Re: [pygame] Movie Module Segfault

[Tyler Laing <trinioler@xxxxxxxxx>]

Theres another neat work around someone else found, which is to use the pygstreamer wrapper. It apparently works fairly good.

Hi,

unfortunately the movie module is not very good :(

This is one of the reasons why there is a new movie module in development.  However, that won't be release until the next pygame version.

A work around could be to put the movie into jpgs + ogg file.

Hello,


I've been using the movie module in one of my projects, and I am
running into an intermittent crash:


XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
     after 16581 requests (16579 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
Fatal Python error: (pygame parachute) Segmentation Fault
Aborted


My app runs anywhere from a few seconds to 10 minutes, then crashes
with this kind of error. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04, Python 2.6.2, pygame
1.8.1. I appreciate any help in figuring out what this is about.


Thanks,
Vitor
