TTML vs LRC Format Comparison

Timed Text Markup Language (.ttml)

  • XML-based timed text format
  • Used in broadcast and streaming delivery pipelines
  • Stores cues with begin and end attributes
  • Good for structured subtitle interchange
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tt xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/ttml">
<body><div>
<p begin="00:00:12.500" end="00:00:16.800">First line of lyrics</p>
</div></body>
</tt>

LRC Lyric (.lrc)

  • Designed for timestamped song lyrics
  • Uses compact [mm:ss.xx] line timestamps
  • Supports common metadata tags such as [ar:], [ti:], and [al:]
  • Works well for music players and karaoke workflows
[ar:Artist]
[ti:Song]
[00:12.50]First line of lyrics
