How to Build Music Player with Python TKinter

In this lesson we want to learn How to Build Music Player with Python TKinter, Building a simple media player in Python using Tkinter can be achieved by using the ttk.Combobox and ttk.Button classes to create a drop-down list for selecting the media files and buttons for controlling the playback. You can use the built-in pygame library to play the media files. Here is an example of how you might go about building a simple media player in Tkinter:

import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
import pygame

class MediaPlayer:
    def __init__(self, root):
        self.root = root
        self.root.title("Media Player")
        self.root.geometry("250x150")

        self.playlist = ["audio1.mp3", "audio2.mp3", "audio3.mp3"]
        self.current_track = tk.StringVar()
        self.current_track.set(self.playlist[0])
        self.combobox = ttk.Combobox(self.root, values=self.playlist, textvariable=self.current_track)
        self.combobox.pack()
        self.play_button = ttk.Button(self.root, text="Play", command=self.play_track)
        self.play_button.pack()
        self.pause_button = ttk.Button(self.root, text="Pause", command=self.pause_track)
        self.pause_button.pack()
        self.stop_button = ttk.Button(self.root, text="Stop", command=self.stop_track)
        self.stop_button.pack()
        pygame.init()
        pygame.mixer.init()

    def play_track(self):
        pygame.mixer.music.load(self.current_track.get())
        pygame.mixer.music.play()

    def pause_track(self):
        pygame.mixer.music.pause()

    def stop_track(self):
        pygame.mixer.music.stop()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    root = tk.Tk()
    player = MediaPlayer(root)
    root.mainloop()

import tkinter as tk

from tkinter import ttk

import pygame

class MediaPlayer:

def __init__(self, root):

self.root = root

self.root.title("Media Player")

self.root.geometry("250x150")

self.playlist = ["audio1.mp3", "audio2.mp3", "audio3.mp3"]

self.current_track = tk.StringVar()

self.current_track.set(self.playlist[0])

self.combobox = ttk.Combobox(self.root, values=self.playlist, textvariable=self.current_track)

self.combobox.pack()

self.play_button = ttk.Button(self.root, text="Play", command=self.play_track)

self.play_button.pack()

self.pause_button = ttk.Button(self.root, text="Pause", command=self.pause_track)

self.pause_button.pack()

self.stop_button = ttk.Button(self.root, text="Stop", command=self.stop_track)

self.stop_button.pack()

pygame.init()

pygame.mixer.init()

def play_track(self):

pygame.mixer.music.load(self.current_track.get())

pygame.mixer.music.play()

def pause_track(self):

pygame.mixer.music.pause()

def stop_track(self):

pygame.mixer.music.stop()

if __name__ == "__main__":

root = tk.Tk()

player = MediaPlayer(root)

root.mainloop()

In this example, we create a MediaPlayer class that takes the root Tkinter window as a parameter. Then we create a drop-down list ttk.Combobox which is populated with a list of audio files and a set of buttons ttk.Button for controlling the playback. The play_track, pause_track, and stop_track methods are used to control the playback of the media files using the pygame library. You can also add more functionalities like next,previos, volume control, etc. make sure that you have installed pygame.

This is just a basic example, you can customize it as per your requirement.
