LyricsX needs to be restarted after each song

[Ein-Tim]

Environment

• macOS Monterey 12.5.1
• MacBook Air late 2020 (M1)
• LyricsX version 1.6.3
• Spotify for macOS (Apple Silicon) 1.1.93.896.g3ae3b4f3

Describe the bug

When I start LyricsX before I start playing a song, LyricsX won't work (=won't show the lyrics). So I start LyricsX while I play a song and it will work. However, after the currently playing song ended and the next one starts, LyricsX again doesn't work and needs to be restarted.

I got same situation, i belive it's a bug.

[arifth]

i got the same issue , need to restart lyricx after every song

[JosMurray]

I have the same problem than @Ein-Tim: macOS 12.6 LyricsX App Store Version 1.6.3 (2350) Spotify para macOS (Intel) 1.1.94.870.gf994cb0b

[sahakaori]

macOS 12.6 LyricsX App Store Version 1.6.3 iTunes also can't search Lyrics

[LLuna-a]

@ddddxxx It seems like the author is currently unavailable, and hasn't been responding to any messages sadly. I think almost everyone has this issue no matter which version

[LLuna-a]

i wrote an applescript that restarts it every 15 seconds if anyone interested i can post it

[eiche77]

@LLuna-a it would be appreciated if you post the scripts. :)

[LLuna-a]

@LLuna-a it would be appreciated if you post the scripts. :)

@eiche77 https://github.com/LLuna-a/LyricsX-Temporary-Fix here I published it it's not efficient at the moment I will rework it to simply restart it beginning of a new song

[LLuna-a]

also, @eiche77 if you understand the apple script can you help it with the more developed version I couldn't find a way to loop it it just works once and stops

[LLuna-a]

any news from the developer? can someone talk to him on telegram?

[Ein-Tim]

@ddddxxx Can we expect a fix for this issue from your side anytime soon?

[EraserCN]

The same issue for me. Ventura beta 11

[RadioHeadach]

same

[augustido]

Same to me

@ddddxxx The second and later responses from NetEase won't contain the Set-Cookie field in the header, so the compactMap just makes the publisher finish. We should change it to a normal map:

LyricsKit's 0.11.3 version(which is required by the latest version of LyricsX) is not included in any branches. I've created a PR based on the master branch: https://github.com/ddddxxx/LyricsKit/pull/16

[LLuna-a]

it seems like the problem is solved thanks to @jjaychen1e edit: sadly it only works for the songs I listened to in the past (I don't know maybe it finds new ones but I tested in a couple of songs but it couldn't find some) it does not find new lyrics but can show old ones without restarting the app

It's not merged and released yet, did you test it with your own build? For me, the cached lyrics work fine all the time, only new songs cannot fetch the lyrics. My commit fixes this but has not been merged.

sorry, yes I tried building my own must made a mistake its worth waiting the official merge then cached ones always had worked for me but it cached the first 2 3 ones I opened that's why i thought it worked

你好，感谢你解决这个问题。请问你可以告诉我如何在电脑上修改这里的代码吗？因为我不太懂代码，我下载了lyricskit 的code，但是它和lyricsX好像没法关联到一起。我在lyricsX的文档里（右键显示包内容以及下载作者放出的源代码里）也没有找到和你提到的这段代码相关的地方。感谢你！ Hi, thank you for solving this problem. But could you please tell me how to change the code in lyricsX? I don’t know CS very well, I downloaded the lyricsKit, but it can’t work when I open lyricsX. I don’t know how to make it work, I also can’t find something related to the code you wrote in the files of lyrics. Thank you !

You can download the fixed version here. Note that it's not an official release, I build it in the debug mode with my Xcode, but it should work as expected. LyricsX.app.zip

Update: I've re-uploaded a universal version so it can work on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Thanks a lot, it works on my Mac.

[Jechin]

The source of the lyrics is only NetEase, there is no QQ and Kugou, can this be solved?

Sorry, it's my mistake. I turn off other services when debug the code. Here is the updated version: LyricsX.app.zip
