Overview

SongHub is a free karaoke platform documented across jpdcs's public GitHub repositories. Its PC edition is described as an offline karaoke application for Windows that uses the user's own legally obtained song files. Related Android and Smart Link projects extend the experience to phones, tablets, Android/Google TV devices, and remote control.

Key Features

• Song library support for MIDI, MP3, MP4, CDG, and Chorus formats.
• A searchable song list built from user folders, with search by song number, title, or artist and optional duplicate filtering.
• Karaoke presentation with two-line or four-line lyrics, per-word highlighting, title and next-song screens, reservation queues, background video, fullscreen mode, and animated score styles.
• Playback controls for key, tempo, melody, chorus/MPX, pause, stop, and next; Smart Link can control the system from another device on the same network.
• The Android edition adds phone, tablet, and Android/Google TV support, D-pad navigation, custom .sf2 soundfonts, MP4/MP3 playback, lyric styling, and video, slideshow, USB, or camera backgrounds.

How It Works

1. Install a release for the target device.
2. Point SongHub to folders containing your own karaoke content, or create a User Library Content Database on the PC edition.
3. Scan the folders and search the generated list by number, title, or artist.
4. Start a song, manage the reservation queue, and adjust pitch, tempo, lyrics, media, or remote controls while singing.

Use Cases

• Families and home karaoke fans can build a private library from files they legally own and run a Windows setup without an active internet connection.
• Android users can use a TV, tablet, or phone interface, while another phone acts as a Smart Link remote for searching, queueing, and playback control.

Pricing and Availability

The official repositories describe SongHub as free, offline-capable, and without activation or subscription. The PC README recommends 64-bit Windows 10/11, 2 GB RAM, and onboard graphics or a GPU; Android documentation states support from Android 6.0 through Android 17+. Downloading prebuilt files or sample song files may require internet access, and the project asks users to use legally obtained content for personal use.
