LRC format

dixieknits · 07-23-2011, 09:05 PM

I'm looking for something that will convert epubs to LRC. My grandson just purchased a 5" MP3/video/ebook reader, Poloraoid brand from Big Lots and it wants something called LRC. Is there any convertor that will do this? Calibre doesn't support it..

It will use the e-books from Gutenberg in .txt format, but I don't know what the lrc is. I didn't check further. I hope he enjoys it.

Quote:

LRC is a computer file format that synchronizes song lyrics with an audio file, such as MP3, Vorbis or MIDI. When an audio file is played with certain music players on a computer or on modern digital audio players, the song lyrics are displayed. The lyrics file generally has the same name as the audio file. For example, song.mp3 and song.lrc. The LRC format is text based and similar to subtitle files.

From the MobileRead Wiki on Ebook Formats:

Quote:

LRC, Lyric Resource computer file, is a format that synchronizes song lyrics with an audio file, such as MP3, OGG or MIDI. There are at least two variations of lyric files: simple and enhanced where enhanced can synchronize to the syllable. In general, the .LRC file will have the same root name as the associated music file. These files are supported by multiple music players and software. Of course they can also be used for audio books. The WISEreader N526 has support for these files.

A LRC file that is embedded in a MIDI file will have a KAR file extension, karaoke with lyrics synchronized with the music.
