[RELEASE] LRC Lyrics - Addon based on XBMC Lyrics

fixed timer issue and update to v1.11

Great script a big thank you

But I have a problem with music titles with a ', ´ or ` in the song title, because no lyrics would be found. Is ist possible to integrate a more fault tolerant search?

And another issus: under Ubuntu 9.10, in some files I have many □ in the text, I think it's a problem with UTF-8 or with the font, but what could I do?

And the last question: Is it possible to integrate something like a reload or lyrics change button, to switch between different lyrics for one file or to make a new search to switch after this the lyrics? For some songs your great script found more than one lyric and the one I selected is sometimes not the best...

the script only get lyrics from a chinese site now, so maybe have some chinese charaters can't display without chinese font file.

add a button to scrape lyrics again is a good idea. but in order to do this, I have to hack the default skin of xbmc.

Thanks for the great script! the only problem I have with this script is that a lot of my music is dutchmusic and the site you are using doesn't have that it did found some english songs.
Is it also possible to use http://lyrics.wikia.com ? or does that site don't support the scrolling?
I know there is an other script CU Lyircs that is finding almost all my dutchsongs but it doesn't scroll

I hope there is a way to have both (scrolling and dutchsongs)

LRC Lyrics need LRC file which have timestamps to let lyrics synchronized scroll. the site lyrics.wikia.com haven't LRC type lyrics.

If you can find some site provide LRC lyrics in dutch, then you can make a scraper for LRC Lyrics with that site, like what lrc lyrics/resources/scrapers/ttplayer/lyricsScraper.py to do.

ive just got onto this from cu lyrics, i like this better, seems to have more options. a couple of requests.
1. is it possible to get the lyrics to scroll in the middle of the screen with a transparent background rather than in a window on the side. i have a $2000 plasma and i dont really wanna have lrc lyrics burnt into my screen.

and 2. i have about 4000 song lyrics on my computer from a program i use with wmp called minilyrics, only problem is that it saves the files all in 1 folder as:
artist - song.lrc
lrc lyrics wont recognize them. is it possible to set file save name type ie. artist - song.lrc
or
make the lookup in the library more general so it searches for root dir -> artist folder -> song.lrc AND root dir -> artist - song.lrc. i dont really fancey renaming 4000 files.
cheers
