[jeertmans]

Thanks for creating a new issue @ttiee! Can you open the individual video files in the slides folder with any video application? Like Windows Media Player or VLC?

also, does the error message occur before playing any of the slide?

[ttiee]

The video can be played nomally.

The error message occured at the beginning. As long as run manim-slides, error occures and the screen is frozen

[jeertmans]

Can you try running this example from PySide6's documentation and play one of the video files generated by manim-slides? This is a video player that uses the same base class to play video files, so I want to check if this works.

Link: https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython-6/examples/example_multimedia_player.html.

Also, can you show me what is the version of PySide6 you are using?

You can obtain the information with pip show PySide6.

[ttiee]

pip show PySide6

OK, I will try the example from PySide6's documentation

https://github.com/jeertmans/manim-slides/assets/98325911/2c0b9bb3-3ffe-4a9a-a9de-f94fd22d0996

I cut the video to make it smaller. The audio could be played, but the video can't.

[ttiee]

I create a virtual environment python=3.11.6 PySide6=6.6.0, the example from PySide6's documentation works well, even the output alse contains the same warning

failed to get textures for frame; format: 172 textureConverter null

[ttiee]

Ohhh! I runned the pip install pyside6==6.6.0 to re-installed the pyside=6.6.0. It works well

[jeertmans]

Oh ok so this is definitely a bug from PySide6.

The issue is that version 6.6.0 seems to contain bugs (which I reported to them), but maybe this is not the case: do you have Nice transitions between slides or do you observe flashing black screen in between?

[ttiee]

Yes, there are flashing black screens in between transitions.

It can pause, replay, and all the key works well. When not setting loop=True, it will show a black screen after the slide is played.
When setting loop=True, it will flash a black screen before the next slide is played.

The bug exists in the 6.5.2 version of pyside6, but in the 6.6.0 maybe pyside6 fixed some bug. So the screen isn't frozen. But the bug still exists.

[jeertmans]

Yes, there are flashing black screens in between transitions.

This is actually what I discovered with #293.

The bug exists in the 6.5.2 version of pyside6, but in the 6.6.0 maybe pyside6 fixed some bug. So the screen isn't frozen. But the bug still exists.

Do you mean that you also observe the flashing black screen in 6.5.2? Or you are referring to the other bug (see this issue)?

[jeertmans]

Anyway, you can try to install another version of PySide6, version between >=6.5.0 and <6.5.3 should all work, hopefully.

What I mean is that in the PySide6 version 6.6.0, at least it can still play the video, but in version 6.5.2, it cannot play the video at all—upon running, it freezes.

Anyway, you can try to install another version of PySide6, version between >=6.5.0 and <6.5.3 should all work, hopefully.

On my computer, video playback functions properly only with versions >= 6.5.3; however, there is a brief black screen when switching between videos.

[jeertmans]

Thanks for the details! What version of Windows are you using? I might try on my own Windows computer when I have time :-)

Edit: you mentioned Win11 in the original comment above

[logdog]

I am having a related, but not identical issue.

When I run with Pyside6 version < 6.6.0, I get a GPU error:

In this case, the manim-slides window flashes open and then immediately closes. I have spent the morning updating/uninstalling/reinstalling every version of my graphics card I could get my hands on, with success only happening when I rolled back my graphics card to a 2006 version (which isn't a viable solution as it won't let me use dual monitors).

When I do a pip install Pyside6==6.6.2 (the latest version as of 2/26/24) and run the same manim-slides command, I am able to actually open the manim-slides window and perform the animations, however when the mp4 files are not playing, the screen flashes to black.

I love using manim-slides, but this is a major issue, as I can't use it to produce youtube videos. Is there a known workaround as of this writing?

[jeertmans]

Hello @logdog, I am sorry to hear that you are facing issues using this tool!

Regarding the first part of your message, you can see that you are using PySide6.5.0, but version 6.5.1 or 6.5.2 should probably fix your issue.

If not, then did you Google your graphics card issue? I am not aware of such issue..

Starting 6.5.3, Qt has a bug (flashing black screens) and they have not patched it yet :/ I did not try the new 6.6.2, but I doubt they fixed it because my issue is still open on their big tracker…

[logdog]

Update: I resolved my problem by rolling back manim-slides=5.0.0 and using pyside6==6.5.2

Let me try some other version of manim-slides and see which ones work.

Edit: version 5.1.0 - 5.1.3 all fail on my computer. Version 5.0.0 is the only one that works for me (I did not try any of the version 5.1 pre-releases)

Interesting! I looked at the quite large diff between the two versions but could not find an obvious reason why it would not fail. Did you have a different error message?

For reference: https://github.com/jeertmans/manim-slides/compare/v5.0.0...v5.1.3

Yes, similar error message when running with manim-slides==5.1.3. Here is the output. I googled this error message and it is definitely a problem related to the GPU. Many people on the internet got this message when playing resource-intensive games on their computers. I wonder if manim-slides is trying to use a feature that my GPU cannot support (see below for my GPU/driver info)

My device specs:

Processor   13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700H   2.40 GHz
Installed RAM   32.0 GB (31.7 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

And finally the error message I get when I try to run manim-slides on version 5.1.3

Thanks, I really need to open Windows back to check this issue 🥲
