Or to pause (even a live stream), and to unpause. media = vlc.MediaPlayer("/home/les/80sMegaMix.mp3")īut it won't play until we tell it to, and to do that we call the media object that we created, and tell it to play. media = vlc.MediaPlayer("MEDIA FILE HERE")įor example if I wanted to play a 1980s megamix file on my laptop. Then we create an object, which will store the name of a file or URL stream (for streaming media) which is set between the " ". To do that, in your favourite Python editor we do the following. To use the library, first we need to import the library. So how can I use it? Playing an audio file We will also need to install VLC for our operating system, full details on the VideoLAN website.
VLC is a popular media player for Windows, Linux and Apple devices (there is even a version for Android) and it also has a library for Python 3. lus interface: listening on host "*Console".Ĭommand line initialized.Another Tooling Tuesday, and this time we take a look at an easy way to play media in Python. skins2 interface error: cannot initialize OSFactory user 'cvlc' to use vlc without interfaceĮrror: xdg_runtime_dir not set in the environment main libvlc: running vlc with the default interface. main libvlc error: interface "globalhotkeys,none" initialization failed main libvlc error: d-bus session bus connection failure: unable to autolauch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for x11 main libvlc error: interface 'dbus,none" initialization failed main interface error: no suitable interface module For example:Ĭode: Select all dbus interface error: failed to connect to the d-bus session daemon: unable to autolauch a dbus-daemon without a $DISPLAY for x11 Therefore you will need to specify $DISPLAY to each app. Launching a gui app from cron is one of those situations where it's likely not going to have access. If for some reason a client doesn't have access to $DISPLAY or the X server won't let a client connect you usually get an error to the effect of "could not connect to display". This is stored in the $DISPLAY environment variable. In order for all of this to work, however, client apps need to know the address of the X server. You can even forward X over ssh to work remotely. Clients include the window manager (gnome, kde, xfce, etc.) as well as just about any gui application you can think of. X's job is to sit there and act as a server for clients to connect to. So in Linux, X11 (ignoring Wayland for now) is used for the gui. I think everybody is still learning when it comes to Linux since things are constantly shifting. I am a noob when it come to linux and pi alike so i am learning as i goĬan you please explain this abit in more detail if possible
