Now Playing screen ... ID3v2

[InGearX]

we loooove Rockbox

is there anyway to display more ID3v2 info on "Now Playing" screen?

on my Sansa Clip Zip I get:

SONG NAME
ARTIST NAME
ALBUM
YEAR
-EMPTY-

NEXT:SCROLL

I really wish to display ANY other additional TAG - in which I would indicate if there are ID3v2 embedded lyrics or not (so I could open them via /.rockbox/rocks/apps/lrcplayer.rock or via a standalone .txt file next to .mp3 file (as lrcplayer.rock sometimes crashes the entire OS when opening some files)

on that note if anyone knows how to extract ID3v2 lyrics from FILE.mp3 into FILE.txt in a batch would be great as this is another great quick alternative ...

thank you ...

I don't think there are any lyric tags available in the wps but you can conditionally add other tags to your theme
see: https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/CustomWPS#ID3_Tag_Info

as far as extracting the lyrics to a text file checkout http://www.mediamonkey.com/

IIRC you can make your own scripts if it doesn't already have the functionality you need

wow cool awesome - thank you !!

I opened
Settings > Theme Settings > While Playing Screen > I have "cabbiev2"

long press > Open With ... > text_editor

go up to get to the very bottom

# Track Info - Album Art
# Track Info - No Album Art

to the last line I added:

Code: [Select]

%iC	= ID3 Comment

Code: [Select]

%s%al?iy<%iy>

Code: [Select]

%s%al?iy<%iy>-%iC

this will display the comment found in the .mp3

now using https://www.mp3tag.de/en/

I can sort ALL my .mp3 to see which have LYRICS
and batch edit the comment tag for ALL at once with something like "TXT"

to indicate there are lyrics that I can see ...
