Description Deepak Mittal 2010-05-20 11:31:36 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Its painful to see that Amarok being such a good player doesn't have a feature for saving and displaying ID3v2 lyrics.

I used to have winamp with a plugin which used to display lyrics from ID3v2 tags and if it wasn't available it fetched lyrics from web and stored it in ID3v2 tags for future viewing. This came in very handy because my iPod also could display the lyrics from ID3v2 tags.

But even after extensive googling I could not find a single player on linux having this kind of feature. 

I wish to have similar feature in Amarok which fetches lyrics from web only if its not available on ID3v2 and autosave it in ID3v2 for future viewing.

I would also like the same for Cover Arts.
