  • Is this for specific media files? If yes, please upload or send in PM: applies to all media I tried yet. I didn't find any song that worked.
  • Are the files stored locally or on the network? Locally but on a different disk
  • Have you tried updating your music database (from MediaPortal configuration)? Yes, I deleted the old one and updated the new one.
  • Do you see the artist/title in now playing? Yes, always
Thanks for helping

Problem solved
I made some changes in the My Lyrics config.
Now it works.
I'll try later to find out which change did the job.
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem, I tried on 3 different installations of MediaPortal (both 1.4 and 1.5), same "No media playing".

My only solution was to stick with an older version of MyLyrics (1.7.3.118, the issue appeared in 1.8).

Can you please explain what you did in the My Lyrics config in order to make it work?

Thanks!

    @xurr,
    1. What player are you using? (BASS/ASIO/WASAPI/dshow)?
    2. Can you attach logs (with 1.8.x, or at least a screenshot of MyLyrics Settings tab)
    3. When running batch search, do you see results?

    Hi all. I had the same problem. What helped me was ticking the two 'Automatic...' boxes in the 'Find lyric dialog settings' (in the Settings tab of MyLyrics configuration). Give it a try, it will might help you too!

    I will see if those 2 boxes can cause the problem people are experiencing...

    Hope this will help you.

    I had the same problem and found it was enough to just check "Automatic fetch lyrics". For the track in question, My Lyrics then displayed a series of informative messages, ending with "No matching lyrics found". IMHO this is just a problem with the message text. When no music file is playing, My Lyrics displays (logically enough ;-) "No music file is playing". Isn't this the only kind of media for which My Lyrics works? Wouldn't it be enough to just change the message "No media playing" to read "No lyrics available"?

    Thank you rsbrux!
    Same problem here and same solution. Great!
    Since your question from November 2013 is unanswered yet I assume, development of MyLyrics Plugin has been dropped by yoavain ?

    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
