Yes, I read about that e.g. for the artist artwork, but I was wondering
about the lyrics feature.
As you may have noticed, I don't update a system that's working unless I
need new features (hence the 7.6.2)
It may be the time to give an update a try.

Yes, could have thought about something like this, since I had a recent
concern about a RAD platform I'm using that was updated to openSSL
1.1.1
(potentially breaking basic SHA hashes in old code)
I'll try something here.

Please find attached a log from 2 consecutive attempts on the (NAS)
7.7.6 version

I read in several places here that some were having issues in latest
builds with those plug-ins.
Anyway, as I said, I'll give it a try someday. If it goes wrong, I'll
revert to a snapshot.

Thanks again for your work and help.
