Tkinter app to watch videos (with live coding)

Let’s make the simplest app to watch videos with tkinter. It is very basic, but in a next future we could make it nicer and with more features.

Here is the code.

import tkinter as tk
import os, glob


def start_video(event):
	ind = listbox.curselection()
	movie_name = listbox.get(ind)
	os.startfile(movie_name)

root = tk.Tk()

listbox = tk.Listbox(root)
listbox.pack()

mp4 = glob.glob("*mp4")

for movie in mp4:
	listbox.insert(tk.END, movie)

listbox.bind("<Double-Button>", start_video)


root.mainloop()
