How would I go about making a music player with lyrics?

For my upcoming game, I want a screen to show the music that’s currently playing along with the live lyrics (Kinda like a kareoke type of system). I’m having trouble trying to start this project as I don’t know how to:

  • Implement the lyrics system (Do I use ScrollingFrames and tween TextLabels into them?)
  • How to make the lyrics match with the song that’s currently playing
  • How to make the lyrics and song sync perfectly and start at the same time (Loading in both the song and the lyric data to the server before playing)

I don’t mind timing and typing the lines/lyrics of the song, but I’m having a hard time trying to start this project. Do you guys think I should just stop this project and gain more experience in programming before diving into stuff like this?

Here’s a reference:

What I would do is to type in the lyrics and timing into 3 textLabels, and when 1 reaches the top, teleport it back down to the bottom to be used again, and change the text to the next lyric line. Seems pretty easy actually.

This answered my first question, tysm! But do I use ScrollingFrames for the textLabels or just regular Frames?

I would use Regular frames. ScrollingLabels would be too hard.
