Playing a wav file is going to be a bit tricky on the ESP8266 because it doesn't have a hardware DAC.

You have a few options -- external I2S DAC, etc. I've heard of people doing software sigma-delta on ESP8266 (but I imagine it doesn't sound great). But none of this has easy support from MicroPython.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, there's no easy option, but depending on how much effort you're prepared to put in you might be able to make something work -- need more information about what you were expecting. You're probably better off using a more capable microcontroller.

Over 3 years later... I have the same question... so, using a DAC, is there an I2S (IIS) Library for 8266? I am using a Wemos D1 mini clone

Did you find any? I'd like to get an I2S microphone into either my 8266 or ESP32. They both have I2S capability, but I can't seem to find a way to get this little SPH0645 mic to connect in MicroPython. For that matter, I've also got a MAX98357 I2S amplifier, but can't find resources for it either. Any help is much appreciated

If you are comfortable making your own custom build one option is integrating this PR for the ESP32:
https://github.com/micropython/micropython/pull/4471

Documentation for the PR is here:
https://github.com/miketeachman/micropy ... s-examples

Included in the documentation are pre-built uPy ESP32 binaries that include the I2S functionality.
https://github.com/miketeachman/micropy ... r/firmware

That might be a place to start? Note that this I2S PR was updated a few days ago to use the ESP32 cmake build.

Not Really. The video describes implementation of an I2S WAV player by writing C code using the Arduino editor. The poster is interested to use MicroPython.
