[pygame] State of the movie module in pygame 1.9.0
Hi, What is the state of the movie module in pygame 1.9? Is it still the old one using smpeg or had it been updated to use ffmpeg? Thanks, -- Bram Cymet Software Developer Canadian Bank Note Co. Ltd. Cell: 613-608-9752
Re: [pygame] State of the movie module in pygame 1.9.0
hi, it's the old one. The new one needs porting to mac/windows... but should work on linux at least. cheers, On Mon, May 10, 2010 at 12:27 PM, Bram Cymet bcy...@cbnco.com wrote: Hi, What is the state of the movie module in pygame 1.9?

Thanks, I am using linux. Do you know where I can find the patch to use ffmpeg in pygame? On 05/10/2010 07:44 AM, René Dudfield wrote: hi, it's the old one.

Re: [pygame] State of the movie module in pygame 1.9.0
You just need to change a few lines in the build file Setup.in: #_movie src/_gsound.c src/_gmovie.c src/_gcommand.c src/gmovie.c $(SDL) $(AVFORMAT) $(SWSCALE) $(MIXER) $(DEBUG) Uncomment that line. Then type ./configure and then compile and build. :)The code is all there and should work if you have the ffmpeg libraries installed. Let me know if it doesn't.

I got it to compile fine but now I am getting a seg fault when running __movie_test.py in the examples directory: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x7fffea37c63e in _movie_init (self=0xbe3cb0, args=value optimized out, kwds=value optimized out) at src/gmovie.c:89 89if(surf PySurface_Check(surf)) Any idea what could be messing up?

Re: [pygame] State of the movie module in pygame 1.9.0
I'll take a look at this when I get home tonight. For now I'm at work. What this indicates to me is that for some reason surf is seen as an object. 2010/5/10 Bram Cymet bcy...@cbnco.com Yes I did. The seg fault seems to happen whenever movie.Movie is called. It happens both on the line m=movie.Movie(gsdsjgsdj) and then on the line m = movie.Movie(filename) On 05/10/2010 11:21 AM, Tyler Laing wrote: Oh wait.

Re: [pygame] State of the movie module in pygame 1.9.0
Hi Tyler and Bram, One thing I noticed that caused seg faults was a movie file that was too short, maybe plays only a minute or two in length. For me it a longer movie passed more tests, though not all of them worked well. When __movie_test.py got to the point where it was printing numbers to the terminal -- maybe the second to last while(1) loop -- the system started floundering -- my computer doesn't have much memory -- so it took 10 minutes before the computer recognize a shutdown signal and power down. Either _movie/ffmpeg are memory hogs or there is a memory leak somewhere. Lenard Tyler Laing wrote: I'll take a look at this when I get home tonight. For now I'm at work.

Re: [pygame] GSoC 2010: A New Draw Module
Hi Julian, A great idea. If the new module implements all the functionality of the current modules, then for backwards compatibility the draw module, or something like it, can be implemented in Python on top the new module. So the new module should have a different name. Though I ported the gfxdraw module from pygame2 into pygame, I have shied away from doing any enhancements since my only graphics course was taught by an electrical engineer, with an emphasis on hardware and an embedded graphics language for Fortran the engineer had written (this was some time ago). So I'm glad to see someone else take on the job. Be aware though, someone will request anti-aliased circles with line thickness greater than one. Oh, and Cairo is considered too slow, so wrapping it won't do. Lenard jug wrote: Hello! I'm going to write a new draw module for pygame and pygame2 as part of GSoC this year. The aim is to have one draw module for pygame that implements not only the very basic drawing of a few plain color shapes but also drawing of more advanced shapes and whith more advanced attributes (ie. curves, rounded corners, aa, etc.) as well as alternative filling methods (ie. procedural or image based textures, filling from another surface/image (cloning), etc.). Unlike now the code will be object oriented thus you'll need to create a (pen) object before using it to draw stuff. That is to to keep code clean and structured and avoid functions with (terribly) long parameter lists. However, I plan to add some shortcuts for basic functionality (and maybe compatibility). I'm still thinking about concepts and have some more vague ideas in mind so if you have any ideas or suggestions please tell me :) While development I'll blog about any progress at Even though I've got svn access to the pygame repo (thank you, rene) I also have a (currently still empty) hg repo with wiki and issue tracker at http://bitbucket.org/schlangen/pygamedraw Regards, Julian
