I'm running PyQt6. I have a QMainWindow with one QPushButton and QLineEdit in a widget. I want to play a sound every time I click the button, and simuatenously it adds a text to my line edit. I used playsound
to achieve this effect, but there's a delay when the sound is played and the text is added.
I want to remove that delay. I have also found that there were QSound options way back in PyQt4 but it doesn't exist in PyQt6 anymore. Maybe there are alternatives to playsound
?
Anyway, here is my code:
import sys
from functools import cached_property, partial
from threading import Thread
from playsound import playsound
from PyQt6.QtCore import *
from PyQt6.QtGui import *
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import *
class Main(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.setWindowTitle('Play Sound')
central_widget = QWidget()
self.setCentralWidget(central_widget)
self.btn = QPushButton()
self.lay = QHBoxLayout(central_widget)
self.btn.setText('Play the Sound')
self.lay.addWidget(self.btn)
self.qline = QLineEdit()
self.qline.setFixedHeight(35)
self.lay.addWidget(self.qline)
self.btn.clicked.connect(partial(self.buildExpression, 'X'))
self.btn.clicked.connect(self.playsound)
def line(self):
return self.qline.text()
def lineedit(self, text):
self.qline.setText(text)
self.qline.setFocus()
def buildExpression(self, sub_exp):
expression = self.line() + sub_exp
self.lineedit(expression)
def playsound(self):
playsound('sound.mp3')
def background():
while True:
playsound('background.mp3')
def main():
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
run = Main()
Thread(target=background, daemon=True).start()
run.show()
app.exec()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
