After much time I finally decided that lyricue 3.x is at the point I can call it 3.1 🙂
Since the release of 3.0 a lot of fixes and updates have gone in.
The main things are:

• Works on Ubuntu oneiric, natty, maverick and lucid
• Handling of non-alpha characters in filenames has been fixed up
• You can associate font/shadow colours with a specific background (with a preview) via the media manager
• Dramatic speed increase in advanced search
• You can press enter to quickly add the first item found when searching the songlist
• Lyricue can directly play DVD titles
• Display live video feed as background
• Online documentation included in the application itself
• Video backgrounds play silently for a few seconds in the preview windows
• Smarter adding of image, video and music files to the playlist
• Imports pptx files (via workaround)
• Better handling of different multi-display setups
• Configuration now stored in the database directly
• Preview window added to edit/add song screen

Lyricue 3.1.0 has the following changes since 3.0.41

Precue (the web-based frontend to Lyricue) has been updated to version 1.10

• The entire interface has been AJAX-ified
• Bible verse functionality now works
• Duplicate actions have been fixed

Lyricue 3.0.37 has been released with a number of new features, updates and fixes.

The main change is that we can play dvd videos directly from within lyricue. You can even tell it to jump directly to a specific title.

Lyricue can also handle audio files directly.

Overall performance has improved and it now handles scaling better than ever before.

There have also been a large number of big fixes so stability should be better than previous.
