I'd love to in theory...but in practice I've never made a graphical installer for _any_ operating system before, yet. I haven't even made it to the point of trying to make a standalone graphical installer for AVbin. I'm having trouble finding people to test AVbin releases on different OS's and let me know if they work at all, so even if I got an installer including AVbin working, I'm not sure if the installed product would work. If I could just quit my day job and spend more time on this stuff... ;-) I did actually spend some time this week attempting to find some free, high quality "raw" video files that I could use to generate test video files. I found some in YUV4MPEG format here http://media.xiph.org/video/derf/ -- but I can't figure out how to get that raw format into something readable by Final Cut Pro X or Quicktime. I should probably stop trying to find the perfect solution and just convert a short home video clip into the different formats. >> By for example just releasing the current HG head as 1.2?

Thirded, especially the Mac/Lion part, since that's my setup too. ~ Nathan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pyglet-users" group.
