Hi everybody,

I've got a little request about pymedia... In the frame of an academic project, I'm currently looking for an easy-to-use backend for decoding MPEG4 file, and PyMedia seems a very interesting choice.
But I've got two very annoying limitations:
- My project is win32 dependant.
- For compatibility concerns, i've to use python 2.3.4

Ok... you probably guessed my next question: Where can I find a recent PyMedia binary distribution for win32 and python 2.3?

If no such binary distribution exists, is there any chance i could manage to compile it myself? (this is a quite tough task as far as i know...)

All suggestions/ideas are greatly appreciated
Thanks

M. H.

Hmm,
Have you seen it here ?
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/pymedia/pymedia-1.3.7.2.win32-py2.4.exe?modtime=1148473693&big_mirror=0
I will release 1.3.8. with the latest stuff from ffmpeg but cannot tell when it will happen. 1.3.7.2 is the most stable release for now.

Thanks for your quick response

Hum, yes I noticed this version, but it won't work with python 2.3... does'nt it?

The only version i manage to find for python 2.3 is PyMedia 1.3.5.0-pre2... (more than two years old)... Is it too risky to use it? (the main feature i really need is simply to grab each MP4 frame separatly to analyse them, nothing more)...

You can try it should work fine for your purpose.
