don't seem to get the option when I switch to Metropolis.

That's expected if you're using Metropolis from the official XBMC repo. This was added after the last official release.

You can either install Metropolis from the passion repo to get the latest (possibly unstable) releases, or if you prefer, Stoli is releasing a new version to the official repo on August 1.

Thanks for that - I gave the latest release a spin, and it all works Smile

I did lose some stuff - the steampunk theme which I was using doesn't seem to be there any more, but I'll wait on the release version and see if it comes back before digging too deeply into it

It should be there - did you get the skin from Git or the Passion Repo?

Link in your sig appears to be broken...

I found my old addons/skin.metropolis/media directory contains a Steampunk.xbt

while the new one, addons.skin.metropolis.svn/media directory does not

Is this the issue?

I'm not sure if this is something that I have handled incorrectly in grabbing the latest, or something missing?

You can find it here : http://passion-xbmc.org/addons and select 'Add-on repository'
Download the zip, install it from add-on as zip, go to theme/skin and download the Metropolis skin. (There are also some very good simple games available on the repository...)
