Those are good looking screenshots! Yes, I do still support the Lyrics plugin, work permitting. How does iPeng work? Does it get the Lyrics from SC using HTTP? Did you modify the SC Lyrics plugin? If so, perhaps you could send me the new plugin so I can get an idea of how big a change is involved. Perhaps what's needed is a plugin for the plugin. I'm in the process of adding a CLI interface for the Lyrics plugin. This was primarily intended for use by the Jive Controller so that I could remove duplicated Lua + Perl code. I see no reason that the CLI can't be used by iPeng. This way you'll get the raw lyrics data without having to scrape HTML, and iPeng specific code could be removed from the SC plugin. What do you think? I don't have a timescale for this work, but if there's interest I could move it up the stack. As for Karaoke, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LRC_%28file_format%29 . Parsing the timing info was the easy part. The tough bit is synchronising it with what you hear.
