| Post subject: | Help - Lyrics no longer appear |
Hello, I've just discovered karaoke two days ago and while I get some better software, I have been using Winamp. I have downloaded quite a number of songs that I used to sing but since today, oh surprise, the lyrics won't appear anymore ! Even when I go to a website and open the zips before downloading the songs again on my computer ! Does anyone have an idea of what this is due to ? Is there something on Winamp that I should turn on/turn off ? Does Winamp not memorize the lyrics ? But then again, why wouldn't the lyrics not appear when I want to open the folders on the websites ? Is there a good software I should use, better than Winamp ? I haven't got the slightest idea. Thank you very much for your help. |

You may have "updated" winamp, but more than that, it won't play the .cdg extention IN a .zip folder. You need to "unzip them" to either a folder or area and play them from that. You didn't mention what version you're using, etc... If all else, uninstall winamp and re-install it. Then be careful on what you click on! I never update winamp! BUT my buddy Tig has the newest versions and it works well for him. Go Figure! |

it could be user error and the graphic window has accidentally been dragged off screen... I will lose the graphics window now and then as I change desktop sizes or drag it to another monitor... might try changing desktop size to maximum size and then playing your mp3+g file and see if the graphics window has simply slid off the screen... I change my desktop size to 1600X1200 and I usually will find the missing window...- tig |

if the graphics window has "disappeared" but still active, you'll see the box on the bottom of your screen (right side of the "toolbar")... look for something that says "cdg" or a window that's not got an explanation when you put your mouse over it and hold it there for a few moments. |

I wanted to thank everyone who replied to my post. I tried to follow your advices on Winamp but the lyrics window will definitely not re-open. I really don't know what's wrong (I have Winamp 5.01). Maybe I did something wrong which dragged off the lyrics windows, without realizing it... I decided to download KaraFun and my songs and lyrics work fine on it so I guess I'll keep the latter. And of course, it's much better because it offers many more possibilities that I hadn't with Winamp... I don't know if there are better karaoke softwares (I suppose there are) but meanwhile, I'll use KaraFun which seems swell, at least for someone like me who is a real beginner. Again, thanks to all of you who have answered, trying to help me find the problem with Winamp. I guess it's maybe because Winamp doesn't read CDG or maybe I would have had to re-install it. |

definately not a winamp problem as many of us use it without a problem, and have for years! I know I personally use 2.8 but that tig is working with version 5 without complaint. sometimes you have to right-click and "maximize" a window application. Could also be a naming error. But if you are getting a software to work with ya, then great! |
