CTkVisualizer 1.0.4

A customtkinter widget for playing and visualizing Audio.

CTkVisualizer

---

A Visualizer that actually represents the Audio that's playing.

Inspired from Akascape's TkVisualizer

Install it by running: pip install CTkVisualizer (Verify that you're atleast running with Version 1.0.3)

Disclaimer

• This Widget is absolutely unfriendly to Integrate since it doesn't just Visualize Audio (what you might expect), it also plays it using pygame.mixer. Unfortunately, this makes it do more than what a Widget is supposed to do. Usually you'd want to handle the Audio Playing seperately, and not in some GUI Widget. I wasn't able to implement it any other way. I tried my best to compensate for it by providing Audio Control Methods with the Widget natively, like pause(), resume() and set_volume()

• This Widget has serious Problems with vertical Resizing! Horizontal Resizing works like a Charm, the Bars get thicker, but vertically, the Bars will get "chopped off"

• This Widget has been tested with WAVE files (.wav) and MPEG3 Files (.mp3), both worked fine.

If you want a quick and practical overview of how it works, you can look at AudioMusicVisualizerDemo.py - There I also added some Buttons to change the Color of the Bars or Play/Pause the Song.
