Chronograph

Sync lyrics of your loved songs
About
Chronograph is an open-source application designed for accurately syncing lyrics with audio timestamps.
You may notice that many of music players support synced lyrics which are highlighted line-by-line or word-by-word while playing? This app was designed to give the community an ability to be the ones who make these lyrics.
Chronograph directly supports publishing to LRCLib. As many FOSS music players use LRCLib to fetch synchronized lyrics, this integration allows users to easily contribute their work back to the open-source community.
If you have a large base of music and just want to download lyrics for all of it, Chronograph also supports mass lyrics downloading. It will try to find lyrics for each of your track on LRClib and save it depending on your settings.
Syncing Modes
- Line-by-Line (Primary): Here, every time you do sync action, timestamp is placed for the whole line of lyrics. This is the most supported format of synced lyrics. - Word-by-Word (Advanced): Designed for true karaoke quality. It places a timestamp for every single word, enabling players to animate lyrics with precision.

- FLAC
- MP3
