Python VLC MediaPlayer –Getting Audio Delay Last Updated : 19 Aug, 2020 Summarize Comments Improve Suggest changes Share Like Article Like Report In this article we will see how we can get audio delay to the MediaPlayer object in the python vlc module. VLC media player is a free and open-source portable cross-platform media player software and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. MediPlyer object is the basic object in vlc module for playing the video. An audio channel or audio track is an audio signal communications channel in a storage device or mixing console, used in operations such as multi-track recording and sound reinforcement. Audio delay means that audio will get played after the delay time than normal time. It can be set with the help of audio_set_delay method. In order to do this we will use audio_get_delay method with the MediaPlayer object Syntax : media_player.audio_get_delay() Argument : It takes no argument Return : It returns integer Below is the implementation Python3 # importing vlc module import vlc # importing time module import time # creating vlc media player object media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer() # media object media = vlc.Media("death_note.mkv") # setting media to the media player media_player.set_media(media) # setting video scale media_player.video_set_scale(0.6) # setting volume media_player.audio_set_volume(80) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep(5) # getting audio delay value = media_player.audio_get_delay() # printing value print("Audio delay : ") print(value) Output : Audio delay : 0 Another example Below is the implementation Python3 # importing vlc module import vlc # importing time module import time # creating vlc media player object media_player = vlc.MediaPlayer() # media object media = vlc.Media("1mp4.mkv") # setting media to the media player media_player.set_media(media) # setting volume media_player.audio_set_volume(70) # setting video scale media_player.video_set_scale(0.6) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep(5) # getting audio delay value = media_player.audio_get_delay() # printing value print("Audio delay : ") print(value) Output : Audio delay : 0 Comment More infoAdvertise with us Next Article Python VLC MediaPlayer â Getting Audio Output Devices R rakshitarora Follow Improve Article Tags : Python Python vlc-library Practice Tags : python Similar Reads Python VLC MediaPlayer – Getting Audio Output Devices In this article we will see how we can get list of output devices of the MediaPlayer object in the python vlc module.
