README.md

audio-visualizer-python

This is a little GUI tool which creates an audio visualization video from an input audio. You can also give it a background image and set a title text.

I have tested the program on Linux (Ubuntu 14.10) and Windows (Windows 7), it should also work on Mac OS X. If you encounter problems running it or have other bug reports or features, that you wish to see implemented, please fork the project and send me a pull request and/or file an issue on this project.

I also need a good name that is not as generic as "audio-visualizer-python"!

Dependencies

You need Python 3, PyQt4, PIL (or Pillow), numpy and the program ffmpeg, which is used to read the audio and render the video.

Installation

Manual installation on Ubuntu

Get all the python stuff: sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pyqt4 python3-pil python3-numpy
Get ffmpeg/avconv: You can either use avconv from the standard repositories (package libav-tools) or get ffmpeg from the website or from a PPA (e.g. https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ubuntu/ffmpeg. The program does automatically detect if you don't have the ffmpeg binary and tries to use avconv instead.

Download audio-visualizer-python from this repository and run it with python3 main.py.

Manual installation on Windows

Download and install Python 3.4 from https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
Download and install PyQt4 for Python 3.4 and Qt4 from http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download
Download and install numpy from http://www.scipy.org/scipylib/download.html. There is an installer available, make sure to get the one for Python 3.4
Download and install Pillow from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/2.7.0
Download and install ffmpeg from https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html. You can use the static builds.
