What's new in Karaoke Lyrics Editor 2.2
Nov 3, 2017
- This version introduces several long-requested features, which will help you to make the editing faster.
- The main new feature is real-time lyric testing support - if it is enabled, any change you make in the
- editor while the lyrics test window is open, would be propagated to the test window immediately. Also if
- the song is being played, the player can also seek back for a set number of seconds, allowing you to test
- the timing better.
- The sound output also switched to use Qt Multimedia's QAudioOutput instead of SDL, and you should now have
- less issues with sound on Windows.
- Other features include:
- Added support for importing KaraokeBuilder lyric files (thanks Ivan for providing examples).
- "Test lyrics" button now reload lyrics without restarting the song.
- Upgraded to a modern FFmpeg.
- Added a button on the test window to find the start timing mark for the currently played lyrics.
- When incorrect timing sequence is detected, we now print not just the line number, but also the timing mark value.
- When exporting CDG/Video, the editor now remembers the exported CDG and video file names.
- Added commands to change the block text vertical alignment: @%T for top, @%M for middle, @%B for bottom.
- Added highlighting for special character sequences starting with @.
- Big thanks and credits for this release to Dario Abatianni, who submitted over seven patches for the features above!

New in Karaoke Lyrics Editor 1.4 (Jan 17, 2013)
- Audio player switched to FFMpeg/SDL instead of incredibly buggy and unreliable
- Phonon. No more "cannot play this file" error on Win32.
- Added improved export in CD+G format with a preview dialog and easily configurable options.
- Improved the CD+G tester which allows playing any CD+G file, not only the one
- generated internally. Therefore it is now possible to do several exports, test them all and see which one would suit you the best.
- Added support for the video and image backgrounds (Edit/Insert picture and
- Edit/Insert video). Any lyrics can use multiple backgrounds, which will be switched at specified times. Note that all existing lyrics formats are based on text and do not support backgrounds (it will be ignored when exporting to, for example, LRC format). Therefore it is only relevant for CD+G and video export.
- Added support for video export. You can now export your Karaoke song together with music, lyrics and the background into a video file!
- Numerous improvements and bugfixes.
