• Cannot save animation in matplotlib : Windows permission denied

  13 mai 2015, par Vladimir

  I’ve been trying for a day long to sort this out, checking similar threads but with no success.
  Stretch’s Cannot save matplotlib animation with ffmpeg helped with previous errors (I had ffmpeg path wrong), but I kept getting Access denied after fixing it.

  My ffmpeg binary is on C:\ffmpeg\bin

  A nice alternative would be to able to export gif files, but I keep getting an ascii error with imagemagick. I think both problems are related, so I wanted to sort out the ffmpeg first.

  I think the problem might have to do with the fact I’m working with Canopy (in Windows 8 64bit), which pretty much hegemonized my path variable and broke some things along the way (e.g. I can’t open IDLE since I installed Canopy, didn’t tried to fix that yet). As I fixed things along the way I found at least 3 distinct path variables, all of which I updated : windows advanced settings path (set manually), windows console path (set via console with setx), and sys.path (set or checked at runtime), adding ";C:\ffmpeg\bin", where ffmpeg effectively is. Regardless I sort out the problem or not, I would like to learn which of these environment variables are relevant for what, I find it very confusing.

  The code is the following :

  # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
  
  import sys
  
  import numpy as np
  
  from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
  
  from matplotlib import animation
  
  plt.rcParams['animation.ffmpeg_path'] = r'C:\ffmpeg\bin'
  
  if r'C:\ffmpeg\bin' not in sys.path: sys.path.append(r'C:\ffmpeg\bin')
  
  
  
  fig = plt.figure()
  
  ax = plt.axes(xlim=(0, 2), ylim=(-2, 2))
  
  line, = ax.plot([], [], lw=2)
  
  
  
  def init():
  
      line.set_data([], [])
  
      return line,
  
  
  
  def animate(i):
  
      x = np.linspace(0, 2, 1000)
  
      y = np.sin(2 * np.pi * (x - 0.01 * i))
  
      line.set_data(x, y)
  
      return line,
  
  
  
  anim = animation.FuncAnimation(fig, animate, init_func=init, frames=200, interval=20, blit=True)
  
  plt.show()
  
  
  
  # This case generates Windows err: Access Denied
  
  FFwriter = animation.FFMpegWriter()
  
  # anim.save(r'C:\basic_animation.mp4', writer = FFwriter, fps=30)

• x264 & ARM on Windows Phone

  16 octobre 2013, par ssk

  I am trying to build x264 (http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html)

  I used this project to build it on Windows using Visual Studio : http://winx264.codeplex.com/documentation

  I found these steps to build it on Windows using MSYS : http://www.ayobamiadewole.com/Blog/How-to-build-x264-or-libx264.dll-in-Windows and http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/building-x264-with-intel-compiler-for-windows

  I found that ARM support has been added to x264 recently. x264 depends on Intel compiler and YASM assembler. I am not sure whether this is supported on Windows Phone 8.

  1) Has anyone built a windows phone 8 project using Intel compiler ? Is it supported ?

  2) I am not familiar with assemblers. Is YASM assembler supported on Windows Phone 8 ?

• Inaccurate sleep using C++11 on Windows

  15 février 2017, par Ashe the human

  I’ve been using C++11 sleep to give the interval between video frames. This method I’ve been using makes playback elongated on Windows.

  #include <iostream>
  
  #include <thread>
  
  #include <sstream>
  
  
  
  
  
  int main(const int argc, const char **args)
  
  {
  
      std::stringstream sb;
  
  
  
      if(argc &lt; 2)
  
          return 1;
  
      int fps = 0;
  
      sb &lt;&lt; args[1];
  
      sb >> fps;
  
  
  
      if(fps &lt;= 0)
  
          return 1;
  
      int i;
  
  
  
  
  
      while(true)
  
      {
  
          std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::time_point start, end;
  
  
  
          start = std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::now();
  
          for(i=0; i fps));
  
          }
  
          end = std::chrono::high_resolution_clock::now();
  
  
  
          auto c = std::chrono::duration_cast(end - start).count();
  
          std::cerr &lt;&lt; c &lt;&lt; std::endl;
  
      }
  
  
  
      return 0;
  
  }
  
  </sstream></thread></iostream>

  Running that program with 60 gives about 1004 1006 on Linux and 1065 1075 on Windows. So, I’m guessing, after playing a 2-hour long video, more than a minute is passed than just 2 hours.

  timeBeginPeriod() has no effect. Is using timer(like this one ?) is the only way to implement media players on Windows ? What about on Linux ? I think it’s the right way considering the fact that ffplay uses av_usleep().

  So sad that there’s no portable way.
