setup.py problem

[omria123]

the setup.py doesnt work, in the python file there is a type error, the script is trying to add list and string, how can i fix it? and what path do i need to change to in ffmpegpath?
and by the way the 2.1 version doesnt work either i transfered the files to the folder Lib\site-packages
and i still cant import pyffmpeg

[serapissobek]

Change this line
incdir = incdir + list(nd.get_numpy_include_dirs())

To:

templist = list(nd.get_numpy_include_dirs())
templist .append(incdir)
incdir = templist

[omria123]

i still get an error (a different one):
usage: setup.py [global_opts] cmd1 [cmd1_opts] [cmd2 [cmd2_opts] ...]
or: setup.py --help [cmd1 cmd2 ...]
or: setup.py --help-commands
or: setup.py cmd --help

error: no commands supplied

[serapissobek]

you have to do a build with the below line:
python setup.py build

[omria123]

i still get an error when i try to use build (a very long one)

there is more but i cant see it in cmd

[serapissobek]

Yeah, I got stuck in this one as well and I issued it before, check the list of issues. but no one has replied me yet

[BlitzKraft]

I just forked this today, and I am working resolving a few issues. I think many of the above log messages are due to changes in ffmpeg api. You can follow the progress here https://github.com/blitzkraft/pyffmpeg/tree/update
