[RELEASE] Batch Lyrics Download Script

Amet:

Ok the script says .5 so I redownloaded it and sure enough firefox cache just gave me the same file.

I downloaded the latest version and installed. a new MACOS directory was also there.. so it's got to be the latest.

NOTE: script still says .5 though.. so you might want to change that.

Good news: It seemed to work on the 49 files. Now I'll try the directory with 6500 songs in it.

Will let you know.

THANK-YOU again in advance.

Amet:

One thing I noticed is that if you try to change directories... your syntax is messed up and the script crashes. Hitting the default button didn't help either.. so I had to go into script data, and delete the XLM file it creates to reset to your initial directory setting..... which does work.. however has an extra LYRICS directory.

Not a big deal.. easy work around.. however if you want to perfect the script.. your choosing a directory doesn't work. (You actually can't create a new directory to type in the full path or anyhting...)

Great work. I'll try next on the 5950 songs remaining..

This sounds like another great application Amet, however the download link doesn't seem to work - any chance anyone could upload it again. Cheers.

it worked for me...I just tested... http://opensubtitles-osd.googlecode.com/...d_v0.8.zip

That's odd, doesn't seem to work for me, I'm getting:

Google Error

Not Found

The requested URL /files/BatchLyricsDownload%20Script.zip was not found on this server.
-----------------------------------

Just gone to your google code homepage and downloaded it from the link on there - that seems to do the trick. I'll give it a test and let you know how it works on my library of 11,000 songs! Cheers

without debuglogging the script doesn't crash.....but xbmc does.
much better! ;-P

crashlog

I cant see why its crashing

if you feel like crashing it again , try the new version 0.8....

do you mind emailing me the song that crashes so that I can try and reproduce the problem? you have my e-mail?

have you tried XBMC Lyrics with that song?

cheers mate,

Let me know how long it takes for 5950 songs

I have fixed the directory issue, I had it wrong and you could only select the file and not folder. , also you can now create new directory. Default path is still XBMC Lyrics default lyrics location.

Thanks a lot for reporting back on the issues.

Amet, it didn't make it through the songs.. only about 1100 (i think) before the script crashed. not sure why.

I might try again and post a debug log.

If you dont mind post the log, Ronie reported that it crashes if the file artist or a song contains accented characters(Í,Ô,Ò ....), that could be a problem.

I will wait for Ronie to send me the file that crashed on his side and try to replicate the crash.

good thing is that if you do the batch download again it will skip the files that have lyrics already.

Cheers,

Mine wouldn't get past 280(ish) songs but once I installed version 0.8 it seems to be working fine - so far it's scanned about 2,500 songs and still going. I'll keep you posted.... (I'm on xbox by the way).
