Re: [pygame] [BUG] pygame 1.8.1 beta 2 movie module plays MPEG file's sound, but not video

["Jason M. Marshall" <jmm0@xxxxxxxxx>]

With SDL_VIDEODRIVER set to windib, the movie's video
is displayed, but with SDL_VIDEODRIVER set to directx,
the movie's video is not displayed.

(I am using Windows XP SP2, Python 2.4.4, and pygame
1.8.1rc2-svn1507.)
