Hello,

I just started using the program but I can't get the lyrics to save in the file. It saves fine in txt file, but I want to save in the tags. I select the load lyrics script, apply, update and nothing really happens. I even see the url field is filled with a lyrics site but lyrics tag is empty and the check box for lyrics tag is empty. The same with covers. I'm probably missing some simple step or something, would appreciate the help.

Also most of my songs already have lyrics but they aren't displayed too.

I even scanned for songs with lyrics and get zero matches

The #load_lyrics script tries to find a .txt file with the same name as your audio file in the same folder and then loads and saves it's content to the lyrics field.
The #load_cover uses the same logic but tries to find a file named 'folder.jpg' and save it in the tag.
If the file(s) exist there should be no problems.

Also please keep in mind that you need to only click the 'Script' button.

Got it. For the clueless like me it looks like this:
1. Import pictures/lyrics using tools.
2. Load the script for lyrics/pictures
3. Update

Tested, works. Although, it gets a little messy with the txt files and covers. It would be nice to delete them automatically. Or skip that step when loading lyrics (download to temp folder and delete after loading the lyrics).
