How can I reproduce a song on loop?

Question

So I need to reproduce my song on loop using VLC. I used this code and when I play it, it only plays the song once and then the program stops. How can I fix it? Here is the code:

def reproduce_song():
    player = vlc.Instance()
    media_list = player.media_list_new()
    media_player = player.media_list_player_new()
    media = player.media_new("Complements//song1.mp3")
    media_list.add_media(media)
    media_player.set_media_list(media_list)
    player.vlm_set_loop("Complements//song1.mp3", True)
    media_player.play()
    time.sleep(120)

Answer 1

I believe (just checking an old project) that if you add -1, 0 to media_player.play() so that it looks like this media_player.play(-1, 0) will make it loop forever. I can't remember exactly what the arguments mean or their requirements but it does make a track loop.

Hope I got this right, and it helps:)

Try this code.

def reproduce_song():
    player = vlc.Instance()
    media_list = player.media_list_new()
    media_player = player.media_list_player_new()
    media = player.media_new("Complements//song1.mp3")
    media_list.add_media(media)
    media_player.set_media_list(media_list)
    player.vlm_set_loop("Complements//song1.mp3", True)
    media_player.play()
    time.sleep(120)

flag = True

while flag:
    reproduce_song()
    quit_input = input()
    if quit_input == "q":  # To quit your program manually.
        flag = False

It will make your song continue playing until you quit it.
