Whats the fileextensions for these files?

Is it two files(*.mp3 & *.cdg) or one?
Read something about KMF files too...

Are there special mp3-files with the leadsinger muted a bit or just ordinary mp3-files with additional text(graphics?)

all you really need to do is put microphone support in xbmc. Cdgs can be easily converted to .mpg and .avi ..

You don't need to buy the Music Mixer microphone though, they have this advice that adds microphone inputs to any stereo audio source, it's pretty cool, so the XBMC devs don't need to worrry about microphone support at all.

I know this is not a priority yet for xbmc dev, but I would really appreciate this functionality as well.

I found this the other day http://karaoke-dx.sourceforge.net/
It is for windows media player and is for Direct X
It is written in C++ and the sourcecode is available

(from their page)
CD+G Karaoke
Support for .bin and .cdg files in Windows Media Player
Support a number formats of sound tracks: mp3+g, wma+g, wav+g
Karaoke can be played back as full-screen video
Shell extensions - integration with MS Windows Explorer
Availability for non-standard applications, such as CD+G to .avi or .wmv conversion, writing video discs
Possibility to play back URLs

Maybe someone can convert this for XBMC use

Currently no planned support for this till after 1.0, and I'm not sure how soon it'll get done even then. I'm not sure what's happened with neversaid, I've heard nothing about this from him.

Well maybe we don't have to wait for xbmc to add this
functionality. If someone can write (or find) a mp3+g player
for linux, then we could use gentoox to play them. One other
option would be to use the winamp cd+g plugin for windows
through vmware in gentoox but i'm not sure if that would be
fast enough.

I don't know shit about programming for xbox or anything but.. What's the problem with this add on in XBMC.. I mean It already can play MP3 files. Isn't CDG file more like pictures than "video file"..?

Specs for CDG:
