Reporting
I wish there was a way to figure out which songs had album covers associated with them and maybe even a reporting of Artist, Album, Title, Track
Number, and Genre of the current collection.
By the way, can anyone recommend an auto tagging Lyrics pluggin? I see you can manually add lyrics from eJukebox but, I do not see a way to
automatically do it or display those lyrics in a normal mode.

For Winamp 2.91 I can recommend the Lyrix Plugin V0.25 from Lobo
http://lyrix.best.cd (Caution! it's french )
You can also get V1.0 beta, but I think the older Version is better for me.
There is a Lyrix-Plugin for Winamp 3 to, but while using EJ I have switched completely to WA 2.91 so I'm not up to date with the WA3 Plugins.
Lyrix has auto-lookup and auto-save function an you can easily edit the Lyrics in the plugin-window. And if no lyrics in the ID3tag or in the internet
database are found, you can automatically, or with one click, open a google-search for the lyrics.
With the plugin, you can add new lyrics to their database, with is quite good for the more popular songs.
You will even be added in the "last added"-list
The only thing is, that is sometimes gives an "unexpected error" wich most times means, that it could not write the tag to the file. I
don't really understand why, because it seems, that the problem is, that the file is currently in use by Winamp. But amazingly this is only the
case in 1/10th of the opened files. The others have no problem eith being played and simultaneously being edited. *shrug*
But in any case, you can store the tag, if you stop Winamp for a moment.
There is one last thing. Unfortunatly the lyrics written by Lyrix (or any other lyrics-plugin I've tried) are not compatible with the lyrics EJ
writes, and vice versa. I hope someday EJ will also read other lyrics-types... maybe V3.6??

Tag & Rename can do all that including album cover (yes/no) into CSV, which you can then easily open in Excel, Word, or any database.

I bought Tag&Rename, but have been annyoed by their useless customer support... i've written them many messages concerning bugs and
suggestions, but got no reply. I remember not finding their email at their website, but just a fill-out-form.
Has anyone tried out Abander Tagcontrol? (think that was the name.) It seems like a better and more complex program than Tag&Rename.. but too
complex, perhaps, i never got it to work for me.

Has anyone tried out the Godfather yet? It's freeware & it's gotten some rave reviews lately at some sites that I visit. Here's
one link for it:

I haven't gotten around to trying it out yet, so I don't have any firsthand experience to share.
Good luck!
Steve
