Thanks for a great player. I would like to make a request for a lyrics plugin that uses embedded mp3 tag lyrics.
Thanks

  A little late reply, but I just saw this ticket and would like to provide more information:
  
  mp3 tag lyrics are provided via id3 tags -> https://id3.org/id3v2.3.0#Unsychronised_lyrics.2Ftext_transcription
  
  you'll also see a tag for "Synchronized lyrics", which basically includes timestamps with the lyrics (but for me a first implementation with just unsynchronized lyrics would suffice)
  
  other audio formats may provide lyrics via their respective metadata formats, here's a little overview (last two lines) -> https://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Tag_Mapping#Miscellaneous
  
  I think it would be great if at least also unsynchronized lyrics via "Vorbis comment" could be supported, as this should cover other common audio formats (vorbis, flac, ogg, opus), its basically just the entire lyrics as a plaintext comment tag (with newlines)
