GSVideo deos not export Windows application

in Contributed Library Questions • 2 years ago

When I try to export as a Windows application the example "Loop" of the GSVideo distribution I get an .exe OK, but if I run it, it gives a blank screen with just the stop button.
I use Vista and Processing 1.2.1
Any idea why?

The problem is that you cannot put your videos inside the sketch's data folder, because then gstreamer won't be able to read them from inside the exported jar.

You could do something like this:

movie = new GSMovie(this, "./videos/clip.mov");

and then put the video folder with your movie files in the root folder of your exported application.

I have a similar problem to this. I am using Eclipse and the P5Exporter to create a Windows application. I have a quicktime movie located in an assets directory at the project root. The application compiles successfully and I then manually copy over the assets folder into the root of the compiled application. However when it runs I get a blank screen. If I run the jar from the command line I get the following errors

First "No such Gstreamer factory: playbin2"

and secondly "Could not load movie file assets/station.mov"

I'm not sure if the two are related or not. I have tried copying the station.mov file into other directories but still no such luck. It keeps informing me that it cannot find the file.

Any suggestions?

I never used P5Exporter, but maybe is not copying the gstreamer plugins into the correct location where the application can load them.

The solution suggested by Andres

You could do something like this:

Copy code

movie = new GSMovie(this, "./videos/clip.mov");

and then put the video folder with your movie files in the root folder of your exported application.

What about using the "sketchPath" variable? It's supposedly always pointing to the root folder of the sketch (not sure if that also works for exported applications). In other words:

movie = new GSMovie(this, sketchPath + "/videos/clip.mov");

I've got the same problem on windows 7 and it's solved.
