============================
4.1. WINDOWS XP
===============
The media_player plug-in is included with the binary package of Mac OS for
Windows. If you want to use the media_player while running OpenSesame from
source you need to follow these instructions. This has been tested with
Python 2.6.
- Install pyAudio for your Python version using the installer that is provided
here:
- Download PyFFMpeg. This has been tested with 2.1 Beta. You need the 2.1
Windows binaries package.
Extract the files into the site-packages folder (directly, not into a
subfolder)
[Your Python folder]\Lib\site-packages
- Download the shared library binary of FFMpeg. This has been tested with
version 0.7.1, but new versions are released regularly.
Extract the .dll files (which are in the "bin" subfolder of the archive) into
a "ffmpeg" subfolder of site-packages
[Your Python folder]\Lib\site-packages\ffmpeg
- Copy libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll into the same folder
[Your Python folder]\Lib\site-packages\ffmpeg
- Add the ffmpeg folder to the Path.
My computer -> View system information -> Advanced -> Environment variables
Select "path" under System variables and click "Edit".
Add "[Your Python folder]\Lib\site-packages\ffmpeg;" to the path.
- Test if pyffmpeg has been installed properly by opening a Python prompt and
typing:
>>> import pyffmpeg
This should return without error.
Finally, you will have to download the media_player plug-in and install it by
copying the media_player folder into the plug-in folder of OpenSesame. For more
information, see
