Re: [Pyobjc-dev] QTKit with Python 2.6.4 and Snow Leopard?

[Jep H. <je...@gm...>]

Hi Ronald,

You actually already solved this when you pointed out that the 'in_attrs' string wasn't being properly defined as an NS dictionary. Once you do that, it all works....


def convert_for_iphone(infile, outfile):
    in_attrs = NSDictionary.dictionaryWithDictionary_({
        'QTMovieFileNameAttribute': infile,
        'QTMovieOpenAsyncOKAttribute': False,
        'QTMovieApertureModeAttribute': QTMovieApertureModeClean,
        'QTMovieIsActiveAttribute': True,
        })

    movie, error = QTMovie.movieWithAttributes_error_(in_attrs, None)


Cheers,
Jep
