Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gridlock - 2024-05-07

I updated my Jellyfin instance to unstable and rescanned my entire music library, but for songs that have the lyrics metadata tag (I checked with ffprobe) Jellyfin doesn't detect any lyrics... I'm not sure if there's some step I'm missing, or a plugin I need to enable?

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gnattu - 2024-05-07

You need to perform at least a "Search for missing metadata scan" to have tagged lyrics be picked up

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gridlock - 2024-05-07

I ran both a "search for missing metadata scan" and a "replace all metadata" scan, but neither got the lyrics picked up

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gnattu - 2024-05-07

Do you have external lrc in the folder? If you do then the internal lyrics will not be extracted and you have to manually delete all external lrc files.

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gridlock - 2024-05-07

no external lrc file in the album folder. this is the ffprobe output, let me know if it's expected to work or not:

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gridlock - 2024-05-07

I searched my library and found some songs that have external lrc saved alongside the files, and Jellyfin picks up those lyrics. It's just in the files where the lyrics are embedded in the metadata tags themselves that don't seem to work

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gnattu - 2024-05-07

Can you do ffmpeg -i file.opus -c:a copy file.ogg and see if remuxing to ogg container helped? Taglib may have trouble dealing with raw opus's tag.

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - gridlock - 2024-05-07

Remuxing it to ogg worked - now both of the files show up with the lyrics. I suppose this is a limitation of the library? Though it shouldn't be that hard to fix, could you send a link so I could take a look?

Also - this happens with mp3 files too. Here is the ffprobe output for an mp3 file with embedded lyrics that Jellyfin also does not detect:

RE: Jellyfin 10.9 not picking up lyrics embedded in songs - Chaphasilor - 2024-05-07

I can confirm that issue with MP3s. But it seems like this is because TagLib-sharp only reads the "USLT" (unsynchronized lyrics) and "SYLT" (synchronized lyrics) tags. Mine are tagged with "lyrics-eng"...

This lib has not being updated for 2 years and has a lot of bugs open: https://github.com/mono/taglib-sharp/issues?page=1&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen

And you just search for mp3, there is a few.
