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](http://ffmpeg.org/) or from a PPA (e.g. [https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ubuntu/ffmpeg](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/](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](http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download)
|
|

|
|
* Download and install Pillow from [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/2.7.0](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/2.7.0)
|
