My worry is mainly windows builds. I have found a number of issues when
I've been building on windows myself. If there's a way to patch your
buildchain I would be happy to help out with that - even if I am not
entirely sure how to build that environment for myself. I did build MLT on
windows and did manage to run flowblade after some generous removals of
linux-specific elements. If _mlt.pyd is there, the rest is really damn
simple. There's obviously tons of subtleties, but the python-binding is
already established on linux - it comes down to stuff that resembles
build-errors (paths, stdlib variations etc). Personally I use mlt directly
because the API is excellent. I've been writing a few wrappers for the
dll's with varying degree of success. :)
The windows build we already have is awesome. If it included the python
binding it would be fantastic. If it is so that SWIG in crosscompilation is
terrible then I don't blame yah. If it ain't, then i would be little effort
for great payback. :)
