UtkarshVerma Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Poweramp lacks LRC support which is a huge let down for me since I prefer offline LRC files to online lyrics providers such as Musixmatch. The app also lacks timed lyrics support as well as font size adjustment for lyrics. I would have used Musixmatch but here are the key points which are keeping me on the LRC team. - No need for internet - No need for song recognition since we're only loading text from files located somewhere in the storage. Also, song recognition fails for most non-english songs or the lyrics just aren't there on the server, and here LRC files are a huge savior. - Also solves language issues Currently I'm using Retro Music Player which has a great LRC support(though it lacks font size adjustment). It should serve as a good example for implementing this feature. I like Poweramp but the lack of LRC support is keeping me from changing my music player. I would switch to Poweramp as soon as this feature is implemented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 While LRC sidecar files are not supported, lyrics embedded with the actual audio files are (albeit unsynced, as PA does not handle synced karaoke-style lyrics at all).

UtkarshVerma Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 I know that, but those lyrics can't be synced, and for me the presence of unsynced lyrics hardly matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Maybe one day PA will support synced lyrics, but I don't think karaoke is top of Max's priority list. (Yeah, I know it has other useful purposes, but I suspect that would be the main one) Andre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samsung Music have amazing .lrc support, but apart from that Poweramp is the best! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
