Re: The Bare Essential Webcam Capture
Hey Godzilla, Thanks for the kind words. I don't truly know the answers to your other questions about v4l so I posted the question to the mailing list. As for SDL, I'm not a big fan, but I don't want to discourage you. It may be exactly what you are looking for. For me, it is out of consideration si...

Re: The Bare Essential Webcam Capture
WebCamGrab-0.0.1.tar.gz I totally relate to your desire to have more control over the Webcam. I actually wrote a simple webcam capture to snapshot in pure C++ using the v4l library and the jpeg library, and of course, straight X window programming. In a word: Yuck. However, unfortunately, the gb.v4...

Re: The Bare Essential Webcam Capture
Thanks. That's handy, it looks like a higher level wrapper around a MediaPlayer. However, I don't see a way to capture the current image to an Image object. This is a requirement for me. Notice, that the first three code lines and the Form_Open are really the only required elements, so declaring the...

The Bare Essential Webcam Capture
I finally figured out the bare minimum (I think) of what you want in a webcam capture program. It turns out to be so easy that it is short enough to be a code snippet: ' Gambas class file Private myPlayer As New MediaPlayer As "Player" '=====================================================...

Re: How do I get the return value from EXEC ?
Howdy, and welcome to the forum. Shorter Answer: Try: EXEC ["python", "/home/bakar/director.py", "1981", "7". "30"] TO sOutPut Longer Answer: You probably want to use Shell instead of Exec. They are similar, but different. http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/...

Re: Local Noon Clock
No, it still doesn't look right. For your location, I entered Longitude="-2.65" Latitude="49.5" which I got by looking up "Guernsey, Channel Islands" on a popular internet web map site. Of course, my system Timezone is off, so the numbers in the second column are off by...

Re: Local Noon Clock
Thanks for the fix up, I'm glad you liked it. I resisted the temptation of color coding the 5 minute dots according to a color wheel. Yes, I have a degree in Math, but I didn't do any of the equations in the SolarTime class. I left a reference in the code to the source of those equations. Kind of co...

Local Noon Clock
LocalNoonClock-0.0.1.tar.gz [Edit: The subsequent version posted below is better.] So, I was messing around with dates in Gambas with a SQLite database. The issue of UTC vs Local time is important to keep straight, thus I wrote this little program to help me with some time visualization. It is sort...
