What is a .lrc file?
application/x-lrc
LRC (.lrc) is a plain-text lyric format that pairs each line of a song with a [mm:ss.xx] timestamp so players can highlight lyrics in sync with the music. Optional ID tags at the top ([ti], [ar], [al]) carry the title, artist, and album.
How to use a .lrc file
Use an example .lrc file to test synced-lyric parsers, karaoke and music-player display, and conversion between LRC and other timed-text formats.

- LRC Synced LyricsAn LRC synced-lyric file with ID tags (title, artist, album) and four line-level [mm:ss.xx] timestamps — for testing karaoke and music-player lyric sync and LRC parsers.
- LRC — Enhanced Word-Level TimingEnhanced LRC with per-word timings in angle brackets alongside the usual per-line timestamps — the format karaoke and lyric-sync apps consume. Includes the standard metadata tags, an offset field, and a final empty timestamp that clears the display. Simple LRC parsers read only the line timings and silently render the word markers as visible text.
