Re: [Muine] Idea for a lyrics plugin

[Brian Nickel <brian nickel gmail com>]

Lyrics are stored in the USLT frame (in 2.4 at least). It's got a byte
describing encoding, then three bytes for language, then a content
descriptor string terminated by a nul character, or two nul characters
if the encoding is UTF16, followed by the string containing the
lyrics.
