embedding PHP to a GUI

You know you could write all of that without the need for the browser
at all, takes a little bit more coding on the client and server end
but you should not need to embed a browser in your app to do anything
you described

OK, here goes the description: I'm writing a media player that has
functionalities included such as upload, share, and manage videos. When you
open that player you can check the latest videos and play them. The skin of
the player has been written in python but the management panel and the rest
come from the servers - I have embedded the IE browser within the player. It
works pretty well on Windows but I can't obviously make it work on Mac.

Well without knowing exactly how your backend (The server) works here
is a basic outline of what I would do

Create a page that servers the list of videos in xml format
Use wx.MediaCtrl to retrieve and play the videos
Either use wxFTP or pythons urllib to upload the movies
Not sure what you mean by Manage other then Changing filenames and or
Deleting, and I would use the urllib for this as well to send the data
via a Post Event (You need a page that retrieves the info via $_POST
vars on the server)

I'm intrigued... won't this method increase dramatically the size of my
player? How will it work, roughly?

Thanks.
