KARAOKE / LYRICS
The player supports lyrics of the .lrc format and can therefor function as a
small karaoke machine. The .lrc format contains text and time marks which
states when the text should be shown. There are a large number of applica-
tions available on the internet as freeware / shareware for creating, viewing
and/or downloading these files to your computer.
Below follows a few recommendations:
MiniLyrics4 from MiniLyrics is a plug-in that works with the most common
media players like Windows Media Player, iTunes, WinAmp etc.
VividLyrics from VividLyrics Development, EvilLyrics from Evil Laboratories and
Leos Lyrics Plugin from Leo R are some other examples of applications avail-
able for creating, viewing and downloading lyric files available on the internet.
NOTE! JOS AB does not provide any warranties or support for the applications
listed above. All rights and obligations rest on respective publisher.
USE .LRC FILES
1. Use one of the above applications or similar to download a .lrc file (see the
individual applications support for how to do this).
2. Name the downloaded .lrc file exactly the same as the .mp3 file (for
example music.mp3 and music.lrc. If the files don’t have identical names
before the file extension the lyric function will not work).
4. Connect the player to the computer using the USB Cable.
3. Move both files (.mp3 and .lrc) to the same folder on the player. Both files
must be in the same folder for the MP-500 to be able to show the lyrics.
ACTIVATE LYRICS
1. Press and hold down the MENU button to show the SETTINGS MENU.
2. Choose GENERAL / LYRIC.
3. Activate lyrics by choosing YES
4. Play the music file.
NOTE!
To turn off the player or switch to another mode (multimedia, text, radio etc)
you first need to stop any music files from playing.
