Test files sent by PM, but I think I found the problem.

thanks, this should address the issue:

One more issue, but I think it will be trivial to correct.

Running the same tests as my most recent post in this thread, a flac file with both synced and unsynced lyrics in the metadata, no lrc file. When syncing embed only or lrc (does not occur with default), this is written into the synced lyrics tag or lrc file as applicable:

Code

Unsynced Lyrics; [00:00.00]Synced Lyrics

The file has "LYRICS" and "UNSYNCHEDLYRICS" as tags. I realise there is no official standard, but somewhere there was an attempt at a standard either on hyrdogenaudio or xiph.org which just had LYRICS as the tag, so thats the "official" tag MB uses. However MB does also read "UNSYNCHEDLYRICS" for wider compatibility. So for the tagged value, because you are using both then they get concatenated.
However the logic in MB gives preference to synched lyrics and for flac files, the only "offical" way is either a .lrc file or having the "LYRICS" tag set to the synched lyrics.
So if you had a .lrc file it should have worked. It did in my testing

Yes, only when I removed the .lrc file did I see that concatenated result. I guess I'm just an odd use case. But, I think I can deal with that through batch tag editing since unsynced lyrics really seem to just be a legacy support thing, I've yet to need them for compatibility. Thanks for the explanation.

i am going to make a change such that "UNSYNCHEDLYRICS" is not appended if the "LYRICS" tag is present. You would need to rescan the files

Looks good, this is a great feature!

Need help here. My library has lrc embedded in music files. I wanted to sync lrc files separately from music files and I've successfully done so on USB drives and virtual devices. But for some reason, it doesn't work when syncing to a phone. I tried with a moto and galaxy phones no lrc file is copied to the phones. I even tried syncing some mp3 which had separate lrc, but with the same negative result. Is there any setting I'm missing?

the answer is in the other topic you set up
