Display Embedded Lyrics

Hi, I couldn't figure out a way to do this so I figured I would ask here.  Is there any way to display embedded lyrics in foobar2000 for Mac?  It doesn't have to synced or anything, just some way to view them and preferably set up part of the layout window to show them for the selected file.  The only way I can figure out how to see them at all right now is going to the metadata editor and double clicking on the tag there.

I'm on Windows but have you checked the foorbar components for something that works on a Mac?

You might try MiniLyrics.   (I use it with WinAmp on Windows but there is a Mac version and it supports foobar2000.)  It supports LRC files and embedded lyrics.  

They have a pretty-good database of LRC synchronized lyrics and TXT lyrics (only accessible with MiniLyrics).   You can configure it to automatically find & download the lyrics and create an LRC file and/or embed the lyrics.  And, it's got a lyric editor.

Thanks for the reply.  I believe the only foobar2000 components that work on Mac are the 4 listed on the Mac install page.  I tried a couple on the page you linked and none worked.  And sadly it looks like MiniLyrics only supports iTunes on Mac.
