# Listen to audio files
pyzam --input audio_file.mp3

# Listen to audio via URL
pyzam --url "https://archive.org/download/09-hold-me-in-your-arms/02%20-%20Never%20Gonna%20Give%20You%20Up.mp3"
```

```bash
# Loop the recognition continously and save the logs as CSV file
pyzam --speaker -d 10 --write --loop

# Listen to mixtapes and save the logs as CSV file
pyzam --input audio_file.mp3 --duration 12 --mixtape
```

## Known Limitations
### Shazam API Call Limit (Error 429)
Shazam allows up to 20 requests per minute. Hence, a proxy is recommended to speed up recognition when using ```--mixtape```.

### 12 Second Duration Limit per request
The maximum sample duration that Shazam allows is 12 seconds. Any audio after 12 seconds will not be recieved by Shazam.
