python-ogre: video in a texture?

I'm after a means of playing prerecorded video in a texture. This DirectShow-based snippet looks pretty good, http://www.ogre3d.org/wiki/index.php/DirectShow_video_in_ogre_texture

So how do we incorporate this into python-ogre?

Cheers,
Darran.

Ideally make life really easy for the Python-Ogre team by creating a "package/bundle" that compiles,links and tests..

ie. Extract the text from the wiki into a set of real files, create a MSVC project file that compiles them and links with ogre. Include a test C++ program that shows it all working (include a short video clip with the demo)...

Once this is done send it through and we'll look to wrap it with Python-Ogre and include it as part of the release...

Cheers

Andy

One couldn't ask for a more reasonable response.

It's past midnight here in Calgary - I'll endeavour to do it first thing tomorrow. On the off-chance though that another reader has a couple of hours to spare in the interim, here's offering a US $100 bounty if you can fulfill Andy's very explicit instructions ;-)

Cheers,
Darran.

P.S. I'm serious. Only added conditions is that the project/code be Visual Studio .NET 2003 and Eihort compatible.

Looks like this should be simple -- OgreDshow code is compiled (to a lib), Py++ code generator done and creates code, code compiles -- just need to get rid of link errors...

Could be a nice addition to the Python-Ogre package..

Wrapping the video interface was reasonably simple -- just goes to show wat a GREAT job Roman did when he wrote Py++ -- if anyone out there plans to create Python wrappers for C++ code this is the ONLY way to go...

I created a new snapshot which is available [b] here [/b] which includes all the fixes to date as well as the video plugin - see Demo_Video.py

As always, DON'T use the snapshot version unless you are interested in "experimenting" -- I have NOT tested it to any great extent

Cheers
Andy

Andy, are you planning to add this to the python-ogre SVN in the near future? Even though it's experimental, if OgreDshow passes a couple of weeks of daily testing, I'd like to use it in our upcoming project.

Cheers,
Darran.

P.S. PM me with your Paypal details and I'll transfer the bounty ;-)

Andy, any chance you could make the project files and wrapper code for this available? I've inadvertently deleted the above snapshot from my drive and it's no longer on Source Forge ...

There is an ugly hack of the Dshow driver in the SVN (you'll need to compile
it yourself) - and I'll add it to the next binary release -Andy from Google DeveGroup

Hey, just wondering how the python ogreDshow stuff is coming along. I think it'll be a neat add-on too. Why is the current one an ugly hack, did any one test it? BTW, how far are we from the next binary release, I can't wait. LOL.

The vidoe driver is in the current windows unstable snapshot on sourceforge if you want to try it out -- and it seems to be working fine so will be part of the official release.

Next binary will be a couple of weeks away as I'm thinking about including NxOgre/PhysX and perhaps Bullet collision support. Depends on how testing goes over the next week.

Cheers

Andy

I got a python error trying to run Demo_Video.py from the snap shot.
self.dshowMovieTextureSystem.playMovie() seems to be the line causing the problem. If I comment it out, I get the texture effect demo scene with the middle panel being textureless.
below is the ogre LOG.

What is the error you get ?? Something on the command line or a windows crash message?

Sorry I should have provided more detail. When I try to open c:\winxp\clock.avi, I can actually here the sound of the clock ticking for 2 seconds before a windows crash dialog, the ugliest kind "python.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." jumps out. During which time, the clock ticking sound from the video continues in the background.

I've done further testing and it clearly needs work -- on my system it doesn't work at all in full screen mode so perhaps this related to your problem

Have you tried running it in windowed mode, and/or lower resolutoin lower colour?

Cheers
Andy

I ran it in both modes. Does it look like it'll be available for the next official release? We sorta need it for a gallery presentation. Has anyone tried to wrap the VideoPlugin or FFmpeg plugin? (extremely scared to go back to C++ )

Yes, I intend to resolve this for the next binary release

Cheers
