Music and Lyrics

Question

I have a song and its lyrics. The song can be played using MusicPlayer class. But how do I show the lyrics of the song and also highlight them in sync with the audio. Words appear and fade with the playback.

Does Android have anything in-built for such a thing?

How can this be achieved?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You need to match the time with the words.

Place each word on a single line with a time stamp. IE:

[00:01]Some
[00:02]where 
[00:03]over 
[00:04]the 
[00:05]rainbow

You can then add metadata for [chorus], [verse] etc.
