[Bug 539975] New: Amarok is not able to fetch lyrics for songs.
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=539975 Summary: Amarok is not able to fetch lyrics for songs. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 7 Platform: PC OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Applications AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: malv_star@hotmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.3) Gecko/20090909 SUSE/3.5.3-1.2 Firefox/3.5.3 Amarok has a function for fetching lyrics for songs in your playlist that is enabled by default. This function does not appear to work at all in version 2.1.1 that ships with Milestone 7. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Amarok 2. Populate the playlist with valid files (ogg format) 3. Play a song with the central lyrics view open Actual Results: The lyrics window in the centre displays the error message stating that the lyrics could not be fetched and that the user should check their Internet connection. It also displays a TypeObject error. Expected Results: The lyrics should have either been displayed or (if the song is not in the lyrics database), it should mention that this song has no lyrics available online. This issue is a known problem with Amarok version 2.1.1 according to the developers. Suggest updating packages to Amarok 2.2 beta2, which contain fixes for these issues, or removing the default lyrics script and instead using the Ultimate Lyrics script by default. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When it is "mp3", there is no problem and the lyrics are fetched but when it is "m4a" for example (even though the track details are correct and the lyrics should be normally fetched), the lyrics are not fetched. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(MP3 is not supported - are you sure you're using Milestone 8?) Surely the audio format shouldn't make a difference? The software would surely be looking at the tags and not the file format. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

However, there are no Novell's packages for 'mp3' support and I wanted to test if the bug is present when playing 'mp3' files. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It involves the least amount of work as far as I can see. Hopefully one of the Amarok maintainers will be prepared to make that change or go to Amarok 2.2 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I would still suggest either moving to Amarok 2.2 or changing the default script to Ultimate Lyrics as LyricWiki also appears to have issue retrieving lyrics if the title is not an EXACT match for whatever is in their database.
