[QUOTE="mackey, post: 508906, member: 20257"] There are some restrains and limitations of the current plugin-system and in the code for MyLyrics that make it a really hard task for you to achieve the inclusion of lyrics on the NowPlaying screen. It might be possible to enable the MyLyrics plugin from the nowplaying xml file, but the xml file for MyLyrics and nowplaying checks for different skin ID's which could a problem. your second problem tells me that your current changes to the nowplaying file don't start up the MyLyrics plugin which natural is required. Currently it is not possible to start up the plugin from a screen id different from 90478 which is the ID for mylyrics.xml. This calls for a change in mylyrics. I'm pretty sure that the code behind the nowplaying screen needs some changes as well.
