Christoph Gohlke and compiled packages
It seems Christoph Gohlke has been cut adrift and his extremely valuable web page ... https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ ... turned into an archive getting staler by the day. What does the Python Software Foundation and the community think about this? Cheers Mike -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Thank you, that worked straight away, ffprobe is installed on my systems already and I can probably just grep for the tag I want as all I'm looking for is the date of its creation which appears (twice) with the tag "creation_time". This is just to handle the occasional MP4 that a python program which basically manages JPEGs can't handle. It throws an exception so I can just get that to run a simple bash script to get the creation date. Yes, ffprobe is great, particularly the JSON output mode, very parsable. If you want to get into the knitty gritty you could try my `cs.iso14496` package, which has a full MP4/MOV parser and a hook for getting the metadata. Not as convenient as ffprobe, but if you care about the innards... Cheers, Cameron Simpson -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If you mean "How can I create a shortcut to Python 3.11.3 on my desktop that opens an interactive Python session", here is one way: 1. Find where your Python 3.11.3 program has been installed. On the command line in a console, type: py -c "import sys; print(sys.executable)" You will get a response like this: C:\Users\tom\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\python.exe NOTE: If the "py" command is not on your computer or does not open Python 3.11, then open a python 3.11 session and type the same commands: import sys print(sys.executable) 2. Open the Windows file browser ("Windows Explorer") and navigate to that directory. On my computer this is C:\Users\tom\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311 3. Press and hold both the CTRL and SHIFT keys down at the same time, and with the mouse drag the icon for "python.exe" to a blank space on the desktop. This will not drag the program itself but will create a shortcut and drag that. 4. Test the new shortcut by double-clicking on it and seeing that a new console window opens with the Python interpreter running in it. If you do not like the size, shape, or font of this new console, change them by clicking on the icon in the upper left, then selecting "Properties", and making changes in the dialog box that opens. The new choices will be used whenever you use this shortcut again. 5. The new shortcut will probably be named "python.ex". I suggest that you rename it to "Python 3.11". This way you can create other python shortcuts without having their names conflict. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If yuo chase back through the various ISOs you tend to wind up at Apple's QuickTime container format as the parent. The compression methods for the media etc will differ but at least the structure of the file is documented. It's tedious but you can walk through the atoms (chunks, blocks, boxes) and find the metadata. There is the disclaimer https://mutagen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/mp4.html so it may not work for your intended purposes, particularly for modifying the data. That gets tricky since it may change the size of the chunk. https://pypi.org/project/tinytag/ is another one but it's only for reading the metadata. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
