Subsonic Forum

i installed it everything seems to work fine, even podcasts

but the lyrics search never returns any results. is there some special setup i need?
i have the mp3s tagged well, it shows the artist and song accurately, but never comes up with anything

does it save them locally before displaying in some local path that i need write permission setup on? cause i did do a bit of weirdness with the path settings so that i can run subsonic on a share, i had to setup podcasts directory special. do i need to do that for a lyrics directory? if so, what path. if not what else do i need to do?

The interface needs to be updated.

The request to update has already been submitted to the developer.

Hi,
i have recently installed subsonic and i am highly interested in this feature. Since this post is not too old, i would like to know about the implementation status.
Will this be implemented by any chance or is there another way to get to some lyrics?
Cheers
Olaf

Improvements to lyrics search

I'm using 4.7 beta 2 and the lyric search is still useless... It wasn't finding anything, so I decided to try a famous pop song - "Like a Virgin" by Madonna. It didn't find the song when I typed "Like a virgin", but it did find it when I typed "Like a Virgin". Really? The search is so fussy it's even case sensitive? So any tiny little thing different in the song title means it's not going to match? That's not going to be very useful.
