quote https://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2013-January/093474.html:
use subprocess.check_output(shell_command, shell=True)

import subprocess
cmd = '''
tail /var/log/omxlog | stdbuf -o0 grep player_new | while read i
do
    Values=$(omxd S | awk -F/ '{print $NF}')
    x1="${Values}"
    x7="${x1##*_}"
    x8="${x7%.*}"
    echo ${x8}
done    
'''
subprocess.check_output(cmd, shell=True)

I have try some other examples and it works.
