[python-win32] Audio file playback solution

[Jacob Kruger]

Will definitely look into/play with that part of it a bit, and, main thing, for now anyway, is that at least it lets me compile this into an executable, along with the implementation/use of a wxPython GUI...<smile>

Stay well

  Hi Jacob,


  The mp3play module is just a wrapper around the Windows Media Control Interface [1]. I use it in a basic (wonky) AudioPlayer module I wrote that combines it with a Tkinter frame. If you dig into it's windows.py module, you'll see that it works by sending command strings with the mciSendStringA Windows API function. My brief reading of the manual for the setaudio command [2] says that it supports separate values for left and right channels. It would take some experimentation but you could work out panning by controlling the left and right volume factors relative to each other.

    Following module does actually offer exactly what wanted - on windows platform anyway - handles MP3, WMA and WAV file formats, and I got it setup under python 2.7, and it also compiles quite happily, along with wxPython GUI, using cx_freeze - doesn't offer stereo panning, but, that's minor:
