Feature description:
Would it be possible to add a togle to show a specific set of lyrics?
My FLAC & OPUS Files utilize a tag LYRICS while my MP3 & WAV files use UNSYNCEDLYRICS
Is it possible in Symfonium to choose which of those tags appears as lyrics for any given track?
Problem solved:
I’ve recently started using synced lyrics, they are great but sometimes they have timing issues or are simply inaccurate lyrically.
The + - can account for most timing errors so that’s nice but I usually have a second set of lyrics from genius that are more accurate & feature a bit more info about parts of the lyrics (who is singing, chorus / pre-chorus distinctions etc.)
Brought benefits:
When I switched to synced lyrics I kept those standard lyrics in the “other” tag field
Ex: a FLAC file has synced lyrics in LYRICS & standard lyrics in UNSYNCEDLYRICS
The ability to swap which field I see from the lyrics setting would be really nice for those times I want a bit more info or to see if there is a lyrical typo.
In some cases I have synced lyrics in the native language but I have a full translation in standard lyrics as the synced version was unavailable.
Other application solutions:
Additional description and context:
I’ve also tried merging the two lyric types somewhat with a pre made script that sort of shuffles two sets of lyrics line per line
Line 1 from set A
Line 1 from set B
Line 2 from set A
Line 2 from set B
…
But that method often fails even with direct line per line translations
I know this one’s wacky but I figured I’ put it out there just to see if it’s feasible. Maybe others are in my same shoes with another method beyond (picking my poison or intensive surgery to join the two lyric types together)
I think a feature like this could be a game changer.
