This is an enhanced version of a basic WAV code example on the PyAudio site. You can specify either one WAV filename on the command line, like this:</p> <p>py pyaudio_play_wav.py chimes.wav</p> <p>or specify a text file containing names of WAV files to play, like this:</p> <p>py pyaudio_play_wav.py -f wav_fil_list.txt</p> <p>The only dependency is PyAudio, which you can install with pip.</p>
