Plexamp lyrics display garbled code ~

It is not sure whether it is the problem of text support or the problem of file format coding. Now a lot of music lyrics are garbled.

Does anyone know how to solve this difficulty?

I upload a lyric file here~

Do the lyrics look the same when you look at them in the web app?
Is the .lrc file encoded with UTF-8?

Hello, thank you for your reply. I think the problem should be the encoding format.
I share a document here for your convenience.

Is ANSI format.

It seems that many lyrics are using this format now. If it is possible, I hope it can be supported in the future. thank you. :two_hearts:

Unfortunately, you got it backwards.
ANSI is an old format, it should not be used anymore.

All subtitle and lyrics files for use with Plex should be encoded in UTF-8.
I’ve converted your file to UTF-8. Try it:

Thank you so much. It succeeded. I didn’t know it would be an old file format.
But I think many old songs use this format. At least I have hundreds of songs like this.:rofl:

I think I will check and solve this problem when I have time.
In addition, I really like Plexamp, which is the best APP I have ever used. Thanks again.:star_struck::star_struck::tada:

You can try and batch-convert them to UTF-8 using an app like Downloads | Notepad++

OK, this looks like it will be very helpful.

I will modify the file format this weekend. I hope everything goes well. Thank you for everything. :smirk_cat::smirk_cat::smirk_cat:
