Hi fellow users,

For those who are using ncmpcpp (ideally on stable like me but differences can 
be interesting as well):

1) Does lyric fetching work?
Not for me. Indeed, each integrated lyrics service (lyricswiki.com, 
azlyrics.com, genius.com, sing365.com...) returns "Not found".
Only "the Internet" returns something different: "The following site may 
contain lyrics for this song: http://www.google.com/url?q=XXX 
<http://www.google.com/url?q=XXX>"
The final outuput is "Lyrics were not found" and indeed my ~/.lyrics folder 
stays empty.

Of course, I've tested on numerous & well known songs, with no avail.

I've not seen a bug filed on BTS, only noticed the GitHub issue 
https://github.com/ncmpcpp/ncmpcpp/issues/416 but the provided recommendation 
is to install a git version from the Arch User Repository...

2) In the media library, when "all tracks" is selected for central column 
"albums", is there a way to display on the right all songs sorted by name but 
not sorted by album first?
For me, it seems that this column can only aggregate all tracks, sorted by 
album and then by name. Not just by name, whatever the album is...
I haven't seen a dedicated parameter in the config file.
3) Do you succeed in modifying tags for opus songs?
For example, in the tag editor, I can change tags for flac songs with no 
problem.
But when I change tags for opus ones, I have no error message but the tags 
remain unchanged.
Maybe there is a dependency needed? If so, which one(s) please?
I only have libopus0, libopusfile0 and opus-tools for the time being.
4) What do you like the most with ncmpcpp?

I've installed it very recently on a single user computer and its high level of 
customization is definitely remarkable (especially song&column formatting).
Even if the software seems to have everything one could ask for (current and 
other playlists, advanced search, filters, both directories & media library 
views, visualizer, every shortcut imaginable), I haven't seen exclusive killing 
features so far.
Do you see some specific ones or is it the "whole set" that has charmed you?

Thank you in advance & have a great sunday :)
