Hi!!

Since 2 months now, I've been working on a project I, as many other users wanted to see on my empeg: A lyrics viewer.


I posted a small video of my lyrics viewer in action. You can download it on the yahoo empeg group in the files section. I didn't know if riocar.org was a suitable place for a large "temporary" (1mb) file. If so, I can post it there too. (yahoo is such a crap, but bandwidth is free! ;-)

After a lot of programming (the program isn't that big nor good, but I'm such a newbie in C ;-), this what I finally got today... I'm planning to release a very first version of the program soon (in a week or two), after I make a little clean-up in the code.

The program uses the "official" lyrics tags of id3v2. I used a winamp 2 plug-in, Lyrics 1.22, to write my lyrics directly in the mp3. If you want to start writing lyrics in your mp3, if you do it with this tool, it will certainly work. Support for other lyrics editor will come later...

Work still to be done:

- Detect Pause, FF and REW
- Shutdown cleanly ;-)

The rest is working quite well ;-)


Enjoy!!

Patrick!
