What steps will reproduce the problem?

Currently,the downloads list not any release file support the python2.6.

It seem that this project not update for a long time.

my question is:why not support Python2.6?

Python 2.6 is SUPPORTED. It is actually the version it is mostly used with.

Also, the project is up-to-date, active and the latest version is available 
from my 
github.

However, if the source are recent, I admit the binary packages are old.

Binary packages are not the project and maintaining a binary package for
a span platform is not the same job as adding features to the project and 
taking care of the the bugs that are reported,

If you want to provide contributions as a maintener for a binary package on 
some 
platform and provide regular build to this page so that it appears up to date 
for people looking for binary package,then you are welcome, else you shall 
download
the source and compile it from the source as everybody else until someone 
decide it 
is useful to provide a binary package for your platform of pyffmpeg.

Compilation of the wrapper for python 2.6 is easy providing that you have a 
development environment and that you have the necessary FFMPEG  files. 
To have such an environment may be difficult if you are experienced
with open-source development under your platform, it may be quite difficult
if you are not an experienced developper, especially under windows.
