tkinter won't play

I installed python 2.4.4 from source. When I try to
run the demo tkinter (hello.py) script, I get a
message saying my python may not be configured for Tk.

Under *nix ?

Make sure you have the tcl/tk source installed also.

Does anyone know of a movie player besides pygame that can be embedded in a Tkinter widget. It needs to support Windows and Linux. It needs to play mpegs. The frame in the movie player that actually contains the video is the portion that I want to embed in Tkinter. I would like to make my own player controls in Tkinter. _________________________________________________________________ Use custom emotions -- try MSN Messenger 6.0!...

Hi everybody, I'm using QuickTimeTcl (3.1) to be able to play movie files in my Tkinter application (Python 2.3.2) on Windows 2000. I was planning to write a simple wrapper class, QuickTimeMovie, that would wrap up the QuickTimeTcl Tcl extension as a Python class. All seems to work pretty fine until the Tkinter application is closed, when the Python interpreter crashes with an error of the following kind: The instruction at...

See: http://www.wxpython.org/quotes.php. especially: "wxPython is the best and most mature cross-platform GUI toolkit, given a number of constraints. The only reason wxPython isn't the standard Python GUI toolkit is that Tkinter was there first." - Guido van Rossum Guess, that answers my question, but isn't "Tkinter was there first" a very bad answer? :) It is kinda ugly too, so I wonder why it can't be replaced? Or maybe another GUI...

Hello, I'm a beginner with Python and Tkinter development. My application parse links in an html file. And I use Tkinter to implement a GUI. This GUI has a button to launch the parse treatment, and a status bar to show the state of the treatment. I know that because of the mainloop, my tkinter application freeze while my treatment isn't finished. That's why my status bar doesn't update herself in real time. I wanted to use the after or...

Hi there, I've got a tree control in Tkinter (using the ESRF Tree module) but I can't get it to layout how I want it. I'd like to have it so that it streches north/south (anchored to the top and bottom), is of a fixed width and is anchored to the left hand side. Here's my code (its derived from one of the examples from the ESRF web site):

I've been away from Python for some time, and I'm just starting to look at Tkinter. Just so you know, I'm coming from Visual Basic, where this would, I *think*, not have been a problem, so it must be a case of getting my head around the Tkinter way of doing things. In a nutshell, I've written an app wherein I wish to update the display often. What's happening is that I get *no* display until main() hits win.mainloop(). I've indicated the...

Hi, I'm in the process of writing some code and noticed a strange problem while doing so. I'm working with PythonWin 210 built for Python 2.5. I noticed the problem for the last py file processed by this script, where the concerned tmp file is only actually written to when PythonWin is closed. In other words, after I run this script, one of the generated tmp files has a size of 0kB. I then close PythonWin and it is then written to.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: 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,...
