i like the implimenting of the lrc support.

in refresh where you have.


would it work better to calculate the time for the next line and use that instead of a hard coded 2.0?

PHP Code:

self.timer = Timer(2.0, self.refresh)
        self.timer.start() 


would it work better to calculate the time for the next line and use that instead of a hard coded 2.0?

Good idea! I'll try this. Thanks!

fixed some bug, update to v1.02

Change to calculate the time for the next line. thanks Nuka1195

Have you test this script? some user say sometime freeze the xbmc. I think it because of using timer.
