Luke 42077 Posted October 20, 2019 Posted October 20, 2019 We'd have to figure out where it would fit into the design of the now playing screen. 1
Rodiefs 7 Posted October 20, 2019 Posted October 20, 2019 Does a lyrics plugin exist for Emby? Something to show the lyrics of a song while being played. It doesnt show in the Plugins catalog, so I assume one doesn't exist? +1
aspdend 177 Posted October 21, 2019 Posted October 21, 2019 To combine a couple of feature requests - I would love to be able to see the lyrics over the top of a visualisation (ideally a photo montage) whilst music is playing... +1 again from me for lyrics plugin
chacawaca 109 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Im not sure if this a good one or not https://developer.musixmatch.com/
Luke 42077 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 Im not sure if this a good one or not https://developer.musixmatch.com/ That's the one good one, it just could get a little costly.
chacawaca 109 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) https://www.lyricfind.com/ i dont know how it cost. i dont think all the free one are legal or they are for personnal use only Edited October 31, 2019 by chacawaca 1
Rythal 1 Posted December 15, 2019 Posted December 15, 2019 I'm not sure about what anyone else feels on it, but I would think the best place to start would be internal, having the ability to display the lyrics saved within the meta data, and then later on possibly introducing fetching from other sources if it's not in the metadata. 1
jxb1234 9 Posted December 29, 2019 Posted December 29, 2019 (edited) Deezer and plex (both of which I have used, plex i'm trying to move away from) use lyricfind. Maybe worth admin sending an email to them to find out the price. I'd rather not have it if it takes money away from the devs TBH. If i need lyrics, google works for me.

chacawaca 109 Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 https://docs.genius.com/ @@Luke this one maybe
Luke 42077 Posted January 21, 2020 Posted January 21, 2020 https://docs.genius.com/ @@Luke this one maybe Their TOS says it's not for commercial use so we'd have to look at what it would cost us.
dexus 27 Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 +1 for lyrics, but also for cd+g support (preferably in .zip format). I am a KJ, and cd+g is the industry standard when it comes to good sounding karaoke songs. I know kodi support this, but would be awesome to have this available in emby.
skidmarks 199 Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 Think a good starting point is to read the LYRICS tag in existing metadata files. Have a button that would allow a lyrics display? I have LYRICS for 90% of my library embedded into my music files. CD+G support would be great as well, but guessing there is a very limited amount of interest in this.
tomnjerry74 97 Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) Not trying to be a jerk, but honestly emby has too many bugs - some that haven't been fixed for years - and design flaws to worry about before adding something like lyrics support. Edited February 9, 2020 by tomnjerry74 1
KamilKus 0 Posted August 11, 2020 Posted August 11, 2020 Any news on Lyrics Plugin? +100000000 for this
Luke 42077 Posted August 11, 2020 Posted August 11, 2020 Not yet but we are still very much interested in this. Thanks for the feedback.

I would be very interested in this. For example, it would be great to listen to the Broadway Cast Recording for Hamilton, and have the lyrics show up as the music is playing. I think Plex has some implementation of this, and their source for lyrics is LyricFind. ...of course, I can't use Plex for music because they have a months-old bug on Android (TV and Mobile) devices for Friend accounts that causes the sound to distort, and they refuse to fix it. So whether they have automatic lyrics implemented or not is a moot point. Edited August 13, 2020 by Chyron
OrozarBE 0 Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 I would happily pay for a lyrics plug-in. Isn't that a possibility that's easier to implement @Luke? If enough people are willing to pay a little extra if they want to use this functionality it should be easier no?
Luke 42077 Posted September 7, 2020 Posted September 7, 2020 It's just a matter of priorities vs other development but yes it's something we're very insterested in. Thanks.
HyphenZhao 0 Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Hi, I just went through the discussions and exciting to see the developers are still actively working on this! I personally is also a developer. I am having some thoughts and would like to share a bit: 1. I would think it is easier to put lyrics in the same page of player. Put a small button under the album image to switch between album and lyrics. It wouldn't be too complicated to add a similar <div> and a jQuery to control the animation of switching. 2. For the lyrics, if there is no public lyrics database available. Would you consider to let the user to add lyric files into the folder manually? Someone like me may be happy to do it before it can be automatically loaded. 3. It would be amazing to see the system has the ability to list out lyric file names contain same string as the musics. That will give the users a flexibility to select the potential correct lyrics. I am very appreciated that you share most part of this program. Although I won't need the premium part, but I still paid as a support to your contribution. I hope that could motivate more people to share ideas. Best Regards, Hyphen.
