SRT to LRC Converter
Paste your SRT subtitles or drag and drop a .srt file, and instantly convert them to LRC lyric format. Works in your browser—no signup, no upload, no watermark.
What is LRC Format?
LRC (Lyrics file format) is the standard format for synchronized lyrics. Each line has a timestamp in [mm:ss.xx] format that tells the player when to display that lyric. LRC files are lightweight, widely supported by music players like foobar2000, AIMP, and MiniLyrics, and can optionally include metadata tags like [ar:Artist], [ti:Title], and [al:Album]. Converting SRT to LRC makes video subtitles usable as synced lyrics in music players.
