At first I want to say "Thank you" for the fantastic SUBSONIC!
Unfortunately the absolutely genial Lyrics-feature works only sometimes. Is there anything I can do to make it better? I love this feature and would like to use it often.
Thanx for your help

it only depends on the song, tag info and if its in the database of the lyrics site. for me, it has worked on the strangest songs (finnish humppa), so i'd say it generally works^^
only thing that comes to mind would be to submit the missing lyrics to the lyrics site (don't know which it is right now, should be in the latest changelog on subsonic site)

Chartlyrics.com - it's a third party's database that is being implemented via their API, so this feature will only be as good as the database of whatever third party is used. If something is missing try to add it online.

That's not the point. The SEARCH doesn't work all the time. Right at this moment I'm listening to "Manu Chao - Dias" > clicking the Lyrics-link shows me the lyrics in a new window. After closing the window and a new click at the link the message "No lyrics found" appears. And that repeats all the time I'm clicking at the link. The lyrics are there, I saw them ONE time...... What's wrong here?
