    Hi Jack.

    There are apps out there that will scroll full (user-entered) lyrics and chords at a specified tempo.
    Look at OnSong, BandHelper, SetListMaker.
    Some can simultaneously play (user-provided) audio.
    (even tracks exported from iReal Pro)

    Sounds like you want iReal Pro to do for you things it isn't designed (or legally allowed) to do.

    Remember, the more completely you "publish", provide, distribute or perform (live, video, written or using any other media) someone's copyrighted material with first obtaining permission, the more likely you are to have expensive legal issues.

    That iReal Pro can display various (instantly transposeable) chord progressions AND generate musical rhythm-section practice tracks is very useful.

    "Better" is often the enemy of "good".

    No worries, Bob. I don't busk. I sing and play only at home for my cats. They ain't talkin', but they don't seem to mind it much. I only have one neighbor and he's a hundred yards away. If he should happen to hear me while walking past my house, he'll think it's my cats.

    I just like having the chords, lyrics and playback all in one place, when I'm learning a song that's new to me. After several times through, I've memorized the lyrics and chords anyway.

    I'm interested in the link you offered, but it's not functional any more.

    Then check out the apps I suggested:

    This is only true if you perform copyrighted music without either having your own PRS certificate, or if your venue has one. In the UK, every venue has a PRS certificate, so unless you're performing outdoors in public, they're unnecessary for performers.

    The cost of the certificates is actually very reasonable.
