Server Version#:1.18.4.2171
Player Version#:all
I do have a Plex Pass. In the past, I know I was able to display lyrics when playing
music. I haven’t done that in a while, but I tried it again starting about a week ago,
and for every song, when I click on the correct icon to display lyrics, I get
a message saying “There was an error loading the lyrics.” This happens on
my Roku as well as the webapp (and I tried several browsers). I don’t recall
having changed any setting on my server in long time. Restarting the server
had no effect.
What do I need to do to find out why I can’t see lyrics any more.
As suggested, I first refreshed the Metadata on one group (ABBA) where
I knew lyrics would/should be found. I waited a full 15 minutes and
still got the error. I then updated the server, and lyrics reappeared for me.
Not just for the one group I had refreshed, but for other songs I tried.
I know the recommended process is to always update to the current
server release. I’m reluctant to do that with any software: I’m more of
a “if it’s ain’t broken, don’t mess with it.” kind of guy. I always read the
release notes for new PMS releases, and if there’s nothing in the release
notes that I care about, I’ll generally wait to update. I didn’t read anything
in any of the release notes (that I remember) related to lyrics.
Anyhow, problem fixed, thank you for watching over the forum and helping
those of us who need it.
