# 02-read-from-disk-2.py - Catching the end-of-file signal from the SfPlayer object.

This example demonstrates how to use the end-of-file signal of the SfPlayer object to trigger another playback (possibly with another sound, another speed, etc.).

When a SfPlayer reaches the end of the file, it sends a trigger (more on trigger later) that the user can retrieve with the syntax :

variable_name[“trig”]

    from pyo import *
    import random

    s = Server().boot()

    # Sound bank
    folder = "../snds/"
    sounds = ["alum1.wav", "alum2.wav", "alum3.wav", "alum4.wav"]

    # Creates the left and right players
    sfL = SfPlayer(folder + sounds[0], speed=1, mul=0.5).out()
    sfR = SfPlayer(folder + sounds[0], speed=1, mul=0.5).out(1)

    # Function to choose a new sound and a new speed for the left player
    def newL():
        sfL.path = folder + sounds[random.randint(0, 3)]
        sfL.speed = random.uniform(0.75, 1.5)
        sfL.out()

    # The "end-of-file" signal triggers the function "newL"
    tfL = TrigFunc(sfL["trig"], newL)

    # Function to choose a new sound and a new speed for the right player
    def newR():
        sfR.path = folder + sounds[random.randint(0, 3)]
        sfR.speed = random.uniform(0.75, 1.5)
        sfR.out(1)

    # The "end-of-file" signal triggers the function "newR"
    tfR = TrigFunc(sfR["trig"], newR)
