How would i play a .mp3 or .ogg from python?

[jimi_hendrix]

well how would i? google returns a couple libs, but i was wondering which you would advise and some tutorial on how to use them

For .ogg have a look at python-pyvorbis - it's in the repo's. The examples section has a prog called ogg123, which is quite instructive. Hope this bit helps. Don't know about mp3's I'm afraid.

Another option is to look at the python bindings for gstreamer which is also in the repos.

This site has most of the information that you would need.

http://pygstdocs.berlios.de/Take a look at Exaile's (http://www.exaile.org) source code if you want a real world example, that's what they use in their backend.

I also suggest gstreamer+python bindings.

Why not use the ones from the repos (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=python-gst0.10&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all), as already suggested.
