Where does Sonixd fetch lyrics #433

Hi everyone, and thanks for the incredible airsonic client!
I've found myself wondering why most of my songs don't show lyrics (even though are incorporated as a tag), and some of those show the lyrics but are wrong. So, i'm guessing Sonixd is fetching lyrics from the net. Where can i change the setting? I can't find it

I am pretty sure Sonixd doesn't have any of its own lyric fetching built in. Instead the lyrics come from the server via the getLyrics API for Subsonic (and the equivalent API for Jellyfin - I'm not familiar with Jellyfin's API). Depending on your server, they may fetch lyrics in different ways. Navidrome for example only fetches embedded lyrics at the moment.
