OpenLyrics

Version: 1.7, released on 2023-10-18 (archived)

Change log:

New features:

Add support for album art or a custom image file as the panel background
Add support for gradients to the background colour preferences
Add support for showing already-passed lyric lines in a different colour
Add configuration for horizontal and vertical text alignment
Add (experimental) support for showing the panel in an external window
Add a source for metal-archives.com
Add a 'skip filter', a titleformat-based way to skip auto-search
Show the active sort order in column headers of the manual search window

Behaviour changes:

Stop asking users to submit metrics after a pre-defined date
Automatically display search result in all lyric panels, not just one
Remove support for horizontal scrolling
Move preferences for searching onto their own page, named accordingly
Add a preferences page for each source with source-specific options
Show a different 'no lyrics' message based on the reason they're missing
- For example tracks marked instrumental will show one message, while
  tracks that are not instrumental, but that repeatedly fail searches
  will show a different message
- This does not apply retroactively: Tracks that were previously marked
  instrumental will still show as having failed too many searches.
  Marking those tracks instrumental one more time will fix this.
Skip auto-searching remote sources when the track has no metadata tags

Bug fixes:

Fix retrieval failing from some sources when no 'album' tag is present
Fix crash when deleting lyrics from tags via the playlist context menu
Fix crash when playing tracks that have no tag metadata at all
Fix LRC offset tags being ignored if they contained a space
Fix a potential crash when opening preferences, caused by corrupt config
Avoid sometimes creating difficult-to-delete folders when saving to file
Fix a case where NetEase sometimes returns garbage results unnecessarily

Supported systems: Windows 32-bit, Windows 64-bit.

Works with foobar2000 v1.5 and newer
