Example implementation of network connected MP3 player based on the ESP8266 WiFi module and the CATALEX Serial controlled MP3 Player. The MP3 player is controlled using a priopriety serial protocol. The file YX5300.py implements the protocol definition defined in the Serial MP3 Player v1.0 Manual.
The MP3 module has a 4 pin connector. VC +, VC -, RX, TX. Power can be drawn from the ESP8266 ground and +5v pin. for serial communication cross the RX to TX between the two modules.
