Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Rhythmbox lyrics plugin downloads lyrics to .lyrics, but does not show them always. For example I have file "~/.lyrics/bloodhound gang/i hope you die.lyric" with correct lyrics (the file was automatically created by Rhythmbox and contains line "Lyrics provided by lyrics.astraweb.com"), but those lyrics do not show in lyrics window while song is played. But for another song (same artist, same album) there is a file ("~/.lyrics/bloodhound gang/the inevitable return of the great white dope.lyric" - again created automatically by rhythmbox containing correct lyrics) and it is displayed when the song is played.

I expected downloaded lyrics to be displayed.

It seems, that this does not happen when some of the lyrics servers are unchecked. When I unchecked astraweb and lyrc (that does not respond) in preferences, it did download the correct lyrics and displayed it.

However, for another song (Cirque du Soleil - Quidam) I had to uncheck Leo's lyrics, since it displayed wrong lyrics from there (and then it found correct lyrics at lyricwiki).

package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.11.6svn20081008-0ubuntu4.1
in Ubuntu 8.10
