I am having a small issue with the inbuilt lyrics tab on the properties window in MM 4.1.0.1692. I don't know if it's a bug or not. I do have and use Lyricator 1.2.1.1, but for this one particular album, it wasn't grabbing the correct lyrics. It's a live album, which is probably why the lyrics were not "exactly" correct. Lyrics.wikia.com has the live album in their DB, but it still wants to pull the lyrics from the studio versions of the songs when I use Lyricator. I am not using the lookup lyrics button on the lyrics tab in MM because it also pulls the studio lyrics.
Anyway, because it won't automatically pull and attach the correct lyrics, I decided to do it manually by copy/pasting from lyrics.wikia.com and then listening to the songs and making adjustments manually. I'm doing this by pasting the lyrics into the "lyrics" tab of the properties dialog box. I find the song in the MM browser list or whatever it's called, then right-click the song and choose properties. Then I click the lyrics tab. I paste the lyrics into the tab, then listen and make adjustments. If I click on OK at the bottom, it appears to work correctly and saves the lyrics to the tag. However, if I push the arrow pointing to the right at the bottom of the window, which says update and next song, the lyrics do not save properly. The first song may have saved OK, but the subsequent songs aren't saving correctly using the arrow. The lyrics are showing as expected in MM, but they do not show in Windows Media Player nor do they show in the tag in the mp3tag (mp3tag.de/en) software. If I do them one at a time and hit OK, the lyrics show in WMP and in mp3tag. I don't know if MM is saving the lyrics in a DB instead of the tag when you hit the arrow, or what the deal is. I tried going back in to the lyrics tab again and hitting OK, and I even closed and reopened MM, but the lyrics still don't appear to be saved in the tags unless I delete the contents of the lyrics tab, hit OK, open properties again then paste them back into the lyrics tab and hit OK again. Not sure if it's a bug or not.
