Closed Rexadev closed 2 years ago

  • How you think the new feature/improvement would be helpful, or what problem you think it would solve

Very obvious but,

  1. Good for listening to music that the user doesn't speak language of.
  2. Help in learning language.

I found this I don't if will help - https://github.com/Spikatrix/Traly https://github.com/markzhai/LrcCleaner https://github.com/brandonw3612/TranslateLrc https://github.com/slowfog/LrcSpliter https://github.com/marz1877/SyncedLyrics-.lrc_v2

Please provide addition information, as mandated in the feature request template. Closing until then.

Is this even something musixmatch provides? Can you link to any documentation on it?

On the balance of it, I probably wouldn't want to add this anyway (at least without many people asking for it) because of the amount of complication it would introduce.

Add option in setting to turn it on/off.

Add option in setting to turn in on/off.

No. That would be more complication.

I mean on and off option for downloading translations. Not translated lines

jacquesh commented 1 year ago

Maybe, but realistically, probably not. The problem isn't doing the work to add it, the problem is that I don't think translation really falls into the realm of "things openlyrics should concern itself with" and that once its added I have to maintain it for all time or risk the wrath of users if I take it out later in pursuit of simplicity.

@jacquesh reconsider this please
