Python Coder for Video Player Improvement
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
Write python and Arduino code for this arduino_port = 'COM5' arduino_baudrate = 11520
During a channel broadcast, the Arduino D7,D8 relay should be turned on every 20 minutes 1 sec before playing ads.
Once theArduino D7,D8 relay on, ads need to be played. The ads folders are stored in the folder of 'C:\Users\KALAVANI\Downloads\Video' and should be played in VLC media player at full screen using the following Python code:
```python
import subprocess
def play_video(video_path):
vlc_path = r"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe"
subprocess.Popen([vlc_path, '--fullscreen', video_path])
```
After the ads finish, the Arduino D7,D8 relay should be turned off and the normal broadcast can continue. Ads should be run on a priority basis. The folder named 'C:\Users\KALAVANI\Downloads\Video\1' is considered high priority and should be played three times an hour. The folder named 'C:\Users\KALAVANI\Downloads\Video\2' is medium priority and should be played twice an hour. The folder named 'C:\Users\KALAVANI\Downloads\Video\3' is low priority and should be played once an hour. Videos should be picked randomly from each folder, but every video should be played according to the priority basis mentioned above.
The maximum duration for an ad is upto 4 minutes. Once the ad starts to play, a message stating "ads start with ad name" needs to be sent via WhatsApp using the following API document:
```
secret = "f6684d2d330d8472cbd096329b7b2c03936ce85b"
