Christine 0.6.0-pre1: first win32 build


Christine on Win32

This night I have been working on the Win32 build of christine. It seems to be working fine. This version is just a test, for those that wanted to use christine on Microsoft Windows.

Altough that I have made some tests on a clean Windows XP installation cannot guarantee that the Win32 will work on your computer.

Anyway, if you are brave enough, download the win32 binary and report any bug you found on it.

If you want to compile it, you will need this:

  • Python 2.6 (I built Christine with it, but python >= 2.5 should work too)
  • Gstreamer Winbuild (http://www.gstreamer-winbuild.ylatuya.es/doku.php)
  • Microsoft Visual C++
  • py2exe (http://py2exe.org/)

The build script is in win32resources/christine_setup.py, just copy it to the source root and run python christine_setup.py -q py2exe to build it.

You can download the win32 binary from here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/christine/christine/0.6.0-pre1/Christine-0.06.00-pre1.exe

I forgot to mention that you have to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 redistributable in order to work.
