[PyOpenGL-Users] Problem attaching Texture to FBO on intel GMA 45000MHD (error when calling glFramebufferTexture2DEXT)

[Thomas H. <tho...@gm...>]

Hi everyone,

I using PyOpenGL 3.0.1b2 on Windows 7 on a Dell XT 2 tablet PC
(http://www.dell.com/tablet). The tablet has a intel GMA  4500MHD
graphics chip with the newest drivers from intel installed. I'm having
problems creating a Framebuffer object using pyOpenGL.  The following
code runs fine on every machine I have access to except for this one.
I know the graphics chip has FBO support, and have successfully
compiled and run various C programs using FBO's.

The problem occurs when I call glFramebufferTexture2DEXT, to attach my
texture to the FBO.  The program crashes and prints a traceback with
GL error code 1286, which I believe is
INVALID_FRAMEBUFFER_OPERATION_EXT.

If anyone knows what I am doing wrong, has a workaround, or even just
a suggestion of identifying the problem better, I would be very
thankful.

I'm posting a code snippet and the output it produces.  I know teh
code isnt complete and nothing is actually done with the fbo etc.  but
its enough to crash the program, and demonstrates the first problem I
encounter on this machine.

The code:
=======================================================================
import pygame
from pygame.locals import *
from OpenGL.GL import *
from OpenGL.GL.EXT.framebuffer_object import *

def draw ():
   glClearColor(0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0)
   glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT)
   #draw stuff here
   pygame.display.flip()

pygame.init()
pygame.display.set_mode((512,512),OPENGL | DOUBLEBUF)

#setup a texture
tex = glGenTextures(1);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA8, 512, 512, 0, GL_RGBA,
GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, None);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);

#setup teh fbo
fbo = glGenFramebuffersEXT(1)
glBindFramebufferEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT, fbo)
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex)

#this call produces an error!
glFramebufferTexture2DEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,
GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0_EXT,GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex, 0)

while 1:
 event=pygame.event.poll ()
 if event.type is QUIT:
   sys.exit(0)
 draw()


Here is the output:
===================================================================
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 29, in <module>
    glFramebufferTexture2DEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,
GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0_EXT,GL_TEXTURE_2D, tex, 0)
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\pyopengl-3.0.1b2-py2.6-win32.egg\OpenGL\platform\baseplatform.py",
line 335, in __call__
    return self( *args, **named )
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\pyopengl-3.0.1b2-py2.6-win32.egg\OpenGL\error.py",
line 208, in glCheckError
    baseOperation = baseOperation,
OpenGL.error.GLError: GLError(
	err = 1286,
	baseOperation = glFramebufferTexture2DEXT,
	cArguments = (
		GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,
		GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT0_EXT,
		GL_TEXTURE_2D,
		1L,
		0,
	)
)


Thanks alot!!

I figured out a workaround.  If I disable OpenGL.ERROR_CHECK,
everything works just fine.  If I get the error code after calling
glFramebufferTexture2DEXT, it does not return a bad code, but instead
the expected GL_FRAMEBUFFER_COMPLETE_EXT code.  So I'm guessing there
is a bug in the error checking somewhere?

It's funky behavior though, and only happens on this laptop (but I've
tried with all the 3.0 > pyOpenGL version).  Another odd thing is that
bool(glGenFrameBuffersEXT) returns false, although the function
clearly exists.

So still not sure exactly why this is happening, but at least it works
with minor work around (would be nice for debugging if I could get the
auto ERROR_CHECK to work at teh same time though)

Hello Thomas,

I don't really have a solution for you, but you can use the following 
code to check what PyOpenGL actually does with your calls/data:
import logging
import OpenGL
logging.basicConfig( level = logging.DEBUG )
OpenGL.FULL_LOGGING = True

You might be able to figure out why it gives the error using the output.

Regards, Gijs

They problem may be that you need a renderbuffer.

framebuffer = glGenFramebuffersEXT(1)
renderbuffer = glGenRenderbuffersEXT(1)

glBindFramebufferEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,framebuffer)
glBindRenderbufferEXT(GL_RENDERBUFFER_EXT,renderbuffer)
glRenderbufferStorageEXT(GL_RENDERBUFFER_EXT,GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT,
size[0],size[1])

glFramebufferRenderbufferEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,GL_DEPTH_ATTACHMENT_EXT,GL_RENDERBUFFER_EXT,renderbuffer)

glFramebufferTexture2DEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,attachment,GL_TEXTURE_2D,texture,0)

glBindRenderbufferEXT(GL_RENDERBUFFER_EXT,0)
glBindFramebufferEXT(GL_FRAMEBUFFER_EXT,0)
