Windows Media Player is widely used to not only manage huge music collection, but also tocreate and share music playlists across the Homegroup users. Although Windows MediaPlayer provides an easy way to organize music playlists, share media files with network usersand automatically manage music files in pre-defined categories, it doesn’t come with anoption to automatically download and display lyrics of songs. If you’ve been looking for alyrics plugin for Windows 8 Media Player, give Lyrics Plugin a try. It’s lightweight lyricsplugin for Windows Media Player that also supports the latest version – Windows MediaPlayer 12. Unlike other media player lyrics plugins, it doesn’t require following a lengthyprocess to integrate the plugin; just run the installer and it will automatically add the plugin toWindows Media Player.All you need is to install the plugin, play a song from playlist, and it will fetch and show youthe lyrics of current song in Now Playing mode. Lyrics Plugin automatically adds plugin fileinto Windows Media Player Plugins folder, but if you haven’t installed any plugins, then youmight need to create Plugins folder manually. Just navigate to C:\Program Files
(x86)
\Windows Media Player\folder, and then create a Plugins folder. Once done, open thefolder and then install the lyrics plugin. When the plugin is installed, check whether it createdthe DLL file in Plugins folder or not.After verifying the DLL file, launch Windows Media Player, play your favorite song fromlibrary, and then switch to Now Playing mode to view the lyrics.Lyrics Plugin adds lyrics window to Now Playing window, and therefore it doesn’t
automatically scroll the page as currently playing track progresses. Another caveat is, it often
fails to show the lyrics of the song, and sometimes, it displays translated version of lyrics.Nevertheless, the plugin supports adding lyrics of your favorite songs manually.
