We are developing a mobile app to follow along songs and lectures with transcript.

Because we need to follow the audio with the transcript we decided to use LRC format, specifically the Enhanced version. This should work fine in the final product, but where can I find an example of this type of file?

I don't mind the content of the audio. I need just a sample enhanced lrc file to develop the app and make a MVP version

check out webvtt; i don't know how to create .lrc but sounds similar to webvtt. you could create .lrc from .webvttt: github.com/brenopolanski/html5-video-webvtt-example – albert♦ Dec 19 '18 at 14:39
webvttt looks ok, but it does not support word stamp, which we need. If this wasn't required we could use regular srt files – Nicos Karalis Dec 19 '18 at 14:50
i do not see word stamp on the wikipedia page for LRC format; what is that – albert♦ Dec 19 '18 at 17:48
Stamp are the time tags [mm:ss.xx] and <mm:ss.xx>. They represent the time that a word or phrase is relevant – Nicos Karalis Dec 19 '18 at 17:57
vtt has timestampps like 00:00:00.500 --> 00:00:04.000 more here github.com/brenopolanski/html5-video-webvtt-example/blob/master/… – albert♦ Dec 19 '18 at 18:51
