show lyrics in windows media player.
the older versions of wmp have an option for displaying lyrics if they exist in tags of mp3 files. however the are displayed in a really small portion of the viualization window, making it impractical.
I 'd like to be an visualization option in the wmp 12 where lyrics would be displayed covering all visualization part of course keeping the cover art and media info on the left upper part.. thanks
edit: nitrous9200 comments on a plug in with the ability to embed your own lyrics.
A plug in that would search in lyrics-sites and then embed its findings to the id tag would be great, i use iart in itunes for that and i f-king love it. it scans a whole library or playlist and adds lyrics with a great success rate, at least for english songs Sthing like that would be great but i think there might be legal complications as lyrics are copyrighted material and i am not sure how legal these sites are. If anyone know, pls comment.

I'm not sure being an visualization option is a very rewarding career choice :)

Or, at least, Microsoft should revamp these pages
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/plugins.aspx
http://www.wmplugins.com
And add links to *really* popular plugins, like LyricsPlugin, instead of useless 3rd party codecs or DVD decoders.
Is there a working plugin for showing lyrics in WMP 12?
Use google for lyrics

Seriously, use Google for lyrics? Why not have the capability to embed your own lyrics and show them while playing your music? It would be a great feature to have and I never have been able to get it to work in any version of Media Player.

I miss the lyrics plugin that I used to use but doesn't work with WMP 12.
