Tested "PlayerName=WLM" with Media Player Classic, works in: #track_num#-%Artis%-%Album%-%Track% (in one/first row/ line)
everything else not works .... well it's better then nothing

Media Player Classic doesn't seem to be any good at reading tags. When playing a MP3 file with ID3v2.3 tags, I get TITLE and ARTIST correctly. However, when playing other files (tested FLAC, WMA), Media Player Classic sends the filename (which, in your case, is "#track_num#-%Artis%-%Album%-%Track%") as TITLE.
Nothing I can do about this, unfortunately. I suppose I could try extract information from the filename, but that would be inaccurate at best.
Hi. I posted in the Enigma Support topic, but this question is probably better suited here. I'm having trouble getting any skins that use the plugin to pick up the information from Windows Live Messenger. For example, your Soita skin keeps showing me the error message. Do you have any ideas? Maybe I'm doing something wrong here, but I don't know what.

What player are you using?
Have you set it in the skin?

Are you sure that you're on the latest beta (r832)?
- The error message in Soita is shown only when using an invalid player name, suggesting that you're using a pre-r832 version of Rainmeter.
What did you use as the player name?
- It should be WLM -- not Zune.
If you close Windows Live Messenger and only have Zune and Rainmeter running (try changing tracks), do things work?
Currently, it tries the following sources: http://lyricwiki.org, http://lyrdb.org, and http://letras.terra.com.br. Let me know if you have good lyrics sites in mind -- I'll consider adding them in time for the next beta release of Rainmeter (on Sunday, as usual).

Awesome! (And @ the song choice in the preview image... now it's stuck in my head.)
The lyrics panel I was using in foobar had kinda terrible sources for lyrics, but I really liked its behavior of looking for locally saved lyrics (either as TXT files, synced lyric files, or in tags) before hitting the internet to download and auto-save lyrics. Any plans for being able to automatically save the lyrics NowPlaying fetches?

This should also be fixed in the beta today.
It looks like I need to grab some updates for MusicBee and I'll test it more.

The fetches will be cached as TXT files (into %TEMP%\Rainmeter-Cache) unless embedded lyrics are found. Would you want an option to save the somewhere else?
Mind sharing the name of the plugin? Want to take a look at how it names the TXT/LRC files..
