Lightweight music player prototype
« on: July 03, 2019, 01:14:58 pm »
This is the prototype of an (at the moment) extremely minimal music player. All music must go in the music folder, which will be created when the program first runs. Due to an underlying restriction in pygame, some mp3 files can't be played.

LMP 0.0.0 (Github repo)

Have you considered using something like VLC in place of Pygame? Pygame has a load of baggage associated with it that a console music player will never use.

Though in that case, you'd be basically reimplementing the console music player that's already in the VLC lib.

Thanks, I wasn't aware of VLC python bindings. I'll look at them soon.
