I have configured Amarok so that it uses MySQL. Setiing it up was pretty
easy. I just followed the instructions.

As you might know it can look up the lyrics. The neat part when
connecting it to MySQL is that it fetches the lyrics and places them in
the database as well, so they are localy available.

My question is if the is a setting that can go fast through songs (e.g.
just play several seconds of a song) so it can fetch the lyrics it
already knows.

Next question is if it is possible toplay only songs where the lyrics
are unknown, so I can after the first step play thise songs, look up the
lyrics and update the music database.

I am at 200 lyrics by just going to the next song the moment it has
looked for the lyrics.

I must say a LOT of Zappa and Santana is unnown. Yet also a LOT of Zappa
is known. e.g. The mudshark interview is known. LOL.

automations would be nice. :-D

And "Catholic girls" One of the funniest songs ever, together with

F.Z. never made bad lyrics.
Although he said that the lyrics must be there just because
the people don't want to listen to instrumental music.

I've been thinking to familiarize myself with this a bit:

Have you seen it?

I've been too busy with Gallery lately to do anything else :)

Well here's a selfless plug for my buddies streaming music web site live:

http://nobodyforpresident.net/

What do you think ?

P.S. Not real high quality video as it is just a dsl connection but still
pretty good music. Some of it is his original..

Not always playing but still amusing.
