Description Jackson Nick 2025-02-24 14:35:41 UTC
SUMMARY
When playing a song with embedded synced lyrics, the song goes on but the lyrics is a few lines behind what's actually being said in the song. The embedded lyrics is fine and this problem doesn't occur in other players, only Elisa.

Haven't tested .LRC files to see whether if this problem happens with those or not.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Elisa
2. Play a track with embedded synced lyrics
3. Wait a few seconds for the song to progress a little

OBSERVED RESULT
After a few verses the lyrics stops refreshing and enlarging the sang verse, then starts to progress in a non-constant rate. Which is  definitely not in sync with the song. 

EXPECTED RESULT
When a verse is being sang in the song, the lyrics show that line according to the timestamps of the embedded lyrics text
