PyroSync 🎆

PyroSync is a simple program that allows you to sync any music with timecodes pursuing the goal to help you sync your shots with the music.

This code has been made to be used with this kind of firing system using districts and lines : https://www.amazon.fr/dp/B07DBJMT9B?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

Files

hand_pyro.py is the main program. config.csv is the config file used by hand pyro for syncing. audio.mp3 (not included here) is the audio you want to play.

Config

Sample of a config file

    timecode,district,lines,firing_type
    00:00:00,1,"[1]",unit
    00:00:02,2,"[1,2,3]",rapid
    00:00:06,3,"[1,2,3]",all_fire

The program is precise down to the second. Unit -> Single line Rapid -> Multiple lines with a delay between each All Fire -> Will shoot all lines in a Disctrict

Please ensure there's no line after the end of the audio or it will crash.

Improvements & Known bugs

Improvements

This program has initially been made to be used with an unofficial remote control such as Flipper Zero for the receivers after reverse engineering the signals and bytes. Unfortunately and mostly due to time I did not had the possibility to implement this.

This is why there's the different lines and type of firing inside the code.

If you want to contribute, please fork the repo and open a pull request, I'll be happy to merge your request if relevant ;)

Known bugs

If you start the program, then start the show, central timer will not start. Please stop, reset then start again and it will start.
