Hi there, Your problem appears to be more specific to pyaudio than to OpenSesame, it appears. I would try asking on one of its forums if someone can help you, as they probably have more experience than us with these kinds of issues involving pyaudio…

Hi Lison, In this case it also helps to post the stack trace that is output when your program crashes. This can be found in the debug window of OpenSesame en is a history modules that were called and at which lines of code. This way, we have a more …

Hi Anapuma, here is small example script with which you can achieve what you want. Simply copy its contents to the run phase of an inline_script item placed in your experiment. We actively encourage people to make the step to OpenSesame 3, in which…

Wow that looks like an awesome project and feature to me!

Hi Anapama, Nice to see you have found the forum. This should be easy to do, but I don't have an example readily available. If I have a few moments tomorrow I will see if I can quickly create some example to post here for you (or if another forum me…

Hi Dan, I don't really know if you can supress these error messages. OpenSesame is packaged with py2exe which causes this behavior, see http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/StderrLog and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20549843/py2exe-generate-log-fi…

Hi fowweezer, about the number pad, I am not entirely sure this is possible. OpenSesame uses the pygame implementation for android to render all its interfaces, and if pygame doesn't offer the option of only presenting an Android number pad, it wil…

Ok, I have put a simple example online at Github. Use that and see if it can help you start off. I had a more sophisticated example but I cannot seem to find it currently. Please note that you need OpenSesame 2 to run them. I have not had the time t…

Hi there, yes this is certainly possible. In the past I have done this just by using sockets. I have just asked my collaborator on that experiment for permission to send you our files to use as an example and I hope to hear back from him shortly. If…

Hi Florian, Sadly no, there is no support for video playback on Android devices yet.
-
What is the next item which follows this instruction display? Have you tried varying this item to see if the crash then does not occur? Seeing the dump of the Mac's error console would be very helpful.
-
This problem should now be solved in version 0.13
-
I had a look at it in the code. Somehow at places where just an (empty) string is expected, a QPyNullVariant is returned on the mac, which doesn't have a split() method. A call to the split() method consequently crashes the program. I added some fix…
-
Because of some internal changes to the VU network (mainly firewall stuff), the address at which the mac version of OpenSesame was served is no longer accessible. We are working on a different solution, or rather a different location to host the OSX…

Hi pit, I have also noticed the gst player runs badly on slower computers, but I haven't been able to find a solution to this. It has to do with how GST delivers the frames to OpenSesame, which in turn has to render these as textures on the screen.…

Another thing that comes to my mind is that it might be a buffering setting of OpenGL. If you go to your graphic card properties page, see if you can play around with 'tripple buffering' settings and such of OpenGL
-
I had a look at your experiment and it worked fine on my PC, which runs Windows 10 though. The movie played very smoothly with all backends, in both windowed and fullscreen mode, so I could not reproduce the flickering. Did you try running the exper…
-
Hi Steffen, could you tell me what OS you are running on, and which version of OpenSesame? In these cases it always helps if I can reproduce the problems. Can you send the experiment (with movies included in the file pool) to d.schreij (at) vu [dot…
-
I'm going to check this guys. Could indeed be a mac related problem. Can you please add issues like these to the OpenSesame issue-tracker on Github? https://github.com/smathot/opensesame/issues. I use this (like Sebastiaan) as my to-do list of issue…
-
You are right about opensesamerun; it is one of the negative consequences in the way apps are created on OSX: parts of the program 'inside' the app package are difficult to access or run. I could try to package opensesamerun separately (as a standal…
-
Strange, someone else emailed me about this question before, but I couldn't reproduce it. It also puzzled me that this occured even though that statement is within a try/catch block. The Python version used in the latest OSX release (2.9.6) is 2.7.1…
-
Thanks for diving into this. It think it is safe to say the the cleanup function is no longer necessary if gst_loop is no longer present. This basically means the clean_up function has already been invoked elsewhere before. See my comment on Github …
-
No I haven't encountered this yet, but it sounds as if something goes wrong in the cleanup process. I will see if I can solve this next time I work on the plugin again. For now I have created an issue at https://github.com/dschreij/media_player_gst/…
-
Wow, sounds like a complex and ambitious paradigm. Technically this should be possible (you'll need a powerful pc though!) but OpenSesame cannot do this yet. I'm planning on rewriting the gst-player plugin to support multiple video outputs on the sa…
-
Hi pythonpoole, I don't think it's possible to run experiments with the external runner when using the app version of opensesame. The reason is that opensesamerun is embedded in the OpenSesame.app itself which is kind of a zip file on OSX (i.e. seen…
-
Sounds like a display scaling problem again. A lot of funny things like these also occur on OSX with retina displays... I guess this has to be solved with newer QT libraries and more modern drawing libraries that have better support for scaling. May…
-
Have you checked the amount of disk space you have available? If it worked before than it is probably an external factor that causes trouble now.
-
@DaniCook strange. This should not happen! If it worked before but not now, then I have a hunch that it might be that your hard disk is getting a bit full and OpenSesame does not have enough space to extract its experiments into a temp folder it req…
-
Hi Spronk, It sounds like the sampler item might not work as it should which is weird, because the pygame backend (which is responsible for the sampler functionality) did not change from version 0.27.4 to 2.9.4. Could you send me your experiment (w…

Alas, I have this problem even with the newer gst variant of the sound recorder. Both libraries depend on outdated versions of libraries that are hard to get in linux nowadays (the original sound_recorder on pymedia and the gstreamer variant on gstr…
