could someone tell me if the xbmclyrics script can somehow be modified to display during music video playback, like on yahoolaunch.  the reason i ask is because i enjoy watching the videos but kinda wish i knew what they were saying sometimes.

my vision is this:  open launchbrowser.  play a video, bring up the controls and select xbmclyrics.  xbmclyrics would have to be modified to only display on the bottom of the screen, similar to captions/subtitles.

is there a way that xbmclyrics can identify the name and artist of video playing and find the correct lyrics online?

i appreciate the help!  i would love to have this script if anyone knows how.  thanks!

actually, i don't think we can draw over a video screen... so can't show lyrics on videoclip...

you can have the effect of drawing over a video.

just activate the correct window. i did this in poker timer.

Quote:if xbmc.player().isplayingaudio():
    xbmc.executebuiltin('xbmc.activatewindow(2006)')
elif xbmc.player().isplayingvideo():
    xbmc.executebuiltin('xbmc.activatewindow(2005)')
sleep(.5)
self.setfocus(self.button)

what if the lyrics panel is opened after video playback is minimized, similar to music? can the lyrics.py script be able to read artist and song title and search it on http://lyrc.com.ar
