If the lyrics have timing information, we already do this.

Hi, why not use lyrics in Emby? Do your lyrics have timing information?

Luke,

 

i do not think so, i have took the work a round,  i have scan the libary with the Foo200 or the mediahuman a several times.

But the lyrics are not scrolling with te music, so no there will be i think no timing information will there.

Why not just get timed lyrics and continue with Emby?

Is there any hope for a lyric plugin at this point? I tried using MediaHuman Lyric Finder but it, does not seem to like wav files, which is 90% of my library

It really does not get any easier than this tranxuanthang/lrcget: Utility for mass-downloading LRC synced lyrics for your offline music library.

MediaHuman Lyrics Finder is what we mention in our KB: https://emby.media/support/articles/Music-Lyrics.html?form=MG0AV3
Here are a few other programs to download lyrics, some open source.

• Musixmatch: A popular choice with a vast database, often integrated with music players. It can embed lyrics into music files.
  Pros: Huge library, good accuracy, integrates with Spotify, Apple Music, etc.

• LyricsFinder: A lightweight and open-source option that focuses on efficient lyric fetching.

• LyricsX: A dedicated Mac app with a clean interface and a focus on accuracy. It can also embed lyrics.
