DJ

Play audio files, start the next song a few seconds before the current song ends - almost like a real DJ. This project has nothing to do with Cozmo, it is just in the same repository.

play songs without pause, i.e. start the next song a few seconds before the current song ends

optional arguments:

• -h, --help show this help message and exit
• -p PATH, --path PATH path to directory with audio files to play
• -o OVERLAP, --overlap OVERLAP percentage of length when to start next song
• -s SHUFFLE, --shuffle SHUFFLE shuffle yes/no, default=yes
• -r RECURSIVE, --recursive RECURSIVE

To stop playing, press ^C (Ctrl-C, Strg-C,..). Then the current song will be played to the end, next song will not be started, and the program ends. Press ^C again to stop the current song which will be faded out and the program ends.

Prerequisites: VLC media player and python-vlc (VLC python bindings) installed. Runs on Python2 and Python3. Currently it seems to run on Linux only, not on Windows, see issues.

Tested with

• Mint 19.1 under Virtualbox 6.0.12 r133076 (Qt5.6.2) and VLC Media Player 3.0.4., Python 2.7.15rc1 and Python 3.6.7
• Ubuntu 18.04 under Virtualbox 6.0.14 VLC Media Player 3.0.8, Python 3.6.9
