pyglet-ffmpeg

Provide binary wheels for using ffmpeg with pyglet on certain platforms.

Documentation

Background

pyglet is a popular Python package for writing OpenGL applications. Arcade is an easy-to-learn Python library for creating 2D video games.

pyglet traditionally used AVbin for sound, but AVbin has issues. Recent work has focused on having pyglet instead support fmpeg, a cross-platform, open source library for video and audio. But pyglet doesn't ship binaries, which means Arcade users and developers need to install ffmpeg themselves.

This package aims to solve this. It provides platform-dependent wheels on supported operating systems for using ffmpeg in pyglet, bundling the ffmpeg binaries.

Note: Windows and Mac are initially supported.

Installation

Note

At this early stage, pyglet-ffmpeg relies on an unreleased version pyglet. Also, we only support Windows and macOS. For Linux, install your ffmpeg binaries yourself, using your packaging tools.

$ pip install -e hg+https://bitbucket.org/pyglet/pyglet/branch/default#egg=pyglet
$pip install pyglet-ffmpeg

More information, including docs for developing pyglet-ffmpeg itself and API docs, are available in the docs.
