Re: [pygame] Movies in .exe
I tried the py2exe thing with the bundle files parameter, but it doesn't include the .mpg, for some reason. I think pymike states what I'm after best--better than I did originally. Sorry--I've been feeling under the weather recently...
Re: [pygame] Movies in .exe
I think what he's wanting is bundling his data files in the .exe. ie [game files] Game/Source.py Game/Data/Mpeg.mpg [run setup] python setup.py You get this exe with all the data files included into it: Game.exe The stuff above looks like its only for including source files and such.

Re: [pygame] Movies in .exe
You can use py2exe's "bundle my files" parameter. That adds the zip file to the exe. Browse around in the py2exe docs and examples, it'll tell you how to do it and how to get a file pointer back out. -FM On Fri, Jan 2, 2009 at 4:45 PM, Noah Kantrowitz wrote: > > On Jan 2, 2009, at 5:39 PM, Ian Mallett wrote: > >> Yes, I've gotten it to work that way, but I want the file to be inside the >> .exe itself, not just in the same folder ;) > > http://code.google.com/p/pefile/ can access the resource fields of an > executable.

Re: [pygame] Movies in .exe
Yes, I've gotten it to work that way, but I want the file to be inside the .exe itself, not just in the same folder ;)
Re: [pygame] Movies in .exe
first sorry for my english. you can put the file .mpg in folder dist created by py2exe, and in your code you call the movie. Will be that?

Charles Joseph Christie II kirjoitti: I noticed the documentation states that pygame.move does not work on windows. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? The documentation states: No one has managed to get smpeg working there. in the old (1.4, 1.5, 1.6?) pygame the smpeg using .movie worked out of the box also on windows. it only supports/-ed mpeg1 and was not too reliable for everything, but was still usable for production (i made one thing using it for the local science center) i guess you could still install an old version if how the old pygame.movie works is all you need :) It also recommends that you use a library called "pymedia". The link given is http://www.pymedia.org. yah, hopefully things are going good there .. wrapping the ffmpeg libs is a nice idea (worked well also in how Pete did it directly for pygame in the new movie module, but i guess that was left experimental and is replaced by pymedia usage now). ~Toni
