Hi guys,
I have been fighting with automating wmplayer but with no success.
It looks to me that using the .OCX would be the best option. I found the
code below on the net but I cannot get it to work.
I can see from device manager that a driver is started by I get no audio
out.
What am I doing wrong guys?
# this program will play MP3, WMA, MID, WAV files via the WindowsMediaPlayer
from win32com.client import Dispatch
mp = Dispatch("WMPlayer.OCX")
tune = mp.newMedia("./plays.wav")
mp.currentPlaylist.appendItem(tune)
mp.controls.play()
raw_input("Press Enter to stop playing")
mp.controls.stop()
I've found that adding PlayItem and sleep seems to work:
#! python2.7
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from win32com.client import Dispatch
from time import sleep
mp = Dispatch("WMPlayer.OCX")
tune = mp.NewMedia(r"./plays.wav")
mp.CurrentPlaylist.AppendItem(tune)
mp.Controls.Play()
sleep(1)
mp.Controls.PlayItem(tune)
raw_input("Press Enter to stop playing")
mp.Controls.Stop()
