You can see the id3v2 definitions here:

It's easy to generate test mp3s with either of these by using the program MiniLyrics, an add-on for just about every Windows media player. If you play any popular song in your media player with it installed, it can automatically find and embed either the SYLT or USLT lyrics.

Few people use embedded mp3 with SYLT and USLT, they use TXXX.

Do I get it right that this add-on can display lyrics embedded in mp3 tags? So far I only managed to display lyrics from lrc-files. But I have 16000 mp3s, 80% of them having lyrics in the USLT field. What can I do to let them be displayed? (What does "TXXX" mean, couldn't find helpful explanations? Should I transfer my lyrics from USLT to another tag field? Or are you still looking for test files?)

Cheers harry

My mistake. Need SYLT sample to test. USLT haven't timestamp, so will not support it.

How did you guys get this working?
Where do you get lyrics from?

Not sure what you mean by "scrollable" lyrics. If you want lyrics to be fed in mp3 tag-field USLT, you can use e.g. mediamonkey + lyricator. But those lyrics won't appear in xbmc - so far...

Again, what do you mean by "scrollable" lyrics? Synchronized lyrics?

Yes, minilyrics can write lyrics to the SYLT tag. But it only happens, when you actually play the song. Also, there is the "SYLT Editor", with which you can create, display and edit the SYLT tag of a single mp3 file. But so far I couldn't find something to write synchronized lyrics into the SYLT tag of a bunch of files in batch mode, like lyricator does for the USLT tag.
