Free Online LRC to STL Converter

Our LRC to STL converter reads Lyrics input and produces Spruce Subtitle output entirely in your browser. Source LRC timing ([mm:ss.xx] minute-second-centisecond) is converted to STL timing (SMPTE HH:MM:SS:FF frame timecodes). Styling and markup that the target format cannot represent are normalized or stripped, leaving valid, ready-to-use output. The conversion runs client-side, so your subtitle files are never uploaded to a server.

Input Format

LRC

LRC (Lyrics) is a timestamped lyrics format used by music players and karaoke applications. Each lyric line is prefixed with a [mm:ss.xx] timestamp marking when it should appear. LRC files are plain text and are the standard for synced song lyrics in players such as MiniLyrics, Poweramp, and many karaoke apps. LRC has no end timestamps; each line ends when the next begins.

Output Format

STL

STL (Spruce Subtitle) is a text-based subtitle format used in DVD authoring and some broadcast workflows. Entries use comma-separated start and end timecodes followed by subtitle text, with the pipe character (|) for line breaks. The output is accepted by DVD authoring tools and Spruce-based workflows.

Features

Generates a Spruce STL file with the standard comment header.
Converts source timing to SMPTE timecodes (HH:MM:SS:FF).
Uses the pipe character (|) for line breaks as the STL format expects.
Outputs comma-separated start, end, and text entries.

Why Convert?

STL is accepted by DVD authoring tools and Spruce-based broadcast workflows.
STL's comma-separated timecode-plus-text structure is simple to produce and inspect.
STL is useful when a target system expects the Spruce subtitle text format rather than SRT or VTT.
Converting to STL gives you frame-based SMPTE timecodes suitable for video production.

Format Differences

LRC and STL use different internal structures; the converter normalizes the source cues into the target layout.
LRC uses single start timestamps in [mm:ss.xx] with no end time; STL uses SMPTE frame timecodes HH:MM:SS:FF.
LRC may carry plain text; STL supports its own styling model, so unsupported formatting is mapped or dropped.

Common Use Cases

DVD Authoring

Produce STL subtitle files for DVD authoring tools that expect the Spruce format.

Broadcast Workflows

Generate STL for Spruce-based and legacy broadcast subtitle pipelines.

Frame-Accurate Timing

Output SMPTE frame-based timecodes suitable for video production systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

It reads a Lyrics file, parses each cue's timing and text, normalizes the structure for Spruce Subtitle, and writes a valid .stl file. Source LRC timing ([mm:ss.xx] minute-second-centisecond) is converted to STL timing (SMPTE HH:MM:SS:FF frame timecodes).

Absolutely. Every conversion runs client-side in your browser. No subtitle data, file contents, or metadata is ever transmitted to a server.

LRC is plain text, so the STL output uses default styling since there is no source styling to carry over. Text and timing are fully preserved.

Yes, completely free with no sign-up, no watermarks, and no file size limits. All processing happens in your browser, so your files are never uploaded to a server.
