# PlayOn
A script in Python 3 to play, and control through a web interface, local and remote contents to a DLNA/UPnP renderer

PlayOn is an application written in Python 3 designed to play media contents on a DLNA/UPnP renderer from a computer running under Windows, and to allow control through a web interface from any device connected to the network. The script does not need any other package, but to enable all the features, ffmpeg and youtube-dl (or youtube-dlp) must be installed.
The application has been tested on a Samsung UE40F8000 TV, and with Windows Media Player, DLNAmpcRenderer, DLNAmpvRenderer, but should work on any DLNA compliant renderer, except for some manufacturer/model dependent protocols, such as subtitle instructions. Gapless playback is possible for audio and video contents, excepted those embedded in a web page, with renderers supporting this feature, but is subject to compatibility as this functionality is not standardized; it has been tested on DLNAmpvRenderer and BubbleUPNP renderer.
The usable media sources are:
- local files (on the computer where the application is running)
- remote files from the local network or from internet
- content from a webpage as long as its address can be extracted by youtube-dl; they can be in a single stream or in separate video and audio streams (such as Youtube high resolution contents)
- playlists: folder, video web sites, .wpl (Windows Media Player playlist), m3u and m3u8
- content from a DLNA server
The application runs a server that can operate in two modes (except if 'typeserver' is set as 'n': the URI will directly be sent to the renderer):
- a random mode, where the content is loaded into a buffer to be distributed to the renderer, and time seeking is allowed during playing from the renderer or from the web interface (provided the source can be accessed in random mode); gapless playback can be set in that mode
- a sequential mode, where the content can be muxed/remuxed in live time with ffmpeg to be delivered, and no time seeking is possible, but a start position can be defined: HLS and video+audio contents can this way be sent to the renderer, which must be able to play either fMp4 or MpegTS streams
To install the application:
- of course, install Python 3
- copy PlayOn.py, ffmpeg.bat and youtube-dl.bat in the same folder
- install ffmpeg (https://ffmpeg.org/download.html#build-windows) and youtube-dl (https://youtube-dl.org/)
- open ffmpeg.bat and put the location of ffmpeg executable in the first line (more customization can be made later on)
- open youtube-dl.bat and put the location of youtube-dl (or youtube-dlp, but the batch file must remains named youtube-dl.bat) executable in the first line (more customization can be made later on)
- allow ffmpeg and python to communicate through the firewall (for more precise needs, see below)
To simply launch the application: PlayOn s
The play session can be controlled from any device on the same network by opening in a browser the address of the web interface.
To launch the application with more options (PlayOn -h to display the complete syntax of command line and abbreviated commands):

Exemples (let's suppose the IP address of the computer is 192.168.1.10):
- PlayOn s -p 9000 -t s -m mpegts: will start PlayOn in "start" mode, with the server in "sequential" mode, the mux optional in mpegts, and the web interface can be reached on http://192.168.1.10:9000
- PlayOn c -t r https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXXXX: will play the YT video in "random" mode (and thus in the best resolution available as single stream)
- PlayOn c -m mp4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXXXX: will play the YT video in the best resolution available, and probably in sequential mode, as there will be a video and an audio stream to mux
- PlayOn c C:\video.mkv: will play the local file in "random" mode, with its subtitles if the file contains some, or an external subtitle file with the same name is in the same folder
- PlayOn c -t s C:\video.mkv -s C:\video.mkv: will play the local file in "sequential" mode, with its subtitles if the file contains some
- PlayOn c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXXXX -s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXXXXXX -l en: will play the YT video with its subtitles in English
- PlayOn c C:\videos\holidays -d 0:00:05: will play the content of the folder and its subfolders, displaying pictures during 5s
- PlayOn c C:\videos\holidays.m3u8 -d 0:00:08: will play the content of the playlist (and its subfolders or subplaylists), displaying pictures during 8s
- PlayOn c https://vimeo.com/channels/XXXXX -s https://vimeo.com/channels/XXXXX -l en: will play the content of playlist with subtitles if any
- PlayOn c C:\videos\movies -s c:\videos\st: will play the content of the movies folder and subfolders, loading subtitles from the st folder and identical subfolders
- PlayOn c C:\videos\movies -s c:\videos\st -t g: will play the content of the movies folder and subfolders, loading subtitles from the st folder and identical subfolders, in random mode trying to achieve gapless playback
- PlayOn c C:\radios\radios.m3u8 -t s -q -a 70: will play the radios
- PlayOn r -i -j: will display the renderers accessible from all the interfaces, and the web interface can be reached on any interface (including 127.0.0.1 on the host)
Tips to make the application easier to use:
- in %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo, create a shortcut with 'C:\Windows\py.exe "C:\...\PlayOn.py" c -n "[TV]Samsung LED40" -d 0:00:05' where obviously '...' must be replaced with the path to the script, and '[TV]Samsung LED40' by the name of the renderer
- in Firefox or Chrome, install the add-on called 'Open With' and create a shortcut with py '"C:\...\PlayOn.py" c -n "[TV]Samsung LED40" "%s "'
- in Firefor or Chrome, install a QR code generation add-on, such as 'QR Code (Generator and Reader)', and once the control page opened on the computer, generate and flash the QR code with a smartphone to be able to control the session from your sofa
The application will altern between the "start" and the "control" page when a session begins or ends.
In the "start" page, the subtitile address can be entered as a second line in the field.
In the "control" page, the seekbar will be displayed if time seek is possible (only in random server mode provided that the source of the content supports it).
From the command line window, it is possible to cycle between the muxcontainers and the types of server by pressing the key indicated on the screen ('m' to swith between 'fmp4' and 'mpegts', '!' to switch between facultative and required remuxing, 't' to switch between automatic, sequential and random modes for the server); to exit the application, press 's'.
Some more infos:
- if the server is in sequential mode muxcontainer can be "fmp4" or "mpegts"; depending on the source, one or the other format will give better results, in terms, in particular, of synchronization (mpegts tends to be more accurate for subtitles as it is set in ffmpeg.bat)
- if the server is in sequential mode, if remux is optional (no "!"), it will be used only if a start position is set or if the source is made of two streams or if it is in HLS (m3u8)
- the buffersize less the buffersizeahead should exceed the buffer of the renderer for a smoother experience when the server is in random mode (to be able to move backwards a few seconds without having to reload the content)
- if the server mode is on 'auto', 'random' will be choosed for local contents except if remux is required ('!'), and for network contents, except, in addition of this case, if the server does not support partial requests or also, for video sites, if the content is available in better resolution in video and audio separate streams
- if the server mode is on 'sequential' and the content is available in a higher resolution in two streams, this choice will be made only if remux is required ("!")
- in 'random' mode, for local content, the application will look for an external subtitle file with the same name that the file (and the appropriated extension)
- in 'sequential' mode, to play a content containing subtitles, pass the address both as main and subtitle content, or type it twice in the "start" page URL field
- in the firewall, ffmpeg needs to be set with outgoing TCP connections allowed, and python with outgoing TCP and UDP connections, incoming TCP connections from local network on local ports in the range of SERVER_TCP_PORT (as in command line) and SERVER_TCP_PORT+9, incoming UDP connections from local network on local port 1900, all allowed
- more customization can be done in ffmpeg.bat and youtube-dl.bat, possibly on a per renderer basis as the renderer name is available through "!mediabuilder_profile!": for example, in the provided youtube-dl.bat file, there is a generic configuration, but also specific configurations for the TV and the phone, to select the right streams according the the capacities of the renderer (the syntax to be used is available on youtube-dl page), and in the provided ffmpeg.bat file, there is only a generic configuration, that could be customized by renderer if needed or to add codec conversion in addition to remux (but is must be done in real time)
- the other scripts, DLNAControler and MediaServer, can be used to either explore the features of the renderers, or directly run the content server
What remains to be done:
- improve the web interface appearance
- add wider compatibility with renderers of other model and manufacturers (requires packet sniffing as documentation usually is scarce)
Enjoy !
