i was wondering if it would be feasible to integrate support for evillyrics into xbmc. in case you are unfamiliar with evillyrics, it's essentially a lyrics searching program. but it's a large cut above any similar programs. it searches multiple lyrics sites (will even default to a google search if the standard sites return nothing). then it returns the lyrics, filtered for content so that only the lyrics are shown. the filters and sitelist are maintained server side and updated regularly. as i understand it, all the input el requires is "artist - title."
as far as where i see el fitting into the program, another button added to the osd while playing music would seem fitting. opens a partly transparent screen, lyrics displayed in contrasting color, with the essential el controls across the top or where ever looks best.
on the el website there is a contact email for developers of music programs interested in being supported.
"developers, do you want evillyrics to support
your player? [email="[email protected]"]drop us a line[/email]"
