Lyrics aren't fetched on the first try

[vlnka]

I have a library of about 50k tracks I ran LRCGET on. It found lyrics for most of them which is great.

But when I ran it in the same folder again, lyrics for more tracks were found. I did that several times back-to-back and it always found lyrics for a few more tracks.

Any idea what causes this? Why can't lyrics for all tracks be fetched successfully in one run?

It is expected, you can see my answer in this issue for more explanation: #132 (comment)

I somewhat refuse to believe lyrics for ~30% (about 4k) of my previous undetected songs popped up within 2 hours of the initial fetch

It always redownloads lyrics if a track has only plain and not synced lyrics, maybe that is what is happening? I think it would be more clear if it said something like "Plain lyrics already downloaded" for those tracks

It also seems to always redownload even synced lyrics if you download for a specific album

oh does it? weird

not sure how related it is but this also keep happenings when i'm running a scan on a library where some songs already have their lyrics - multiple lines for the same track

It looks like it's a new bug unrelated to your original post, I'll check this out later today.

It is actually true, you might get a few more lyrics if you rerun after a couple of days (2 hours is sometimes too short).

It always redownloads lyrics if a track has only plain and not synced lyrics, maybe that is what is happening? I think it would be more clear if it said something like "Plain lyrics already downloaded" for those tracks

@fineless71 I think it is not related to OP's issue. You can read more in #30

Regarding the issue where multiple lines show up for the same track, I've noticed that as well. Often happens if I scroll in the list while it's scanning. Happy to provide more info or try to recreate the issue if needed
