Minimalist Audio Player

This is a simple command-line audio player developed in C based in the following dependencies:

1. Pthreads
2. FFmpeg 3.02 libraries
3. SDL 1.2.15
4. libcurl 7.48.0

This is a personal project used as a way to learn more about audio decoding and libcurl.

Features

The player has the following menu options:

1. play: plays the song.
2. pause: pauses the song.
3. stop: stops the song.
4. info: displays information about the file.
5. lyrics: displays the song's lyrics.
6. show_buffer N: displays the buffer occupation every N milliseconds. N is 200, by default.
7. hide_buffer: disables the command given by the command "show_buffer".
8. exit: exits the player.

Lyrics Support

The player displays the lyrics present in the audio file's metadata, if existing. Otherwise, it attempts to download the lyrics available at azlyrics.com. The audio player makes sure to let the user know when lyrics have been obtained from the web.

Compiling

On OS X, the program can be compiled using the Xcode project.

It can also be compiled via gcc by running:

gcc -std=c99 main.c audiochunk.c audioplayer.c lyricsdownloader.c -lavformat -lavcodec -lavutil -lswscale -lswresample -lpthread -lz -lm -lva -llzma -lcurl sdl-config --cflags --libs -Wno-deprecated-declarations -o audioplayer`
