requested [2011.01.18 11:43:13] look into status of Pyglet and Cocoa / Objective C also [2011.01.24 14:55:14] recent thread (today) on pyglet-users on updating... sounds like there are some issues with PyObjC bridge itself... not able to go full screen(!)

/c/technical/instances.txt /c/technical/python/pyglet-general.txt /c/technical/python/pyglet.txt

download the cocoa-port branch for pyglet investigate differences view approaches for opening a window context there.

also [2011.01.25 14:47:53] hg clone https://pyglet.googlecode.com/hg/ pyglet-cocoa cd pyglet-cocoa #to switch to cocoa-port: hg update cocoa-port

python /c/moments/moments/scripts/diff_directories.py /c/downloads/python-testing/pyglet-cocoa/ /c/downloads/python-testing/pyglet-hg/

cd /c/downloads/python/ hg clone https://pyglet.googlecode.com/hg/ pyglet cd pyglet hg update cocoa-port sudo python setup.py develop (or install)

Pyglet is available at: pyglet.org

I download the latest distribution and put it: /c/downloads/python/pyglet-1.1.3/

the documentation included with pyglet is fantastic

the html docs start at: file:///c/downloads/python/pyglet-1.1.3/doc/html/index.html

( CopyAllUrls will not load local (file:///) links )

Docs are also available online: | http://www.pyglet.org/doc/ | pyglet Documentation Index | http://www.pyglet.org/doc/programming_guide/index.html | Programming Guide | http://www.pyglet.org/doc/api/index.html | pyglet API reference

also [2009.12.04 17:31:26] other related files for notes: /c/technical/python/pyglet.txt /c/technical/python/gui.txt

examples are a great place to start. they are located at: cd /c/downloads/python/pyglet-1.1.3/examples

#other sample files:

#this is a good file for getting a window to show up using only pyglet: /c/charles/code/python/pyglet/sample.py #try running it via command line! should see a white window

#this demo is based off of simplui: /c/charles/code/python/pyglet/browser/demo.py

no generalized notes for using pyglet granted the documentation included with pyglet is fantastic should still be some reference to where to look first which parts are best and where those docs live if downloaded locally.

notes are also scattered about in various scripts and libraries. need to distill lessons learned

also [2011.01.25 15:23:09] #this has general introduction, instructions, etc /c/technical/python/pyglet-general.txt originally: [2009.12.04 17:33:08]

remember that colors are (usually) specified as floating point numbers with values between 0 and 1.0

local files do not work with copyAllUrls file:///c/python/pyglet/pyglet.txt file:///c/python/pyglet/doc/html/index.html file:///c/python/pyglet/doc/html/programming_guide/index.html file:///c/python/pyglet/doc/html/api/index.html

for sprites in pyglet, just calling .delete() works

when playing back media on mac, make sure you are using a terminal associated with the currently logged in user!! using a different user will allow the video to show up

pygame developers strongly discourage using QT, wxWindows mixed with pygame... might be able to get away with it in pyglet, but still have the two event loop issues.

seems like multitouch may need it's own category... not sure where it should live yet.

be sure to add in a way to exit the program if you enable fullscreen mode! will lock out everything else if you don't!! hehe... oops reboot

investigating the "Observer Pattern" used in the event framework for pyglet very similar to asynchronous

some issues with images in pyglet if they are too big, they seem to cause problems... maybe bigger than display?

files for pyglet that handle vsync:

/c/virtuals/pyglet/pyglet-1.1.3/pyglet/window/carbon/__init__.py /c/virtuals/pyglet/pyglet-1.1.3/pyglet/gl/agl.py /c/virtuals/pyglet/pyglet-1.1.3/pyglet/window/__init__.py /c/virtuals/pyglet/pyglet-1.1.3/pyglet/app/carbon.py

By default pyglet window buffer swaps are synchronised to the display refresh rate, so you may also want to disable set_vsync.

spent a few hours last night running through the examples included with pyglet. very cool stuff!

/c/downloads/python/pyglet-1.1.3/examples python media_player.py /media/CHARLES/outgoing/MVI_8486.AVI

that is a good first test to make sure AVBin is installed locally (have added to media/system/startup-live.sh)

pyglet.media.riff.RIFFFormatException: Unsupported RIFF form "AVI "

make sure avbin has been installed on the system

#2009.04.06 11:45:36 work@140-182-132-176:/c/virtuals/pyglet/pyglet-1.1.3/examples pythonw image_display.py /c/media/projects/IMG_8116_l.JPG

to:ianb@colorstudy.org? I just ran across this issue when trying to use pyglet in a virtual environment on Mac OS X. The message from pyglet was: pyglet.window.carbon.CarbonException: Window manager is not available. Ensure you run "pythonw", not "python"

which lead me to a more recent thread: | http://groups.google.com/group/python-virtualenv/browse_thread/thread/83fa4a12d22a30c8/744e19c194f1618a

which has a fix at: | http://github.com/gldnspud/virtualenv-pythonw-osx/tree/master

I haven't tried the fix yet, but I thought I might send it on to see if it is something that should be included with virtualenv. It's not so much about supporting older versions of python, just being able to use pythonw from a virtualenv.

avbin is used by default in pyglet some discussion about the use of gstreamer in pyglet | http://code.google.com/p/pyglet/wiki/MediaOnLinux | http://www.mechanicalcat.net/richard/log/Python/Say_hello_to_pyglet

gstreamer interface reported to be complex.

downloaded source, docs and avbin to USB attempting install for linux

/media/CHARLES/downloads/python/avbin-linux-x86-32-7 sudo bash install.sh

/media/CHARLES/downloads/python/pyglet-1.1.3 sudo python setup.py install

bruce uses pyglet to display slides via open gl... this works full screen
