How can I use QtMultimedia
in pyqt5.
I am using Windows operating system.
I researched about QtMultimedia
but I still don't know how to download it, can you help me?
If you have PyQt
already installed, then you only need to add this to your code:
import PyQt5.QtMultimedia
If you don't, then you can install PyQt
with the pip command pip install PyQt5
.
To use it, check out the PyQt source code where they include examples of QtMultimedia
That's all there is to it. Here is one quick example you can use:
def load_soundtrack_playlist():
"""
Loads the play list of the soundtracks and replaces the file name with the full path.
A playlist is a list where each entry is a list of two strings: file path, title
"""
global soundtrack_playlist
# create playlist
soundtrack_playlist = QtMultimedia.QMediaPlaylist()
soundtrack_playlist.setPlaybackMode(QtMultimedia.QMediaPlaylist.Loop)
# read information file
data = utils.read_as_yaml(constants.SOUNDTRACK_INFO_FILE)
# add the soundtrack folder to each file name
for entry in data:
file = constants.extend(constants.SOUNDTRACK_FOLDER, entry[0])
url = qt.local_url(file)
media = QtMultimedia.QMediaContent(url)
soundtrack_playlist.addMedia(media)
