  • pygame.midi input/output not working

    From Patrick EGLOFF@21:1/5 to All on Wed Dec 21 22:32:28 2022
    HI,
    Some time ago I wrote a small software using pygame.midi
    It worked just fine with Win10/ python 3.9 / SDL 2.0.14 / pygame 2.0.1

    I had to change my computer and now I installed Win10 / Python 3.11.1 / SDL 2.0.18 / pygame 2.1.2

    The following instructions don't work anymore, making the IDE stop
    execution :

    my_input = pygame.midi.Input(MidiDeviceIn)
    midi_out = pygame.midi.Output(MidiDeviceOut)

    Does someone have a suggestion?

    Thanks,

    The pygame web site says this:

    "Pygame still does not run on Python 3.11"

    Also from the same page:

    "Make sure you install python with the "Add python to PATH" option
    selected. This means that python, and pip will work for you from the
    command line."

    See https://www.pygame.org/wiki/GettingStarted#Pygame%20Installation

    So what to do until pygame runs in Python 3.11? I'd install an earlier
    version of Python. You can have several versions on your machine at the
    same time. Remember, you have to install all the required packages with
    each version of Python - they don't use each other's code or libraries.

    This doesn't sound like "we haven't got around to preparing packages
    yet" and more like "there's a serious incompatibility we haven't solved
    yet".

    Does anybody know what the issue is?

    This issue thread on Github says that everyone is waiting on the
    packaging maintainer, but nothing from him for some time.
