Picard Sözler is a plugin for Picard that fetches lyrics from the lrclib project. The synced lyrics are prioritized over the unsyced ones. The whole projecss is automated and requires no configuration or API keys. You just pass your files through Picard and the plugin will do the rest.
Some occosional mismatcheds or misses might happen due to the nature of how tracks are matched against the lrclib. That project does not utilize MusicBrainz IDs to query tracks. Instead, the names of artists, albums, tracks, as well as the duration of the tracks are used in combination is used to match an entry. Please see the lrclib API docs for more info on the matter. For these reasons, it is advised to skim over your lyrics.
