MinimServer doesn't currently use the contents of any external files to populate tags and it would be a significant amount of work and added complexity to add this for .lrc files. Some tagging programs (such as Mp3tag) have an "import" facility for doing this which seems like a reasonable solution.

Now I see that this feature would require much effort on your side.

What you suggested for importing lyrics was a nice tip. I downloaded and slightly modified a custom script (see link below) in mp3tag and now it can quickly find lyrics of a song in Genius Lyrics website and embed them. Most of the times the search is successful. It remains the problem that if you replace the mp3/flac file with another one (eg with a higher quality version) you have to repeat the process. But in general it is faster than a purely manual process. The script is posted by user bugzero in the following page:
