Sounds like you don't understand the issue. I'd assume that currently the software is listening for an event for lyrics. When one comes along, it throws an event and passes the lyric along. Then the function catches it, and runs code to display it. In what world would this take seconds? This can be...

Why wouldn't it work? I use event listeners all the time. An event gets raised, gets caught, and you perform some task. Yes, there may be somewhat of a delay, but nothing that can't be overcome. There's got to be a listener already catching the subtitles anyway, no? Event are asynchronous, you don'...

Hi, nevetheless event wouldn't work for sync as it is asynchronous, you would need callbacks. But you can open a ticket for feature request on https://trac.videolan.org/vlc Why wouldn't it work?

Man. That sucks. Can read different lyrics formats, but you can't do anything with 'em but display 'em.

Will any other .net library do this? I know WMP can have script commands (exactly what I need) but the music would need to be re-encoded to wma, a dying (or already dead?) format.

I'm trying to write an application that can sync things to music. I was thinking that I could just put the cues into a lyrics file and then catch them as they pass through. However. I can't seem to find and events to trap them. Is this possible? Or perhaps a better way to do what I need?
