hi guys!

i have my pyglet app almost finished and figured i'd try it out on my raspberry pi since it does hardware video decoding. unfortunately it won't work! I get a problem with 'this x server does not support glx'. Any ideas on how to fix this? it may not be possible, but talk about a huge bummer! 

i get the error talked about in this first post:

is this a hardware issue, platform issue, software? all of the above? can i build a custom x server with glx? just trying to figure out the issue. thanks!

It's a hardware problem. The raspberry pi doesn't support OpenGL - only OpenGL ES. You'd need to modify pyglet to support ES, which may or may not be a huge amount of work. I have never used OpenGL ES (or even looked into the pyglet sources for that matter) myself, so I wouldn't know.

I have a couple of raspberry pis so I'll have a crack at OpenGL ES
sometime over Christmas.

Hi,

Has anybody made some progress on this topic? I am planning to have a look at this too and it would be a waste not to consider your progress ;-)

Kind regards,
Rob

Hi Rob,

My time slipped into the ether of Christmas so I didn't get anything
done I'm afraid. Good luck and keep us updated.

Cheers,
Adam.

Hi,

I just created a clone of the repo to start my work. It does seem to be more work than just changing a few calls here and there ;-). Once I've made some progress I will post an update to the list.

Rob
