CODE SNAPSHOT OF MUSIC PLAYER

INTRODUCTION import pygame
We need an application that will allow us to play or listen to digital audio files. MP3 player from pygame import mixer playlist=Listbox(root,selectmode=SINGLE,bg="black",fg="white",font=('optima',15),width=
is the device to play MP3s and other digital audio files. The MP3 GUI program application from tkinter import * 32,height=7)
attempts to emulate the physical MP3 Player. This program will allow you to play songs, import os playlist.grid(columnspan=20)
music, and all MP3 files on your desktop or laptops.
The main objective of this project is to allow users to play MP3 and digital audio files. To
def playsong():
be engaging for users, the application has to have a simple but beautiful user interface. os.chdir(r'D:\songs')
This GUI project is developed using Python programming language. The GUI aspect of currentsong=playlist.get(ACTIVE)
print(currentsong) songs=os.listdir()
the application is built using the Tkinter library of Python. The interactive part of the
application that handles the MP3 files uses the Pygame and Mutagen libraries. mixer.music.load(currentsong) for s in songs:
You can have an interface for listing the available MP3 files. You can also give users the songstatus.set("Playing") playlist.insert(END,s)
option to list other digital audio files that are not MP3. The users will also expect the MP3 mixer.music.play()
Player to have an interface that shows information on the file that is playing. Some of the
information you can include are the name of the file, its length, the amount played, and def pausesong():
the amount not played, in minutes and seconds. songstatus.set("Paused") playbtn=Button(root,text="play",command=playsong)
Python has libraries that can play audio files, such as Pygame, which allows you to work
mixer.music.pause() playbtn.config(font=('candara',20),bg="white",fg="green",padx=2,pady=0)
with multimedia files in few lines of code. Similar libraries are Pymedia and Simple audio.
These libraries can handle a lot of digital audio files. They can handle other file types, not playbtn.grid(row=1,column=0)
just the MP3 files.

def stopsong(): pausebtn=Button(root,text="Pause",command=pausesong)

CONCLUSION pausebtn.config(font=('candara',20),bg="white",fg="blue",padx=2,pady=0)
songstatus.set("Stopped")
Now, we have our own music player and we can listen to songs mixer.music.stop()
pausebtn.grid(row=1,column=1)
when you work with data. Sometimes working with data could be
very challenging and having your own mp3 music player is very stopbtn=Button(root,text="stop",command=stopsong)
def resumesong():
helpful. In addition, I think that building an mp3 music player or stopbtn.config(font=('candara',20),bg="white",fg="red",padx=2,pady=0)
other applications can really help you to know new Python songstatus.set("Resuming")

programming.
