Astan,

<div class="moz-text-flowed" style="font-family: -moz-fixed">Hi,
I have a wxPanel in a wxNoteBook that I want to display some animation in.
To clarify, I have a (py)opengl/pygame window somewhere and saving rendered images to either a png or RV24 using
Re: [pygame] PyOpenGL Screenshots
Now I want to display this result in my wxPanel. What is the way to do this? I've tried converting to animated gif using PIL and wx's GIFAnimationCtrl wont display the image properly (all white), but when viewed with other viewers (internet explorer, quicktime) it is fine. I've had a look at imageMagik (I think that is what its called) to convert, but it is too big of a component for such a small task like this. Same goes for anything that requires a VNC server to be active or present. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've had a look at the demo but it seems that it doesnt come with movie players (in using wxPython 2.6.3.3).
Thanks for any advice.

For movies, some people use wx.MediaCtrl. And there's a wx.AnimateCtrl too. Both are in the demo. I'm not sure if those were included in the 2.6 series or not though. Can you upgrade to 2.8?

I just saw the throbber example, and that seems to do the trick just nicely to display a sequence of images.
