About LRCGET
LRCGET scans files in a chosen directory for music files and tries to download matching synchronized lyrics from the LRCLIB service. It is described as the official client of LRCLIB. When a match is found, it saves an LRC file with the same name in the same directory as the music file.
The project provides Windows EXE and MSI installers, Linux Flatpak, Deb, RPM and AppImage builds, and macOS builds for Intel and Apple Silicon. On Windows it depends on WebView2, and on some Linux systems audio playback needs the pipewire-alsa package.

LRCGET FAQ
Where does LRCGET save downloaded lyrics?
It saves them as LRC files with the same name in the same directory as the music files.
What to do if audio cannot be played on Linux?
Install the pipewire-alsa package, for example with sudo apt install pipewire-alsa on Ubuntu or Debian-based distros.
What to do if the app will not open on Windows 10/11?
LRCGET depends on WebView2. If Microsoft Edge and its webview component were removed, reinstalling Microsoft Edge might fix the problem.
