DESCRIPTION
dacapo is a lightweight music player, which shows fullscreen coverarts, pictures, metadata and even song-lyrics (unsynced and synced) stored in the audio-files. It needs Gtk+ and GStreamer.

It will only show pictures that are stored in the audiofiles. To display them in a proper order they have to be tagged the right way (i.e. Frontcover=3, Backcover=4).

To display lyrics they have to be found. This goes like follows:
Simple and not synchronized lyrics will be displayed as pictures. These kind has to be stored in the audiofiles. You could use the tags <unsyncedlyrics> or <lyrics> to store them.
Snycronized lyrics ("Karaoke") will be searched in this order:

1.  in the audiofile in the tag specified in the config

2.  in the audiofile in the tag <syncedlyrics>

3.  in the directory specified in the config with the same name as the audiofile but with the extension *.lrc

4.  in the same directory and the same name like the audiofile but with the extension *.lrc
