What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using OS X 10.7.2, python 2.7.1, Cython 0.15.1, that's about it. I've tried 
both pyffmpeg2.1 and 2.0, to no avail. Any help would be greatly welcome!

It is probably related to the fact that the modern version of cython, you are 
using...
I have to update the code. There are many recent posts related to this issue 
__new__ should be replaced by __cinit__ everywhere in the code. I hope we'll 
find time to provide a new version to everyone soon. I am working on it, but 
unfortunately at very slow pace.

So, I've substituted __new__ for __cinit__ and change the signatures from cdef 
to def, as this was giving me another error, and now I still get errors, but 
I've looked at the included files in the c compiling and I couldn't find it, so 
that might be the error, I've got ffmpegx installed and ffmpeg in macports, I'm 
installing ffmpeg-devel to see if it helps. By the way, it would be great to 
have a dependency listing somewhere, have I overlooked it?

thanks for the help!

Ok, so I've narrowed it down to a problem with the __registered variable, 
apparently the function py_av_register_all() is confusing what should be the 
global variable __registered with a local variable which hasn't been assigned. 
I've pasted the resulting code below. Is it maybe a problem with how you define 
local and global variables in cython?

thanks again!

Well the fix should be just declare the variable before :
Well sorry to make you work

The fix should simply be, write before the def :

__registered=False

Thanks for your efforts. 
BTW, you are right for the dependency list for each platform.
Most programmers now C-dependencies for compiling involve to have the 
"devel"-package. But it would be nice to have clean instructions and automated 
build on all platforms... A project... we have never been able to make concrete 
so far.

Ok, so the problem is the __registered is defined beforehand in the code, which 
just makes the whole thing spooky! I've moved the definition to before the 
function definition so it actually shows in the error message:
--
...
cdef __registered
__registered = False

def py_av_register_all():
    if __registered:
                  ^
------------------------------------------------------------

pyffmpeg.pyx:703:19: local variable '__registered' referenced before assignment

I don't know why he's looking for a local variable...

I'm fine working on it a bit, as long as I don't take months to do it.

Has anyone managed to fix this? I've ran into exactly the same thing on 
FreeBSD. If no one fixed this I can have a look at it I just don't want to 
reinvent the wheel

Hi, I've managed to get around it, basically I did a find-replace of "cdef 
__new__:" for "def __cinit:" and changed the line above to
def py_av_register_all():
    global __registered
    if __registered:
...

It did compile, but I still couldn't manage to get all the libraries linked, so 
I'm not sure if it's 100% functional.

I'm not sure if I should upload the changes, any dev want to venture a comment?
Alex.

I got it to compile on 10.7 for Python 2.7 (macports) with ffmpeg-devel 
@20111104_0+nonfree (also macports). 

Changes needed to pyffmpeg.pyx:

1) replace "cdef __new__" with "def __cinit__" as mentioned above
2) add global __registered as mentioned above
3) search/replace "CODEC_TYPE" with "AVMEDIA_TYPE" (I guess ffmpeg devs changed 
this)
4) remove all references to "hurry_up" (ffmpeg devs say it's deprecated and 
removed from ffmpeg)
5) search/replace "guess_format" with "av_guess_format" (otherwise import fails 
with "no such symbol: _guess_format")

Also some path tweaking in setup.py was needed so it would recognize macports 
includes.

With these changes the module can be imported into python without errors and 
the interpreter recognizes module members... but it crashes after calling 
FFMpegReader.open() on a file.

Not sure if #5 is legal... but Python complained it couldn't find guess_format 
symbol and indeed there is no such symbol in libavcodec or libavformat but I 
found the av_guess_format which sounds similar. Maybe these two are not 
interchangeable and pyffmpeg needs a thorough refactoring.

Also not sure if #4 has other ramifications. Maybe it needs to be replaced with 
something else.

Obviously pyffmpeg needs to be updated to use the latest ffmpeg source before 
it can be compiled.

This is my first experience with cython and ffmpeg so maybe these changes don't 
make any sense... but at least I got it to compile and import into python.

I'll post a patch if I get it all to work properly.

I got as far as you did. Thanks for the work! It doesn't crash for me though. I 
was obviously missing the ffmpeg-devel library and was linking with the wrong 
path in the setup.py. I'll fiddle around a bit more, let you know if I stumble 
onte something.

Best.
Alex.

Hey,

I tried the above fix and managed to complete the python setup.py install.  But 
when I import i get:

ImportError: dlopen(/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyffmpeg.so, 2): 
Symbol not found: _av_close_input_file
  Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyffmpeg.so
  Expected in: dynamic lookup

Any ideas?
For reference I'm on Os 10.6 and python 2.7.2

Regards,
Graham

Just ran into this issue myself, Mac OS X 10.7.2 (Lion), Xcode 4.2, using 
pyffmpeg-2.1beta,

$ python setup.py build
...
pyffmpeg.pyx:808:4: __new__ method of extension type will change semantics in a 
future version of Pyrex and Cython. Use __cinit__ instead.
...

Have the changes described above been applied to the repository yet? I've had a 
look at the SVN, but can't see any recent changes on 
http://code.google.com/p/pyffmpeg/source/browse/ - but then I found the 
"unofficial" github repository instead, https://github.com/mhaller/pyffmpeg/ - 
but here too both the master and v2.2alpha branches are using __new__ still.

Why aren't these patches merged into the downloadable version yet?

Good news, everyone!

For your convenience, I have applied the patches mentioned above + some new 
needed fixes and put them up at https://github.com/vvrbanc/pyffmpeg

My repo is a fork of https://github.com/mhaller/pyffmpeg, which is the latest 
available unofficial version from one of the project maintainers.
It compiles against current macport of ffmpeg-devel, which is @20111104 as of 
Feb 20. 2012.
If you have issues with my fork, please post your comments at github, not here. 

An alternative approach to compiling pyffmpeg is to get latest mhaller's 
version from git://github.com/mhaller/pyffmpeg.git and compile it against the 
FFmpeg version he used... it's listed in the README file on github.

Basically, just go to https://github.com/mhaller/pyffmpeg and 
https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/tree/35d7d6f7489c75aaa2fcb39820fb25b0fd44524b 
, download repos as zipballs, compile, install.

If you're installing FFmpeg to an alternative location, remember to edit 
setup.py for pyffmpeg at line 34 and include your new path.

Cheers,
Vedran

I've installed ffmpeg with brew

I have the latest version of the fixed pyffmpeg supplied by Vedran Vrbanc 
(thank you)

https://github.com/vvrbanc/pyffmpeg.git

I've posted an gist here with the compile error:  

https://gist.github.com/pjakobsen/6390588

Any hints would be much appreciated?  I suspect this may be happening because 
brew installs the latest version of ffmpeg, which is either not a development 
version or is incompatible with the dependencies required by this particular 
version of pyffmpeg. Am I on the right track?  I'm reluctant to start 
installing ffmpeg with port because I hear running both port and brew can mess 
up OS X
