Hi Matthew, I was the guy talking to you on Reddit earlier. This might be a pretty gnarly thing to get into, but it's certainly a learning excercise! The first step would be to familarize yourself with the ctypes library: https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/ctypes.html I also found this video to be useful as an introduction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CPOjOQNr7Y
Avbin was pretty nice in that it offered a simple interface to work with, but working with ffmpeg directly doesn't look to be terribly difficult. I was looking over this guide to writing a simple video player in SDL with the ffmpeg libs, and it looks pretty informative: http://dranger.com/ffmpeg/tutorial01.html On Friday, January 20, 2017 at 8:24:19 PM UTC+9, Matthew Macdonald-Wallace wrote: > > Hi all, > > I'm new to Pyglet and I need the ability to overlay text on top of video. > I've tried doing this with libavbin, however it appears that the avbin > bindings are unmaintained (see previous posts by others to this group). > > I'm happy to explore what's involved in creating bindings for FFMpeg > instead, as this seems to be included in pretty much all modern linux > distros, however I've never written bindings before for anything, so if > anyone is willing to help me do this that would be great. > > Work commitments mean that I probably won't be able to make a real start > on this until mid-February, but if there's benefit in it for the community > please let me know and send me links that might help me with background > reading before I start on this! > > Cheers, > > Matt > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pyglet-users" group.
