python-mpv VS docker-kodi

You can use this. https://github.com/jaseg/python-mpv It has the option of keybinding. So you can assign a key to stop the playback.

I've stumbled upon this library: https://github.com/jaseg/python-mpv Likely that is the way, but from quick evaluation I discovered that it fails for me on Mac OS. Other platforms are seemingly fine, so if you target Windows or GNU/Linux, it will probably suit you.

It's certainly changed my mind on tkinter! I always viewed it as the GUI of last resort for python in the past but it's very capable, the mpv bindings I'm using are also amazingly well thought out and 'keep out of the way' thanks to https://github.com/jaseg/python-mpv.

Hi. I developed a PyQt5 application that has an embedded MPV player. I am using the python-mpv (https://github.com/jaseg/python-mpv) module. I snapped the application, but every time I install and run the snap, the MPV player shows a white screen instead of the video. The reason I think I am missing some libs or configurations is that when I run the only binaries (without snapping), the app works fine and MPV plays every video perfectly.

What you might be actually looking for is https://github.com/jaseg/python-mpv

python-mpv: controls libmpv1 shared library

Apparently there's a Kodi container that does just that but it's outdated and possibly out of support. https://hub.docker.com/r/erichough/kodi/ So, is it possible to pass the audio/video of a container to the HDMI/DP port? TIA

I've also recently learned that LibreELEC isn't intended to be virtualized, though I'm sure a minimal OS for KODI can be found later (or even run as a non-dockerized app on my docker container VM... or maybe even docker-kodi). Still, I want to be able to run a few basic services, house an ever-expanding storage pool, and play back videos/audio on my TV from a single device.
