PyOgg - Python Bindings for Ogg, Opus, Vorbis and FLAC

PyOgg provides Python bindings for Xiph.org’s Opus, Vorbis and FLAC audio file formats as well as their Ogg container format.

PyOgg:

  • Reads and streams Opus, Vorbis, and FLAC audio formats in their standard file format (that is, from within Ogg containers).
  • Writes Opus files (that it, Opus-formatted packets into Ogg containers)
  • Reads and writes Opus-formatted packets (transported, for example, via UDP)

Further, should you wish to have still lower-level access, PyOgg provides ctypes interfaces that give direct access to the C functions and datatypes found in the libraries.

Under Windows, PyOgg comes bundled with the required dynamic libraries (DLLs) in the Windows Wheel distributions.

Under macOS, the required libraries can be easily installed using Homebrew.

PyOgg is not capable of playing audio, however, you can use Python audio libraries such as simpleaudio, sounddevice, or PyOpenAL to play audio. PyOpenAL even offers 3D playback.
