如何在 Tkinter 中运行 mp4？

Question

I have been trying to run an mp4 in Tkinter and have been getting an error message about a couple line errors in --main--.py, and runpy.py. I'm a newbie and this is confusing me because I've been spending hours trying to fix this. I am also having a problem in the file path for my video, so help on that would also be greatly appreciated! Here is the code I am running!

import tkinter as tk, threading
import imageio
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
⠀
video_name = "C:\Users\Jacob Kuhn\Videos\Rotomdex.mp4" #This is my video file path
video = imageio.get_reader(video_name)
⠀
def stream(label):
⠀
    for image in video.iter_data():
        frame_image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.fromarray(image))
        label.config(image=frame_image)
        label.image = frame_image
⠀
if __name__ == "__main__":
⠀
    root = tk.Tk()
    my_label = tk.Label(root)
    my_label.pack()
    thread = threading.Thread(target=stream, args=(my_label,))
    thread.daemon = 1
    thread.start()
    root.mainloop()

and the error sent.

Anybody got a clue?

Answer 1

Use '/' forward slash instead of backward slash while specify the path. So you would write this instead:

C:/Users/Jacob Kuhn/Videos/Rotomdex.mp4
