I'm new to Python GUI's and am currently trying to build an app with DearPy. I was wondering if it's possible to use an mp4 formatted logo (animated logo) instead of the png logo's it would usually accept. For example:
with window("Appi", width= 520, height=677):
print("GUI is running")
set_window_pos("Appi", 0, 0)
add_drawing("logo", width=520, height=290)
draw_image("logo", "random.png", [0,240])
My question is: would it be possible to change the add_drawing to an add video and then the draw_image to allow me to insert an mp4 instead of a png? I've tried to look through the documentation but haven't found guidance for this yet.
Or is there an alternative package I should be using (i.e. tkinter)?
Thanks!
I used tkinter for this and it worked perfectly fine:
import tkinter as tk
import threading
import os
import time
try:
import imageio
except ModuleNotFoundError:
os.system('pip install imageio')
import imageio
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
# Settings:
video_name = 'your_video_path_here.extension' #This is your video file path
video_fps = 60
video_fps = video_fps * 1.2 # because loading the frames might take some time
try:
video = imageio.get_reader(video_name)
except:
os.system('pip install imageio-ffmpeg')
video = imageio.get_reader(video_name)
def stream(label):
'''Streams a video to a image label
label: the label used to show the image
'''
for frame in video.iter_data():
# render a frame
frame_image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.fromarray(frame))
label.config(image=frame_image)
label.image = frame_image
time.sleep(1/video_fps) # wait
# GUI
root = tk.Tk()
my_label = tk.Label(root)
my_label.pack()
thread = threading.Thread(target=stream, args=(my_label,))
thread.daemon = 1
thread.start()
root.mainloop()
Edit: Thanks <3
