What happens when converting LRC to VTT?

LyRiCs content is parsed into a unified millisecond timeline before being exported as WebVTT. Valid timing and subtitle text are preserved.

WebVTT output uses dot-separated millisecond timestamps and includes the WEBVTT file header.

LRC stores start times only. Lyrics sharing a timestamp share an end time, and offset metadata shifts the full timeline.

Source file format

LRC · LyRiCs

LRC, short for LyRiCs, is a synchronized lyrics format. A timestamp before each lyric line lets music players reveal lyrics as a song progresses.

File structure: A typical LRC line uses a [minutes:seconds.fraction] lyric-text structure. Files may also contain title, artist, album, and offset metadata, and one line can carry multiple timestamps.
Common uses: LRC is commonly used by music players, desktop lyrics displays, mobile music apps, karaoke lyrics, and tools for creating synchronized song lyrics.
Conversion notes: Standard LRC normally stores only the start time of each lyric line. When converting to a subtitle format, an end time must be inferred from the next valid lyric timestamp.

Target file format

VTT · WebVTT

VTT, or WebVTT, is a timed-text format designed for web video. HTML5 video elements can use it through track elements for subtitles, captions, chapters, and other synchronized text.

File structure: A WebVTT file normally begins with a WEBVTT header and uses a dot as the millisecond separator. It may also contain cue identifiers, positioning settings, comments, and metadata.
Common uses: VTT is commonly used by web players, online courses, recorded streams, accessible closed captions, and videos that need subtitles displayed directly by modern browsers.
Conversion notes: VTT supports richer web-caption features than SRT. Cue positioning, voice tags, chapters, and some metadata may not survive conversion to simpler formats.
