#### Q: How do I use offline synced lyrics?
2018-08-02 05:09:55 +00:00
- STEP 1: Look for a song that doesn't have lyrics.
- STEP 2: Search the web for the lyrics of your desired song (you either have to find a ".lrc" file or lyrics with timestamps for example "[00:04:02] Some lyrics text"). If you find a lyrics file that's great or find lyrics with timestamps you have to create a ".lrc" file.
- STEP 3: Now you have to rename the file you created in this way: <song_name> - <artist_name>.lrc or for better matching copy the <song_name> and the <artist_name> from the tag editor and then rename the file.
- STEP 4: You have to copy or move the file into a location on the SD Card: whatever_sdcard/RetroMusic/lyrics/ and paste inside your ".lrc" file in there.

##### Q: Why has all the text gone white/dissapeared?
Change the theme to Black or Dark and change it back to what you had before.
##### Q: Why some of my songs are not showing in my library?
Try checking up if those songs are not less than 30 seconds, if so head to settings -> other -> filter song duration. Put this to zero and see the songs should start appearimg in the library.
If this doesn't work out for you, re-scanning the media folder should help and subsquently rebooting the device to refresh media store.
##### Q: Why my playlist/playlist songs keep disappearing?
Playlist/Playlist songs disappearing is based on android media store system. Save those playlist as file(Tap on three dot menu next to available playlist and save as file) and it should get fixed.
