Gtk gui not supported in ubuntu

SureshbabuAkash1999 opened this issue · comments

Thank you for such a great library. Sir the problem is gtk gui is not supported in ubuntu. As to the same pylive.py function is not opening it's gui.

Can you please provide some information on what you are running and how it fails (ie. copies of messages on the screen).

This project has be idle for a long time, it is likely that changes to Python (and others) may have exposed bugs. Do any of the other examples work for you??
Simon.

Started to re-visit this library, and yes it seems to be broken at the moment. GTK is supported for Python2, but something else is broke.

It does work from my branched repo, back from 2017...

I'll see if I can find out why.

The fault that I am seeing is that code is now assuming getEvent is now called with version '1.3', patch below checks what the camera supports before calling getEvent.
