Using YouTube to generate the timestamps is a really good idea!

I'm manually recording timestamps while I read/listen to the Bible, verse by verse. Every time I click pause in Pingtype's Media Viewer, it logs the time. It's painstaking, but I'm trying to study each verse while I read anyway, so it's good to let me pause regularly.

There's a lot of LRC data for songs that are used in KTV/Karaoke. You just need to find a good data source for Spanish. In my opinion, listening to music and singing along in church helped my Chinese much more than textbooks. I still lack confidence speaking, but my listening improved a lot when my regular playlist became majority-Chinese (I listen to iTunes all day).
