Lyricus Changelog

What's new in Lyricus 1.02

Jul 16, 2012
  • Fix songmeanings support since their big redesign recently.
  • Improve AZLyrics artist matching by a great deal.
  • Cache artist URLs (until quit) to improve speed, especially noticeable when using
  • the batch downloader.
  • Batch downloader: allow pause/resume: press "stop" to pause and
  • "start" to resume again; however, selecting a different playlist discards
  • the saved progress. The tracks in the playlist must be exactly the same when resuming
  • as when the process was stopped.
  • Minor bug fixes here and there.

New in Lyricus 1.01 (May 22, 2012)

  • The built-in updater has changed, and so will unfortunately not work for updating *to* this version. Should work for future versions (from 1.01 to newer versions), though.
  • Fixes:
  • Songmeanings and AZLyrics should now work again.
  • Uses UTF-8 encoding for AZLyrics and Darklyrics, to fix non-English characters.

New in Lyricus 0.86 (Mar 7, 2011)

  • Fixed darklyrics support.
  • Added a menu option to "save displayed lyrics to current track",
  • which simply overwrites the lyrics (if any) to the playing track (not necessarily the
  • track Lyricus is showing!) with the text Lyricus displays, no matter the source of
  • that text.
  • The toolbar spinner is now hidden when not needed.

New in Lyricus 0.85 (Nov 30, 2009)

  • Remove Lyricwiki support due to copyright issues (they were sued)
  • Add support for changing the background and text colors

New in Lyricus 0.83 (Jul 7, 2009)

  • Fixed: Minor case sensitivity bug when manually searching for a track that is in your library, and trying to edit and then save the lyrics. (Previously, case mattered; now, it does not, so no more "track is not in your library"messages unless the spelling is wrong.)
  • Fixed: Cmd-G now works for "Find next", as does Shift-Cmd-G for "Find previous".
  • Fixed: The bulk downloader had stopped listing playlists with later iTunes versions. (Rambling: due to Apple, for some reason, changing a constant to a different value. Lyricus *should* be compatible with both the new and old iTunes versions now - I only have the latest (8.2) to test with, but it's a simple check and it still accepts the old value.)

New in Lyricus 0.82 (Apr 25, 2009)

  • Fixed a bug when adding new lyrics to tracks (namely, when editing a "not found" track, saving the newly written lyrics, and then re-entering edit mode, everything was cleared out)
  • Fixed a bug that caused darklyrics to return "No lyrics" as if it was a lyric (and thus save that string in iTunes) in some cases
  • Fixed "go to song meanings page" for tracks ending with "(live)"

New in Lyricus 0.81 (Mar 9, 2009)

  • Fixed two bugs.

New in Lyricus 0.80 (Mar 9, 2009)

  • New features: lyric editing, "go to songmeanings", bug fixes, UI fixes and more.
