Linux Show Player
Cue player for stage productions
---
Linux Show Player, LiSP for short, is a free cue player, primarily intended for sound-playback during stage productions.
The ultimate goal is to provide a complete playback software for musical plays, theatre shows, and similar.
For bugs and requests you can open an issue on the GitHub issues tracker; for support, discussions, and anything else
you should use the [discussion](https://github.com/FrancescoCeruti/linux-show-player/discussions) section on GitHub
or the [gitter/matrix](https://gitter.im/linux-show-player/linux-show-player) chat.
Linux Show Player is currently developed and tested for **GNU/Linux** only.
_The core components (Python, GStreamer and Qt) are multi-platform, thus in future - despite the name - LiSP might get ported to other platforms._
