Please add the feature to read lyrics from metafile in audio files (mp3, mp4) when you right click the file in the information window. Thanks

I think there is a need for two modes. First one would be simple text window where you can copy the text. Second would be vout filter that would write lyrics to video output.

Yup, lyrics stored to ID3v2 tags. I think this feature would be nice. it can be included in the information window once you right click the file.
