Play audio with Python


Your best bet is probably to use pygame/SDL. It's an external library, but it has great support across platforms.

pygame.mixer.init()pygame.mixer.music.load("file.mp3")pygame.mixer.music.play()

You can find more specific documentation about the audio mixer support in the pygame.mixer.music documentation


Try playsound which is a Pure Python, cross platform, single function module with no dependencies for playing sounds.

Install via pip:

$ pip install playsound

Once you've installed, you can use it like this:

from playsound import playsoundplaysound('/path/to/a/sound/file/you/want/to/play.mp3')


Take a look at Simpleaudio, which is a relatively recent and lightweight library for this purpose:

> pip install simpleaudio

Then:

import simpleaudio as sawave_obj = sa.WaveObject.from_wave_file("path/to/file.wav")play_obj = wave_obj.play()play_obj.wait_done()

Make sure to use uncompressed 16 bit PCM files.
