Re^2: Glib & Wx interoperation

Hi Anon,

Well I'm a little embarrassed that you pointed me to a post I made myself in 2009, however, I never got that working either. Instead I managed to get Wx::MediaCtrl working as it should. However, I'm still left with three major Wx::MediaCtrl problems on Linux (doesn`t happen on Windows),

Playback crashes at the end of the file;
Segfault on load of a second file;
I can't play a live feed;

On reflection, something I should do more of, maybe I should try fix the bugs in GStreamerMediaBackend.cpp. This would get Wx::MediaCtrl working and help to maintain wxWidgets and wxPerl.

So if anyone knows how to tie wxPerl and Gtk2 together, I'm still *really* interested. However, I shall now devote some time to GStreamerMediaBackend.cpp.

Regards

Steve

Its a two parter Part one, obtain gstreamer-window-id, then setparent for gstreamer-window-id to your-tk-wx-window-id, Perl/Tk front-end to mplayer shows one way, another is wxWindow::GetHandle + `my $player = Win32::GuiTest::FindWindowLike... my $SetParent = Win32::API::->new("user32","SetParent","NN","N") $SetParent->( $player, $frame->GetHandle )` [download] There are equivalent api calls for linux , its probably easier in C-code Part two is event loop interaction. You create your own MainLoop which is `while(1){ $glib->DoOneEvent; $wxapp->Dispatch; }` [download] POE::..LOOP.. might help with this, at least for finding the equivalent of DoOneEvent :) Alternate loop strategy, each event loop is run in separate thread (require Wx; ...) as normal (MainLoop) Alternate approach, start working on wxGStreamer , based on GStreamer .... fixing the problems with wxMediaCtrl is probably less work :)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
