Christoph Gohlke and compiled packages

[Mike Dewhirst]

It seems Christoph Gohlke has been cut adrift and his extremely valuable 
web page ...


https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

... turned into an archive getting staler by the day.

What does the Python Software Foundation and the community think about this?

Cheers

It's easy to find a version of ffmpeg/ffprobe for every platform.


Thank you, that worked straight away, ffprobe is installed on my
systems already and I can probably just grep for the tag I want as all
I'm looking for is the date of its creation which appears (twice) with
the tag "creation_time".

This is just to handle the occasional MP4 that a python program which
basically manages JPEGs can't handle.  It throws an exception so I can
just get that to run a simple bash script to get the creation date.


Yes, ffprobe is great, particularly the JSON output mode, very parsable.

If you want to get into the knitty gritty you could try my `cs.iso14496` 
package, which has a full MP4/MOV parser and a hook for getting the 
metadata.


Not as convenient as ffprobe, but if you care about the innards...

If Python was installed by user A in their own profile folder, it is likely 
that it was installed just for that user. In this case, you may need to log in 
as user A to uninstall Python from their profile. Have you tried logging in as 
user A and uninstalling Python from there?

HOW do I get 3.11.3 on my desktop?


If you mean "How can I create a shortcut to Python 3.11.3 on my desktop 
that opens an interactive Python session", here is one way:


1. Find where your Python 3.11.3 program has been installed.  On the 
command line in a console, type:


py -c "import sys; print(sys.executable)"

You will get a response like this:

C:\Users\tom\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\python.exe

NOTE:  If the "py" command is not on your computer or does not open 
Python 3.11, then open a python 3.11 session and type the same commands:


import sys
print(sys.executable)

2. Open the Windows file browser ("Windows Explorer") and navigate to 
that directory.  On my computer this is


C:\Users\tom\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311

3. Press and hold both the CTRL and SHIFT keys down at the same time, 
and with the mouse drag the icon for "python.exe" to a blank space on 
the desktop.  This will not drag the program itself but will create a 
shortcut and drag that.


4. Test the new shortcut by double-clicking on it and seeing that a new 
console window opens with the Python interpreter running in it.


If you do not like the size, shape, or font of this new console, change 
them by clicking on the icon in the upper left, then selecting 
"Properties", and making changes in the dialog box that opens.  The new 
choices will be used whenever you use this shortcut again.


5. The new shortcut will probably be named "python.ex".  I suggest that 
you rename it to "Python 3.11".  This way you can create other python 
shortcuts without having their names conflict.

If yuo chase back through the various ISOs you tend to wind up at Apple's 
QuickTime container format as the parent. The compression methods for the 
media etc will differ but at least the structure of the file is 
documented.  It's tedious but you can walk through the atoms (chunks, 
blocks, boxes)  and find the metadata.

There is the disclaimer

https://mutagen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/mp4.html

so it may not work for your intended purposes, particularly for modifying 
the data. That gets tricky since it may change the size of the chunk. 

https://pypi.org/project/tinytag/

is another one but it's only for reading the metadata.

Easiest way I found was run ffprobe command via popen. It can output the
information you need in json format which is easily readable with the
json library.

command:
ffprobe -v warning -i "input.mp4" -show_streams -of json
python:
Popen(command, stderr=STDOUT, stdout=PIPE, encoding='utf8')
json:
json.loads(''.join(p.stdout.readlines()))

It's easy to find a version of ffmpeg/ffprobe for every platform.

Oh, OK, thanks. I already have mutagen installed on my systems
because I use QuodLibet.  I hadn't realised it would let me look at
MP4 video files but I guess it should.

It depends on whether you can use that user's password. With the

It depends on where the Python installation is located, but I would just delete 
the entire folder tree at %APPDATA%\Python\Python3xxx.

If Python was installed for all users, its main set of files will probably be in "c:\Program 
Files" and Window's "Add or Remove" page should remove it.

If it was installed just for User A, then the "Add or Remove" page will find it if run 
from User A's account.  If for some reason User A will not or cannot cooperate, the admin could 
change User A's password and then run "Add or Remove".  Of course the admin would not be 
able to change the pw back, but if User A is not cooperating maybe that wouldn't matter.
