- Portuguese
- Russian
- Serbian
- Spanish
If you want to help translating the script in your language or update an existent translation follow the instructions from README inside script directory.
Note that comment from script.spec is also translatable.
[/li]
[li]Notice:
- It's suggested to turn off other lyric scripts like default LyricWiki.
- Some ideas (codes) are taken from Glyrics, LyricWiki, Lyrix and Wiki-Lyrics.
- Serially web sites change themselves, which can cause the script stops working for the site. Script adaptations are required when a site changes its "template".
- Script can automatically (without google support) search only sites which URL can be constructed solely by artist and title.
- The script is usually installed in ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/scripts/ultimate_lyrics/ or in ~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok/scripts/ultimate_lyrics/
- It's possible to disable loading of Ultimate Lyrics in ~/.kde/share/config/amarokrc or by removing Ultimate Lyrics installation folder
- Defaults settings can be changed in main.js when GUI settings doesn't work.
- The script is not automatically updatable. Occasionally you have to update the script manually from Tools->Script Manager->Get More Scripts->Update
[/li]
[li]To do:
nothing planned
[/li]
[li]Known issues:
- The script uses system language settings (chosen by GDM) instead of kde regional settings (can be altered in main.js).
- The script should work properly with Qt framework 4.5.x or 4.6.x, but may have problems (like missing GUI settings) with an older version.

I am trying to get this script to work in amarok 2.5 on OpenSuSE 12.1 / KDE 4.7.4
I deleted the folder "~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok" and any amarok related file in "~/.kde4/share/config" to start with a clean installation of amarok. Unfortunately this did not help.
Ideas anyone? Thanks.

Also see my post here:

And this discussion:
http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/multimedia/470399-amarok-2-5-issues.html
Until the problem is solved (make "qt4-qtscript" compile with QT 4.8) the only way to get back your scripts is to downgrade QT.

Upgrade to Lyrics Plugin version 0.4

My request is: Add the ability to store the displayed lyrics to a plain text file into the music file's folder, with the same name as the music file as well. This is the most simple and compatible way to store lyrics in my opinion. I can even view the lyrics on my cheap 2005 mobile this way. Plus this way the lyrics get saved to the music folder, which is what I want when I'm up for sharing the music.
This would be so great! No other lyrics plugin I know of does this. Thank you so much in advance!

Are you still working on it ?
With amarok 2.4.0 reloading lyrics don't work at all.

stixoi.info currently is not supported.
It does not give an option to enable it.
I modified the main.js but again stixoi.info does not work.

Have an option to prioritize the romanized versions before looking for the regular version if they don't exist.
My sites.js looks like this:
const siteDescriptors = {
"lyrics.wikia.com (Romanized)": {
title: "{artist}:{title}\/roman Lyrics - ",
(...)
url: "http://lyrics.wikia.com/{Artist}:{Title}/roman",
(...)
},
"lyrics.wikia.com": {
title: "{artist}:{title} Lyrics - ",
(...)
url: "http://lyrics.wikia.com/{Artist}:{Title}",
(...)
},

thank you very much for the great script!
Would it be possible for the script to save the lyrics of a song to the file tag (at least for mp3 files, to ID3-tag)? Could be a killer feature :)
Thanks!

a "save to tag" function is what would make this perfect.
As a side-note: Does it work as intended if the lyrics are not even saved to amaroks database (where there is a "lyrics" table, referencing the unique URL [rpath] of the "tracks" table), but have to be fetched from the web each time a song is played?
I'd hope for some misconfiguration on my side here, but I have no idea what went wrong to cause this.

I've looked into a source code and found a function String.prototype.capitalize in string.js which seemed to be a most likely reason of the wrong capitalization. Then I've followed the link to the site of this function's author, where its code was most probably taken and found an updated version of that function. After replacing the function with a new version all seems to work fine for me.

I can't include musicas.mus.br because site's URL doesn't contain artist and title strings. Only site's which URL contains those strings can be searched by UL.
