About LRC (.lrc)

LRC was designed for synchronized lyrics rather than video captions. Each line begins with one or more [mm:ss.xx] tags marking when the line should appear; the line stays visible until the next tag. Music apps and karaoke tools read LRC, and it works well for short, single-line captions.

About TTML (.ttml)

Timed Text Markup Language is a W3C XML format for captions and subtitles. It underpins broadcast standards such as EBU-TT and IMSC and is required by many streaming platforms and accessibility regulations. Each <p> element carries begin and end (or dur) attributes and the caption text.

What changes when converting LRC to TTML

Text, timing, and xml:id identifiers are converted. Styles, regions, and layout metadata are not preserved, and inline <span> formatting is flattened to plain text with <br/> becoming line breaks.
