    The website I used in this video no longer works. It's been offline for a few months and hasn't come back online. I made a new video with a new website that works just like the one in this video, so I really recommend you check out the new version here: ruclips.net/video/_vim0HnsrSY/видео.html

    There is an easier way to edit the lyrics after you import them rather then copying and pasting to a new timing track. Change the following option in preferences. In the File menu, select Preferences, Effect Grid Tab and make sure the option "Double Click Mode" is set to "Edit Text", click OK to Save. After you make this change, simply double click on the words in the timeline to edit them. Or like someone else mentioned, use shift and double click then you can have both options.

    The Aitolyrixalign page seems to be down. Are there other alternatives?

    • @How2Pixel
      @How2Pixel  2 года назад

      It's down again?! It went down a few months ago for weeks, then all the sudden and randomly came back up. I tried running some code on my pc that was suppose to align it itself, but I couldn't get it to work. So I'm not sure of any alternatives. My advice would be to check the website every few days, and if it comes back again upload all your songs and get the lyric tracks. That way you don't have to worry about it going down again.

    wondering if it has to do anything with them being in Singapore. anyway I was trying to get their scripts to work to see if that is a viable work around, and like you so far I haven't been able to get it to work. I will keep checking back to see if you have come up with a solution, and in the meantime i will continue to try and get their scripts to work. I am brand new to all of this and I really don't have 5+ hours to do this! so hopefully we can figure out an alternative or get their scripts working.
    I will post if I find out why the scripts are not working or if the site is up.

      Thank goodness it isn't only me!!!! I've been trying many times as well and keep getting the same error of connection timing out. I wonder if it is because many people are using it right now? I wish there was a software we could download that would do the same thing. Have you tried getting in contact with the people who wrote the scripts? I think they are on github.

    • @How2Pixel
      @How2Pixel  2 года назад

      I think I've found a new website that might work in place of auto lyrix align. I'm doing a bunch of testing with it now to make sure it's not a scam (because they do require you to use an email address to get access to it) and to make sure it works. As soon as I know it works, I'll make a new video about it to replace this one.

    • @danyf3116

      You are not the only one. I've been trying for a week now and still get connection errors. Very frustrating. Wish there was a readily available program that would do the same thing.

    • @How2Pixel
      @How2Pixel  2 года назад +1

      You are probably the 50th person to tell me this, but I think I've found a solution. I'm testing some other websites and I might've found one that works the same way as this one, but I'm making sure that the website is mostly online. I'm definitely going to be making a video explaining the old link is bad, and talking about the new one if it works.

    Quick question, have you noticed the auto align lyric website is unreachable? For 2wks I’ve tried different browsers to reach it, web searches for any information on what’s happening, but no luck so far. I did use it rights after I came across your website and it worked amazingly well.

    So you're telling me I didn't have to spend hours every night sequencing faces? I didn't expect it to be that straightforward. Thank you very much for the tutorial on how to accomplish this; also do you have Discord? I'm in a group on server that includes a section for led lighting, such as pixel holiday displays, and they're attempting to expand it.

    Autorlrixalign has gone dark as of October. I can no longer reach it. I got a notice that the domain name is available from godaddy. I found the site where the code is available for download, but I don't have the chops to implement it.

    • @How2Pixel
      @How2Pixel  2 года назад

      I downloaded the code a few months ago when the site went offline, but then it came back. I was just using it a week ago and its gone offline for months then come back on. Maybe it will come back again but there's no way to tell. I've been trying to figure out how to use the code but its in python and i dont know much about python code. Hopefully I can figure it out and make a video about how to use it.
