In this article we will see how we can set volume of 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. MediaPlayer object is the basic object in vlc module for playing the video. VLC offer us to change the volume of the media, it can be set in the form of percentage i.e 0 means mute and 100 means maximum sound.
In order to do this we will use audio_set_volume method with the MediaPlayer object
Syntax : media_player.audio_set_volume(n)
Argument : It takes integer as argument
Return : It returns if the volume was set, -1 if it was out of range
Below is the implementation
Python3
# importing vlc moduleimport vlc# importing time moduleimport time# creating vlc media player objectmedia_player = vlc.MediaPlayer()# media objectmedia = vlc.Media("death_note.mkv")# setting media to the media playermedia_player.set_media(media)# setting video scalemedia_player.video_set_scale(0.6)# setting volumemedia_player.audio_set_volume(50)# start playing videomedia_player.play()# wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds# irrespective for length of videotime.sleep(5) |
Output :
