Bugzilla – Bug 10018
Lyrics do not display with line breaks.

Lyrics are no longer displayed with line breaks. This results in the lyrics being one long run on text string. Bug 3044 covered this in the past for 6.5.1. I thought creating a new bug made more sense instead of reopening a bug that old but feel free to do so if you disagree. Bug 7845 has an attachment that can be used for testing.
additional info: almost 90% of my tracks (mp3 & flac) with lyrics a properly tagged with the "LYRICS" tag, and they do display the text with line breaks in the WebUI + SBC. I've done a wipe&rescan and it still works (7.3r23938). I would have reported this long time ago :-) Maybe it has something to do with the handling of CR and CR/LF?
Steven - do we have a sample file which fails displaying lyrics correctly? Oh, and no assignee without target ;-)
(In reply to comment #2) > Steven - do we have a sample file which fails displaying lyrics correctly? I was using attachment 3240 [details] form bug 7845 like I mentioned in comment 1 ;)
change 23953 - fix the line breaks instead of removing them. Haven't access to my Mac today, therefore only tested on Windows. Please test on the other platforms and re-open, if this fix doesn't work for you. Thanks!
I have lyrics embedded in most of my MP3 files and I often browse these on the Controller. I am not using the Lyrics plugin, I browse them by pressing right from the Now Playing lists and then choosing Lyrics from the song info screen. Prior to installing 7.3 (23976), the lyrics were displayed on the controller just as I had entered them in the files. Since installing 7.3, the lyrics always have a blank line between every line of text. This is annoying and makes for way more scrolling than is necessary. I am guessing this is a result of this bug fix, but for me it, was never broken. Lyrics were single spaced before and now they are double spaced.
Created attachment 4316 [details] sample file with lyrics that show double-spaced
change 24036 - fix Windows style line breaks on Controller MeSue - please give it another try. Thanks!
Thanks. My lyrics are back to normal spacing.
