The linked plugin seems to work spottily as of 3/2009 - and lyrics display requires not just milkdrop support but milkdrop actually running. And the old version of milkdrop, too (1.04 - 2.0 seems to be unsupported). but with the newer versions of EvilLyrics, there's actually a better solution that doesn't depend on milkdrop running in winamp and should work with any player EvilLyrics works with - no extra plugins required!

Open EvilLyrics
Go to Settins -> Advanced -> Other Options
Under the Other section:

[SaveCurrent] 1

(instead of 0)

Also, set EvilLyrics to automatically download karaoke files.
This will keep a file for songs that are playing you can read with the built-in File function of Smartie:

$File(C:\Program Files\EvilLyrics\lyrline.txt,1)

Tada! Hope this helps others.

Just like droppedd said no extra plugins required! Just $File(C:\Program Files\EvilLyrics\lyrline.txt,1)...

There is another interesting file in evillyric folder that shows the whole lyric of the current song (if you don't have the karaoke file): C:\Program Files\EvilLyrics\nowplaying.txt



If someone knows, how to switch between the lyrline.txt (if the karoke is running (the line of the file change) and the nowplaying.txt (if the karaoke is not running (the line in lyrline.txt is just the title of the song)...please post it !

I try in actions:

Code: Select all

if $File(C:\Program Files\EvilLyrics\lyrline.txt,1) <> $WinampTitle then EnableScreen(20)

but I think it's conflict with my another actions:

Code: Select all

if $WinampStat = playing then EnableScreen(2)
if $WinampStat = stopped then GottoScreen(1)

Someone can help?

Is there a plugin to scroll a file from the beginning to the end with a vertical scroll?

I finally do it. I create a new theme (theme nr2) with the winamp screen and the evillyris karaoke screen. And in actions:

Code: Select all

if $WinampStat = playing then GotoTheme(2)
if $WinampStat = stopped then GotoTheme(1)

For a better synchronize to show the screens, I put 2sec for winamp status screen and 30sec to the evillyrics screen.
