------------
You need Python 3, PyQt4, PIL (or Pillow), numpy and the program ffmpeg, which is used to read the audio and render the video.
+Installation
+------------
+### Manual installation on Ubuntu
+* Get all the python stuff: `sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pyqt4 python3-pil python3-numpy`
+* Get ffmpeg/avconv:
+You can either use `avconv` from the standard repositories (package `libav-tools`) or get `ffmpeg` from the [website](http://ffmpeg.org/) or from a PPA (e.g. [https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ubuntu/ffmpeg](https://launchpad.net/~jon-severinsson/+archive/ubuntu/ffmpeg). The program does automatically detect if you don't have the ffmpeg binary and tries to use avconv instead.
+
+Download audio-visualizer-python from this repository and run it with `python3 main.py`.
+
+### Manual installation on Windows
+* Download and install Python 3.4 from [https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/](https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/)
+* Download and install PyQt4 for Python 3.4 and Qt4 from [http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download](http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download)
+* Download and install numpy from [http://www.scipy.org/scipylib/download.html](http://www.scipy.org/scipylib/download.html). There is an installer available, make sure to get the one for Python 3.4
+* Download and install Pillow from [https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/2.7.0](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Pillow/2.7.0)
+* Download and install ffmpeg from [https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html](https://www.ffmpeg.org/download.html). You can use the static builds.
+* Add ffmpeg to your system PATH environment variable.
+
+Download audio-visualizer-python from this repository and run it from the command line with `C:\Python34\python.exe main.py`.
