I can't help much on the Windows side of things, but it's odd that you're getting this Numeric error. Have you perhaps installed Numeric for a different version of Python? (e.g. installed Numeric for Python 2.3 but are running Python 2.4?) Another point: If you use the compiled version of the CDG player you don't need Numeric, but you need to have a suitable C compiler installed. Again, I haven't done this on a Windows machine, but I'm told you'll need Visual Studio - presumably there's a free version with just the compiler. And you'll need some development libraries, at least SDL-devel. This is a bit more of a pain than just using the uncompiled CDG player which requires Numeric. > I am planning to write my own frontend using perl and the win32 gui > modules with a MySQL db holding all tracks and calling this script when > a song is selected.
