Author Topic: TUTORIAL - How To Run MiniLyrics On Launch Of AIMP 4 (Read 84116 times)

AssassinLV · « **on:** January 18, 2016, 17:21:11 »

Here I'll describe the steps for getting the MiniLyrics work on the launch of New AIMP.

First of all - we know that AIMP4 does support WinAmp plugins - and we will use them.

So steps (MiniLyrics auto start):
1) Create in AIMP subfolder "Plugins" new folder "gen_MiniLyrics"
2) Copy from your MiniLyrics subfolder "Player-Plugins" the file "gen_MiniLyrics.dll" into the Folder you created in step 1)
3) Open Notepad
4) Write in it (without stars):
***[MiniLyrics]
***WorkingFolder=YourMiniLyricsFolder
5) Save the file in folder you created in Step 1) as "MLPlugin.ini" (DO NOT SAVE IT AS *.TXT FILE!!!)

NOTE: YourMiniLyricsFolder should be full directory (for example: WorkingFolder=E:\MUSIC\MiniLyrics\)

Steps for Downloading Lyrics issue:

I guess this is a problem with their servers.
Try to add these 2 lines to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts :
74.208.224.110 minilyrics.com
74.208.224.110 www.minilyrics.com

You need admin privileges to do that.

Strange.
I did not in the instructions.
But after installing it was necessary to choose the plug-ins for the players.
I set the Windows Media Player (x64), and everything works.

Mate, I follow all the steps and is not working. Sometimes the programa download a lyric, but it doesn't work like a .lrc file. I mean, there are never a sincronized lyrics.

Please, if you solved the problem, let me know..Thanks!

OMg the plugin is pretty shit – so small base of lyrics

Work perfectly ...
just install mini lyrics and voila ... the lyrics just came out.

I did all the steps provided by facebookgeorgepicktor. It works but I must launch MiniLyrics manually each time I launch AIMP. Someone knows how to make that MiniLyrics launch automatically?

By now I have the solution to launch both programs with an autohotkey script, but probably it will be more efficient to fix Minilyrics some way such that it launch automatically when AIMP launches.

Try to delete the folder C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Minilyrics

Well, same machine, same versions of Minilyrics & AIMP. No-one knows why this procedure doesn't work anymore, after the format of my machine and the installation of the latest 1809 version of Windows 10. This will stay a mystery. LoL. But...
I did a desperate movement. I did the opposite!

1) I changed the executable file from AIMP.exe to AIMP3. EXE
2) I executed the setup of Minilyrics and software routine found the needed executable, and created by its own the .dll file and the .ini file, INTO ROOT "Plugins" folder of AIMP.
3) I just simply created the folder "gen_MiniLyrics" and copied these 2 files to that folder (I leave the copies of these 2 files untouchable into 'Plugins" folder of AIMP).
4) I tried to play a .mp3 file and followed the usual procedure to open the .mp3 files always with AIMP software (it was like a new AIMP installation). The .mp3 files changed their icon to something new (probably the old icon for .mp3 of AIMP2).

That was all...

NOW MINILYRICS STARTS AUTOMATICALLY WITH AIMP

Here's an alternative solution. Patched via hex editor gen_MiniLyrics.dll
