red5d / edlkit Goto Github PK

The scripts look promissing for me, just what I was looking for.
I just have very little knowledge about python and I failed to use your scripts (tried Ubuntu 15.04 and Arch).
I always get python errors. Looking in the source code it seems - for me - like a mixture for Python 2.7 and 3.x, e.g. print statements with / without paranthesis. In edltweak-gui.py you use "tkinter" (lowercase t) which indicates Python 3.x.
I get the following error:
python3 ./edltweak-gui.py /media//Zug.ts Zug.edl
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./edltweak-gui.py", line 3, in
import os, sys, curses, edl, socket, subprocess, time
File "/home/public/edlkit/edlkit-master/edl.py", line 7
print self.edlfile.read()
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

What Linux environment and which Python version should I use?

Hey,
thank you so much for creating thing!! it is absolutely a life saver, if i can get it up and running!

Im currently struggling to get the socket to connect to the vlc localhost. (im on mac, so i assume thats why its behaving weird, but i dont have a linux)

when I run this command:
python3 edlcreate.py "moviefile.MP4" "edltest.edl"

I get the printout:
Starting VLC...

But it runs forever and nothing is ever popping up. Not even if I go the the localhost url or anything.

If I then cancel with ctrl+c then it points me to the following code snippet:
if testConn > 0:
subprocess.Popen(["vlc","-q","--extraintf","rc","--rc-host","localhost:1200"], shell=True, stdout=DEVNULL, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
print("Starting VLC...")
while testConn > 0:
testConn = vlc.connect_ex(('127.0.0.1', 1200))
time.sleep(0.5)

this is the output form the ctrl+c:
^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "edlcreate.py", line 27, in
time.sleep(0.5)
KeyboardInterrupt

Please help me get this up and running, it could really save me rn..
