added


--- Quote ---For previous/next, the screen is not updated until the track change is completed - and there is even a small gap (on my ipod at least) between the tracke is changed and updating of the UI.

--- End quote ---
Yes, I know. With "previous/next track: ?" I meant: I don't know a good solution to update the UI.


--- Quote ---... I'm not sure if you will be interested in it, but I found it helpful because I have a folder of lyrics/translations that are common to all my music (i.e. I can have two different sopranos singing the same lieder, which of course have the same text).

--- End quote ---
any improvements are welcome. I think I won't ever use it, but someone else may find it useful too.


--- Quote ---I did capitalize them as I wanted ;-). I'm just suggesting the idea to you (and secretly for my benefit of not having to sync with your source everytime you changes it). It's probably really an issue of personal preference, but I like consistency when the rest of rockbox is properly capitalized.

--- End quote ---
There is a point in consistency. I hope I have all of them capitalized.


--- Quote ---I'll look into it next week when I have my physics and math problem sets done. The plugin keymap looks quite different from the core, so I'll have to look at it a bit more.

--- End quote ---
no hurry


--- Quote ---On another note, the backlight does not seem to behave as expected when there is power from USB. Instead of staying on when I ask it to, it turns off after the timeout defined in setting.

--- End quote ---
fixed (use functions in helper.c)

I am very interested in this plugin... awesome work so far!

Um... just a question, most of my mp3s have the lyrics embeded in the 'USLT' tag field (UNSYNCEDLYRICS).
Is there any chance of adding support for this field?? I have over 1100 with lyrics in them.
Also, is there a limit to the amount of characters that can be displayed total?

There's a patch for this (#2999). It seems like it is out of date and the programmer is waiting for Metadata On Buffer. Now that MOB is in svn, but I don't know if he is still interested in doing it.

Edit:
USLT support added. It's maybe not the best way to view USLT with the sncviewer.


--- Quote from: rangi_chip ---Also, is there a limit to the amount of characters that can be displayed total?

There is a limit, but I can not tell you the exact maximum amount of characters. It depends on some factors (encoding, screen width, font).
The maximum characters per line is 511, but it also depends on your screen width. A line will be wrapped if it exceeds the screen width. The maximum of wrapped lines are 7. You can have at most 299 lines of lyrics.

Thank you very much.
I am keen to try this patch out, but I don't know how to:

Install it into RB. Could you please tell me what to do? When I click the .patch link, it's just a whole heap of text. What do I do with this.

And how do I activate the viewer? Just back up to the plugins menu and select it from there?

Sorry, I'm new to RB.

AlexP:
This is off topic for this thread, but briefly:

The patch alters the source code for rockbox.  You need to set up a build environment, download the source code, patch the source with the patch, then compile the source code to get the build you put on the player.

Have a look at the SimpleGuideToCompiling wiki page.
