HI Danny,

Your help got me thru this mess, sort Of-
I am not sure as to whether I got MINI LYRICS or the whole thing, but I am now getting LYRICS when I click on one of my mp3 songs-- I seem t have to double or triple click to get the lyrics to show and it kind of comes on after the song starts.

With Your help, this is still great - Does your display work like as I have described mine , or it sort of perfect?

Hey, thank you for taking the time to help-

Ralph



Ive spent most of the day trying to get that plugin to work and I cant either Windows Media Player - Enable Song Lyrics or at least not properly.Others are having some success with it though.
Ive gone back to mini lyrics works like a charm MiniLyrics - Show lyrics in iTunes, Windows Media Player, Winamp, etc.

Danny

Hi neorican

Glad your getting there. Ok if you open media player and open mini lyrics with nothing playing as below(Please no giggles over my music preferences).

Capture.PNG

Minimise mini lyrics. You should now have 2 tabs in the task bar Mp and mini lyrics.

Capture 1.PNG

Close media player only(Both will close) then re-open media player and mini lyrics should open minimised with it.Select your music to play then just click the mini lyrics tab in the task bar to bring it to the front of the screen. I found if it opened alongside media player it stopped some of the lag.
Also remember the first time it plays a song it has to search for the lyrics, after that they are stored here C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Roaming\MiniLyrics\Lyrics. Which makes displaying quicker.I found the more its used the better it gets.
Have fun
Danny

Mini lyrics

Hi Danny,

I was somehow able to get lyrics ( not ML ), but no more --

About Mini Lyrics , In trying to follow your instructions -- Problem no. 1 is when I go to WMP, I see lists of songs and when I play , I cannot get any BLACK PIC as you display. Therefore no MINI LYRICS -- I must be missing something.

Thanks , Ralph

The black screen you see is one of many mini lyrics themes don't worry about that until you get it working.Firstly make sure the minilyrics plugin is on.Tools\Plugins and tick.

It may be worth un-ticking any others for now.

Then play any song does it work to this point

Hi Danny,

Sorry to bother you so much--

Following your instructions , I now got the ability to see lyrics, BUT still no MINI LYRICS-

Maybe because I did the plug in by that other software , It somehow works and MINI will not work -- I wonder if MINI LYRICS is better-- I would also like to see what you displayed if I could get the mini -

Once again thank you----Ralph


Ok Ralph

The black screen you see is one of many mini lyrics themes don't worry about that until you get it working.Firstly make sure the minilyrics plugin is on.Tools\Plugins and tick.

It a preference thing that's all.Right click on whatever lyrics your getting at the moment, go to skins check always on top and WMP11. Thats the skin im using.

If that doesnt solve it post a screen shot of what you have at the moment

Hi Danny,

I don't have mini Lyrics , but I do have finally by lots of clicking Lyrics --It is probably due to that plug in download that i did via another source( which I think that you tried ).

On this program , I immediately get the lyrics displayed and if the lyrics are not available , something pops up with Edit and Google. if I click o0n GOOGLE it immediately takes me to web site where the lyrics are displayed as per that song amd by the same artist. I then hi light and copy the words and paste it via EDIT above and it is now on the page and it stays there-- I suppose the newly pasted words can now be readily be used for others too.

Does MINI LYRICS do the same or better and should I pursue it.

In your last post , You kind of said to do something with WMP 11 and I am on W7 which i believe only works with WMP 7

Hey Danny, I really appreciate all your help .

Are any of the features on Mini Lyrics better than what I have described above?

Thank You,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Ralph

I think mini lyrics is the best...it's will automatic download and display lyrics without asking you whether you want to save or not...

I am not certain as to what you mean about best,- can you please expain with a little more detail-- Sort of like in comparison to what I stated -- ya know various features - what did you mean by download , etc Is that different ? I only have to use the google feature to get lyrics which are not available which is not too often so far -



I sure do appreciate your comments, thanks, Ralph
