Convert LRC to MP4

Understanding lrc and mp4 file formats

LRC files are plain text files that contain song lyrics synchronized with timestamps, commonly used for displaying lyrics in music players. MP4 is a multimedia container format that can store video, audio, subtitles, and images, widely used for video playback across devices.

Why convert lrc to mp4?

Converting an LRC file to MP4 allows you to create a video with synchronized lyrics, making it suitable for sharing on video platforms or playing on devices that do not support LRC files directly.

How to convert lrc to mp4

Since LRC is a text-based format and MP4 is a video format, the conversion involves creating a video that displays the lyrics in sync with the music. This process typically requires combining the LRC file with an audio file (such as MP3) and generating a video file.
