Description

I wanted to use Hachoir for MPEG-4 like & JPEG parsing. Took next stuff, built Pyton libs.

hachoir-urwid can't be used with curses-python2.5-win32 as it's a very small implementation of _curses platform dependent module. It lacks many things starting from use_default_colors and to some panel tricks. I run hachoir-wx and got result displayed in attach - seems hex dump screen differs from your screenshots :-), though generally parser works. By the way, have you any plans to implement MPEG-4 Part2 - (Advanced) Simple Profile parser ? My general need was simple custom frame extractor that will not use any Windows libs...

curses-python2.5-win32 worked for me with hachoir-urwid. What is the problem? Can you give me an error message?

hachoir-wx doesnt' work very well on Windows XP...

hachoir-parser has a minimal MPEG (version 1 & 2) video parser and a Quicktime parser (is it MPEG-4?). Both parsers are poor and don't work very well. Don't hesitate to report bug and send patches for MPEG-4 :-)
