How to create a waveform graph for a radio station?

[camzgr8game]

Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone could give me some advise on how to make a waveform visual that reacts to a channel?

Basically I want to have radio stations that are playing music that you can switch during the game, but I wanted to also have a waveform of what is playing on that channel for the radio UI.

The radio stations I have that sorted and its working well in game, I've defined my new audio channel and set up a few stations with playlists

Code: Select all

init python:
    renpy.music.register_channel("Radio", "radio", loop=None, stop_on_mute=True)

define example1_radio = ["audio/music/radio/ac/1.wav", "audio/music/radio/ac/2.wav", "audio/music/radio/ac/3.wav",]
define example2_radio = ["audio/music/radio/ac2/1.wav", "audio/music/radio/ac2/2.wav", "audio/music/radio/ac2/3.wav",]

And then when the UI toggles a radio station on or off it uses a

Code: Select all

action Stop("Radio"), renpy.random.shuffle(example1_radio), Play("Radio", example1_radio)

So all of that works well, but I just wanted to take the channel 'Radio' and use it to generate a waveform that I can put into the radio station select UI.

Ive seen people take matlib stuff and pyAudio and make waveforms outside of renpy, but I can't figure out how to get that to embed into renpy

Any suggestions on how to make this work? is it even possible or is it just py in the sky wish

Thanks I tried this out and I couldn't get it to work, it didn't help that the error codes were in Russian hahah.
I might just fake it with some image textures unless there is a different way.

Thanks though
