Rachel Tang Posted April 11, 2021 Author Share Posted April 11, 2021 @Mandolo5758 May I ask that is the folder containing these lyrics been added to the "Manage folder" page (which can be accessed through the first item in the configuration page) ?

andrewilley Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 @Mandolo5758 Just wondering, but it might be worth revoking access to those folders (or removing app permissions) and re-granting access within the app, in case it's an Android permissions issue.

andrewilley Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I thought I'd give this a quick try, and I noticed that (perhaps understandably) it throws up errors when you are playing a radio stream in Poweramp. This led to problem #2, I couldn't see how to easily disable it - other than uninstalling, or blocking all of its Notifications at a system level (which I did, but not before I built up 340 error logs ) ************ DEVICE INFORMATION ************ Brand: samsung Device: a70q Model: SM-A705FN Id: QP1A.190711.020 Product: a70qeea ************ FIRMWARE ************ SDK Version: 29 Release: 10 App Version:19 ************ PATHS ************ ************ FOLDERS ************ name: MusicFolders, path: content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/tree/D0D8-84ED%3AMusicFolders ************ CAUSE OF ERROR ************ java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start service net.rachel030219.poweramplrc.LrcService@e66e314 with Intent { cmp=net.rachel030219.poweramplrc/.LrcService (has extras) }: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1 android.app.ActivityThread.handleServiceArgs(ActivityThread.java:4552) android.app.ActivityThread.access$2000(ActivityThread.java:274) android.app.ActivityThread$H.handleMessage(ActivityThread.java:2134) android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:107) android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:237) android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:8167) java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Native Method) com.android.internal.os.RuntimeInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(RuntimeInit.java:496) com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:1100) Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDS Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Ok, here's a stupid question but, how do I create a ".lrc" file? Does this automatically create one or do I need some other way to do this? And then the .lrc file goes into the same folder with the music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachel Tang Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 @JDS The lrc files could usually be found by searching for "lrc + <name of the song>", which are formatted as described in Wikipedia and are no more than plain text files. After saving these files from the websites offering them, you can rename them and put them into the same folder with the music. Hope my words help!

JDS Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Seriously? Are you saying that a person has to manually go out and search for the lyric file for each and every song? Wow, that would take forever! Surely there must be an app that could automate this process? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 There probably are programs to automate this process, but neither Poweramp nor this plugin are such apps. They are merely designed display what has already been provided with the music. An even better solution would be to have the lyrics embedded within the audio file, like the other tags and artwork, which can also be the case. PA can do a Google search based on the Title and Artist tags, but the accuracy and relevancy of the results can be a bit hit-or-miss (like any search).

I've been using the Lyric Show 3 component for the Foobar2000 audio player to sync each line of lyrics, one row at a time as they play. It saves to a .lrc text file to the folder containing the audio file (mostly mp3s) with the same file name. Lyric Show 3 automatically searches & retrieves synced lyrics as the songs play. Way back before I was using Crintsoft MiniLyrics which seems not to be maintained anymore. I replaced Foobar2000 Android with Poweramp a couple years back and am super pleased with it. I installed this LRC plugin last year, but like@Mandolo5758I've never gotten it to work. Like him I set the top level of my mp3 library in the 'Add A Folder' setting and ticked 'Include sub-directories'. But I've only see a ghost of some lyrics a couple of times. Maybe my old 6.0.1 OS can not handle it. And I'm not good with Android. Having synced lyrics to mp3 files for 10-15 years now, I'd really love to see this plugin work on my phone like Foobar2000 has done for so long now. Will be checking back to read more feedback on this. Sorry for so many words... I'm old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 @MarkA95 This PA plugin does not download anything in the way that the foobar plugin does, it only display lyrics which are already present on your local Android device in a 'sidecar' .LRC file. However if foobar has previously downloaded and created a <songfilename>.LRC file and saved it in the same directory as the song file, this plugin should be able to show it.

Andre Yup, Been doing that since soon after Winamp and the Xing MP3 compression app was released in the late 90s! I'm guessing my 6.0.1 Android OS might be having a hard time though.

But that sounds like a great tool for quick mass-downloading all lyrics in your library. I don't see where it's putting them though. I'm guessing in *.lrc text files that seem to be petty much the standard. I was looking at writing them to id3 tags, but searching the mp3tag forums, looks like writing synced lyrics to id3 tags hasn't been worked out yet.
