Hi- just installed pygame, not sure where to go for some help.
I am on Fedora 3 running an ATI card but without the GL drivers installed.
When I run any of the examples they work fine but they are very jerky.
The animation is smooth for a few seconds and then the entire thing pauses
for a heartbeat and then it goes on, pause, move, pause, move etc.
Any ideas about what's up?
(This is the same in fullscreen or running as a window)

Well, I have since compiled and run some SDL demos (not Python, but c) and
they also jerk and pause, so I'm guessing it's an SDL/Fedora/my card thing
and not Pygame at all.
F.I.Y I suppose :) This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hi,
I am trying to make pygame play music on windows. This simple program:
import pygame,time
pygame.init()
print "Mixer settings", pygame.mixer.get_init()
print "Mixer channels", pygame.mixer.get_num_channels()
pygame.mixer.music.set_volume(1.0)
pygame.mixer.music.load('file1.mp3)

Hi everyone, I'm glad to have found this list.
I've written a small script for my own use which, amongst other things,
captures mouse click information from a window containing an image. I
used Pygame to manage the image window, as it was the easiest way to
implement the functionality I needed. The surrounding interface windows
(there are two) are constructed with Tkinter.
Despite their unholy union, Pygame and Tkinter seem, generally,...

I'm just starting to learn pygame. I write what I think is just about the
simplest program that should display a window and then quit.

screen = pygame.display.set_mode((640,480))

Hi everyone,
I have recently acquired a Logitech Rumble pad to use as an input

that a button or hat arrow has been pressed. This is on a system
running OS 10.3.9.
I have modified/written a small piece of code that initializes the
joystick, and pygame does recognize it. I was wondering if someone has
a small snippet of code to get me going? I have posted the code...

Hi,
Is there any way to make DOM scripted animation smoother? Flash is far
superior in this area. Any one here know what makes Flash so smooth by
comparison?
I don't like the fact that the standards based world is so far behind
the Flash based stuff in some areas (animation and server push in
particular)

hi -- sorry if this is trivial -- but how do you make a screenshot of a
pygame display? i have a surface which is basically the entire visible
screen -- how do you write this surface as an image file during
specific events in the script execution? image format doesnt matter.
thanks! christine

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
