Re: [Banshee-List] lyrics plugin (V1.5.5.0) never shows any lyrics

[Arutha <devplace hotmail com>]

Thanks for the suggestion.

Running `Banshee --debug' gives me the following (randomly taken) lyrics
related messages:
[24 Debug 10:24:41.384] The request timed out,
http://www.lyriki.com/Hundred_Reasons:No_Way_Back
[237 Debug 13:33:28.394] Error: ConnectFailure,
http://api.leoslyrics.com/api_search.php?auth=duane&artist=Train&songtitle=Brick_By_Brick
[237 Debug 13:33:28.739] The remote server returned an error: (404) Not
Found., http://www.lyriki.com/Train:Brick_By_Brick
[43 Debug 10:36:00.286] The request timed out,
http://api.leoslyrics.com/api_search.php?auth=duane&artist=Hundred_Reasons&songtitle=Slipping_Away

What I read from this is that Banshee is able to connect sometimes but then
the request times out. But more often it just gives a ConnectFailure or a
(404), depending on the server.
Is it because of this proxy issue? If so, how can I resolve the issue in
Ubuntu?
