From Audio Lyrics to Video Subtitles
LRC files are designed for audio playback, where each lyric line appears at its timestamp and persists until the next line begins. When you need those same lyrics as video subtitles, ASS provides styling, positioning, and visual effects that LRC cannot offer. This converter reads LRC timestamp tags, converts minute-second timing to ASS centisecond format, generates a complete ASS script with default styles, and outputs Dialogue lines ready for Aegisub editing or video embedding.
Input Format
LRCLRC is a lyrics file format where each line of text is prefixed with a timestamp tag in [mm:ss.xx] or [mm:ss.xxx] format. LRC files contain optional metadata tags for title ([ti:]), artist ([ar:]), album ([al:]), and offset ([offset:]). LRC lines have start timestamps but no end timestamps; each line persists until the next begins.
Output Format
ASSASS (Advanced SubStation Alpha v4+) is a styled subtitle format with [Script Info], [V4+ Styles], and [Events] sections. Dialogue lines carry Start and End times in centisecond format, style references, and text content. ASS supports fonts, colors, outlines, shadows, positioning, and karaoke effects.

Frequently Asked Questions
LRC uses [mm:ss.xx] format (minutes:seconds.centiseconds). ASS uses H:MM:SS.cc format. The converter extracts minutes and seconds from LRC tags and maps them to the ASS time format. For example, [01:30.50] in LRC becomes 0:01:30.50 in ASS.
Yes. The converter reads [ti:] (title), [ar:] (artist), and [al:] (album) tags from the LRC file and incorporates them into the ASS [Script Info] section as Title and information fields.
Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermarks, and no file size limits. All processing happens in your browser.
LRC lines have only start timestamps with no explicit end time. The converter calculates each line end time as the start time of the next line. The last line gets a default duration (typically 5 seconds) since there is no subsequent timestamp.
Yes. The ASS output opens in Aegisub where you can add karaoke timing tags ({\k}, {\kf}) for syllable-by-syllable highlight effects. This is useful for creating karaoke videos from LRC lyrics.
Enhanced LRC (word-by-word) uses multiple timestamps within a single line for syllable-level timing. The converter reads the line-level timestamp for the start time. Word-level timestamps are not directly converted to ASS karaoke tags but the text content is preserved.
