[Vnc2swf-users] Some mouse tracking.

[Edouard T. <edo...@lo...>]

Dear Yusuke, dear vnc2swf-users.

Attached is a script I use to make some pyvnc2swf based screencasts, 
that follow mouse cursor.

Once you have recorded a "in.swf" with great screen size, you can use 
this script to generate a smaller movie, following mouse cursor :

# generate the Makefile that calls edit.py
python track_mouse.py in.swf out.swf 640x480 > Makefile
# invoke make (use -j N with N your count of CPUs)
make -j 2 all
# remove temporary files
make clean

This script is not as elegant as it should :
- It does generate Makefile instead of directly calling movie.py and 
output.py stuff directly, in some separate threads.
 - Some better algorithm could be found to decide clipping region 
according to mouse moves. The one currently used only tries to minimize 
count of chunks. I also tried to use python-cluster with no real success.

I will certainly not find time for those enhancements, as it just fit my 
need for the moment. Please feel free...

Best regards, and Happy New Year !

Edouard
