I have checked out all of the other solutions to the same problem on stackoverflow and also tried them, but nothing seemed to work. I am simply posting links here instead of the code as the code is huge and it would be less interactive.
Link to the repository : https://github.com/executable16/audio-fingerprint-identifying-python
However specifically the error is at line no. 2 here :
if t_delta >= MIN_HASH_TIME_DELTA and t_delta <= MAX_HASH_TIME_DELTA:
h = hashlib.sha1("%s|%s|%s" % (str(freq1), str(freq2), str(t_delta)))
yield (h.hexdigest()[0:FINGERPRINT_REDUCTION], t1)
I tried to use .encode('utf-8') but alas it didn't help. Here is what I tried :
if t_delta >= MIN_HASH_TIME_DELTA and t_delta <= MAX_HASH_TIME_DELTA:
first = str(freq1).encode('utf-8')
second = str(freq2).encode('utf-8')
third = str(t_delta).encode('utf-8')
h = hashlib.sha1("%s|%s|%s" % (first, second, third))
yield (h.hexdigest()[0:FINGERPRINT_REDUCTION], t1)

Would be really great If I could find some working solution along with proper explanations.
