----------------------------------------

You have to add cl.exe into your PATH. It is generally located in (visual studio folder)\VC\bin directory. Add that to your PATH variable using the steps in here.
After this restart the command prompt and you can use cl.exe from command prompt.
Alternatively you can download unofficial windows binaries for mysqlclient from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#mysqlclient. And Install using pip install "path to the downloaded whl file"

As I mentioned in the comment, you need to cl.exe folder.
You can do it through Visual Studio installer.
Install the following C++ compilers:

Cannot Installing mysql-python cannot build or use wheel

I am trying to install mysql-python, I have tried two methods in pip
python -m pip install mysql-python
This does not work saying "Failed Building Wheel for MySQL-Python"
Downloading the wheels MySQL_python-1.2.5-cp27-none-win_amd64 and MySQL_python-1.2.5-cp27-none-win32 and trying to install each of them separately with the command
python -m pip install filename
This does not work in each case saying it is "not supported on this platform'
Does any one know what is wrong and how I can install mysql-python?
Update
Since writing this I am still having trouble getting MySQLdb working but have tried a few more things.
1) I am using Python 3.5 mysql-python is for Python 2.x, I should have been trying to install mysqlclient. However I am now having similar issues as above installing mysqlclient both with wheels and with just pip.

2) I have tried installing MySQL connector C. This hasn't changed anything.
3) I have tried getting it working on Spyder the IDE that comes with Anaconda
So can anyone suggest anything else

I finally did it. There were two things I changed to get it working:
My Pip was pointing to an older version of Python I had on my
computer and for some reason Idle was picking it up but not Spyder.
I had to move one of the mysql connector files from:
C:\Program Files\MySQL to C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL

VLC: Import error no module named appscript

I am running python 2.7 with the VLC module on windows 7 to do this:
import vlc
i = vlc.Instance('--verbose 2'.split())
p = i.media_player_new()
p.set_mrl('rtp://#192.168.0.101:8080/video')
p.play()
However when I try to install VLC module with pip, it returns the following error:
C:\Windows\System32>pip install vlc

I then tried to install appscript separately, but it still returned an error.
After some searching, I found out that appscript module is for Mac only. But I would like to use the VLC module on Windows.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
