Changelog

Download and export

image
  • Added optional automatic lyrics export after bulk downloads, available for your entire library, individual albums, and artists. Choose plain lyrics (.txt), synced lyrics (.lrc), or embedding into supported MP3/FLAC files. Automatic export is disabled by default, and embedding still requires enabling the experimental option in Settings.
  • Added download options directly to the Download popup: download for all tracks, only tracks without synced lyrics, or only tracks without any lyrics.
  • Download and mass-export options now remember your preferred export formats across app restarts.

Lyrics editor and playback

image image
  • Improved the word-by-word syncing workflow. Press Z to sync the selected word boundary and advance, continuing to the next line after the final boundary. Added shortcuts for navigating boundaries and replaying lines, plus a next-word hint for narrow segments.
  • Added multi-selection for word boundaries, merging segments with Delete/Backspace, and splitting segments by double-clicking where you want to split.
  • Improved automatic word splitting for multilingual lyrics, including better handling of Japanese text and punctuation.
  • Added a keyboard shortcuts menu, accessible from the keyboard button or Ctrl+/. You can now customize shortcuts, see conflicting assignments, and reset them to defaults. Button tooltips also show their assigned shortcuts.
  • Added playback speed controls from 0.5x to 2x in both the main player and lyrics editor, making it easier to sync fast vocals.
  • Added multiple-line selection and a floating toolbar to shift selected lines' start timestamps backward or forward, or delete them together.
  • Improved line timing controls: syncing a line's start now shifts its existing word timings with it, and Enter also sets the previous line's end. Added shortcuts to nudge line end times by 100 ms.
  • Added word-sync status indicators and color-coded end timestamps to make gaps and overlapping lines easier to spot.

Big thanks to @seijihariki for the word-sync, shortcut customization, and playback speed improvements (#357)!

Library browsing

  • Added search to the Albums and Artists tabs, with the search text carried across library tabs.
  • Improved library search with full-text matching, word-prefix support, and results ordered by relevance.
  • Album and artist names are now clickable in track lists and the Now Playing panel, taking you directly to their library pages.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed writing embedded lyrics to MP3 files (#340 by @M23SNEZ3, fixes #339), including handling malformed language fields in ID3v2 comment tags.
  • Fixed the Download button continuing to spin after a bulk download has finished (#378 by @mzsf, fixes #352).
  • Fixed an error in LRCLIB challenge verification used when publishing or flagging lyrics (#384 by @SollyBunny).

Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to this release!
