Since AudioIO.jl is unmaintained and LibSndFile.jl isn’t working well. There is another “famous” Julia’s audio module? I have an audio in .ogg or .mp3 (any format). I want to read and play it.

I use this small utility function to play audio I have in memory, may be useful to someone, replace totem for your audio player of choice using WAV function WAV.wavplay(x::AbstractArray,fs) path = "/tmp/a.wav" wavwrite(x,path,Fs=fs) @info "Wrote to file $path" Threads.@spawn run(`to…

While LibSndFile has been updated for 1.3, PortAudio is still in-progress. There are a number of issues with binary packaging that I’ve been working through, but haven’t had time to get it fully wrapped up. It should more-or-less work on the julia1 branch (do pkg> add PortAudio#julia1 but it’s been …

it seems to be unmaintained… i.e. there is a long standing issue about playback that has had no attention

Yeah, progress has been sporadic, though things have moved along a bit. Now folks can use master rather than a random branch, and it also uses the new BinaryBuilder-based C binaries. Which issue are you referring to? There are still some segfaults I need to work through and some build-system issues…

I was meaning this one: https://github.com/dancasimiro/WAV.jl/issues/77 is there any work around? also, thanks for the tip about LibSndFile, it works great!

I think I spoke too soon: there was a recompile, and now the example you gave above doesn’t produce a sound player in Juno anymore. I instead get some type information: [Screen Shot 2020-04-16 at 4.23.27 PM] Also, I checked and it doesn’t produce a player in jupyter.

would be great to see something like this folded into WAV [image] Play a sound in Jupyter Notebook General Usage Found this thread actually looking for how to have a player widget on a notebook, ended up with this after a python example : using WAV wavwrite(0.4*rand(2000,…

On Linux with PulseAudio I managed to play a function. Somehow the import is broken. Maybe it helps. using WAV include("~/.julia/packages/WAV/T2P9V/src/wavplay-pulse.jl") t = 0.5 fs = 8000 x = 1:fs*t f(f) = @. (sin(2*pi/fs*f*x)+sin(2*pi/fs*f*1.26*x)+sin(2*pi/fs*f*1.34*x)) s = vcat(f.(rand([ 52…

You’ll have to uninstall WAV.jl if you want load to use LibSndFile instead, the issue is that the FileIO package prefers to use WAV so it will use that instead if it’s installed. WAV is a separate package with a different maintainer from LibSndFile. WAV is a pure-Julia implementation of WAV file pr…

Also, in case it’s not clear - I don’t maintain or use WAV.jl, it’s maintained by @dancasimiro . In addition to WAV file support it can play and record audio. I maintain LibSndFile.jl and PortAudio.jl, which are separate packages for working with audio devices and files, respectively. Besides the p…
