Lyric icon not shown even if lyric is in metadata
Hi,
I do really appreciate the lyrics feature of songbird (with the add-on Lyric-Master), but I have just found a bug.
Say I fetch from the net a lyric and I save it in the metadata. In the library listing in the "Lyric" tab I will have shown an icon telling me that the lyric is present as metadata in the file. Say I "recreate" the profile (or another user creates it's profile), such that everything is read from scratch again. Songbird scans all the files, creates the library but do not set the lyric icon even on songs where the lyric is present in the metedata!!!!
I find it extremely bad.

Inappropriate?Hi,
while trying to change the fonts of the lyrics I have found the answer.
First: Lyric icon not shown even if lyric is in metadata because the normal songbird way is
1) scan files and create the library
2) install extra adds-on (like Liryc-Master)
3) "no way" (well not straight forward) to force songbird to scan again the files and the metadata in it
this means the files were scanned before that Liryc-Master was installed i.e. no way to have the lyric info of files pre-containing lyrics!
The solution: there is a metedata lyric rescan functionality built in in Liryc-Master options:
Tools --> Options --> Add-ons --> Lyric-Master --> Options --> Scan entire Library for Lyrics --> OK --> OK
I’m happy
CHAMP
