A simple media player made in Python using the PyQt5 module. Its a desktop application which can run songs and also display its metadata similar to any other media playback software. Many other functionalities will be added in future.

For running this app, install the following Python modules:-
1. pyqt5
2. pyqt5-tools
3. stagger
4. pillow

It uses Windows Media Foundation in Windows platform, so it can play most of the supported audio formats such as mp3, wav, aac, wma, m4a, ac3, amr, ts, flac, .etc.
Some minor issues regarding some special formats can arise, but its all up to the media plugin that the host Operating System uses. This application is totally based on the host OS, so results can vary depending on the type and version of the host OS.

There might be some unrecognized issues in non-windows platform like Linux/macOS. So, contribution to this project is always welcomed.
