Lyrics: Batch + Time-stamped + Stored in Tags ?

Hi –
I’ve been using MediaMonkey for a few weeks and couldn’t be happier. But I could use some help with lyrics.

Is there a recommended approach to achieving the following?
  • storage of lyrics in tags
  • timestamped lyrics
  • found and updated in bulk
I’ve found tools that do some of the above, but no tool (or combination of tools) that accomplish all three. As best I can tell:
  • Lyricator does a great job with batch find and storage in tags, but doesn’t download time-stamped (LRC) lyrics.
  • LyricsPlugin finds lyrics one at a time and doesn’t find time-stamped (LRC) lyrics.
  • EvilLyrics doesn’t appear to find time-stamped lyrics. (EvilTagger can be used to lyrics to tags.)
  • MiniLyrics – not sure I have this right, but will apparently update embedded tags when MediaMonkey exits, though this doesn’t seem reliable. (I cannot find the “context menu” referred to on the MiniLyrics site - http://www.crintsoft.com/mlgetstart.htm.)
Please correct me if I have any of this wrong, and please advise if there are tools, or ways to use these tools, to accomplish Batch + Time-stamped + Stored in Tags.

Thanks,
Mike

Re: Minilyrics - not when MM exits but when MM stops playing the track (or you skip to the next, etc.)

For context menu just right click in the Minilyrics window.

Thank you for the clarification.

I'd still appreciate recommendations for accomplishing the batch update of time-stamped (LRC) lyrics that are stored in tags.

Best,
Mike

unfortunately there is nothing that does all that as such
