RE: [pygame] Question about playing mpeg video

Hi Pete,

Still no joy - the program still opens a new window to play the
movie...could this have something to do with the fact that I'm running in
windowed mode?

self.bMovie = pygame.movie.Movie("./Art/test.mpeg")
screen_size = (800, 600)
screen = pygame.display.set_mode (screen_size)

offscreen = pygame.Surface(self.bMovie.get_size())
self.bMovie.set_display(offscreen)
center = offscreen.get_rect()
center.center = screen.get_rect().center

self.bMovie.play()
while self.bMovie.get_busy():
     screen.blit(offscreen, center)
     time.sleep(0.1)
