Word-level time-aligned lyric support (Enhanced LRC file)

This took me way longer than expected, but it’s done for now (until someone inevitably finds a bug).
Anyone with test files and/or a current backup of your files: Feel free to try my script lyrict to test, embed or extract synced and unsynced lyrics from and to LYRICS, UNSYNCEDLYRICS, SYLT, USLT tags/frames and .lrc/.txt files. :wink:

@Tolriq I would like to see the word-synced lyrics to :laughing:
As these are also somewhat standardized:

Cannot stress enough how much I want this feature, I got a bunch of songs with syllable/ELRC Lyrics and being able to properly see them in a great music player like this would be the cherry on top.

Looks like Jellyfin will have API support for .elrc lyrics in the next release. I think with WhisperAI and similar models getting better and better at transcribing/aligning text word by word, .elrc lyrics will become more prominent as the manual labor of creating them has decreased significantly.

Is this enhanced lyrics feature really implemented? Or any plan in near future?

I saw the tag as Implemented so asking out of curiosity.

Has this feature actually been implemented? Even after updating to the latest version, it’s still like this:

Filtering was implemented unless your are connected to a server that is supposed to serve them already cleaned up.

Open a proper issue with logs and details.

Do you think you will implement highlighting of single words in the future? Right now you only remove in-line time stamps, right?
