Though mine isn't a commercial project, I'd be glad to kick in some $$ if that would help with the development, since I don't have time to help in any other way. So if anyone wants to develop this (add video support to the Pygame for Android subset), let me know. > > > On Thu, Nov 1, 2012 at 12:32 PM, Alec Bennett wrote: > >> On Mon, Oct 29, 2012 at 3:29 PM, Noel Garwick wrote: >> >>> As far as I know, video support is still missing for Pygame subset for >>> Android. >> >> >> Can anyone think of a way to work around this issue?

I think that devs are waiting for the next version of SDL before they implement it. You could always do it manually; blit a series of images to a surface, while playing the soundtrack using pygame's mixer module. I did this (using ffmpeg to extract still frames / audio track, along with a script to try and remove redundant frames to reduce file size) to get some renpy games working on android and it worked pretty well.

Re: [pygame] Pygame for Android question: videos possible?
As far as I know, video support is still missing for Pygame subset for Android.

[pygame] Pygame for Android question: videos possible?
I need to do an Android project that simply plays one of five videos, and I was considering using Pygame for it. I was wondering if this would be possible? Can I play fullscreen video using Pygame on Android? I'd be using the Google Nexus 7, if that's a factor. The video can be in whatever format is required.
