Important Notes
Saving and Writing
In the single-song editor, search results, cover selections, lyrics processing, and ReplayGain calculations only update the editor temporarily. Changes are written to the audio file only when you tap the Save button.
In batch operations, tasks like Edit Tags, Tag Matching, Rename Files, Format Lyrics, and Calculate ReplayGain directly process the selected files. Review previews, configuration, and selection before executing.
Deletion and Removal
Deleting a song or batch Delete removes local audio files permanently. This cannot be undone.
Removing a folder only removes it from Lyrico's library index. Local files are not deleted.
Plugins and Online Search
Lyrics, covers, and online metadata are provided by plugins. Plugins must be installed and enabled to participate in search and batch matching. Plugin order in the management list affects search and matching priority.
