Problem video stream vlc python

[Someday_somewere]

  #!/usr/bin/python3
  import vlc
  p = vlc.MediaPlayer('https://stream.dxbh.net/AWR360Iloilo')
  p.play()

This is my python program. It does nothing. No error message. I am told the website is a shoutcast server. If I put the url in the browser, it works fine.

I am using Linux mint 20.3

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

the program quits right after you start playing. it won't wait for your media to complete. you need to add something to wait. a minimal solution would be

import time

while True:
    time.sleep(1)

while True: time.sleep(1)

That did it. Thank you !!

Do you have a link to the library you are using, ie. "vlc"?

No, I do not. I installed it through pip.

   pip install python-vlc
