Another step forward. I created a new ubuntu 22 install, installed pharo 11 and installed spec-gtk. The first issue was the libraries are named: libgobject-2.0.so.0 and libpango-1.0.so.0 with the â.0â suffix. I created links to those with the names spec-gtk is expecting. Then, the little test window opened but looked like this:  Is there something else Iâm missing? Thanks for your advice. Cheers, Phil

Hi,
Spec-Gtk should work without problems on P11, except on macs, where there is a known problem. what is the process you are taking to install it? where are you trying it?
I don't know the status of the VLC bindings.

Soâ¦
I found a nice binding to VLC [1] and was thinking of using Spec2 GTK+ to create a video widget/component. Does anyone with more in depth knowledge of Spec2 and GTK foresee any obvious blocks?
First block :) I canât find a way to play with the Spec2 GTK+ binding [2] without the image crashing on startup. I see someone has already logged the issue in GitHub for 10 and 11, and I tried 12 just for fun, and it also ate all the memory then crashed.
Is there a Pharo version that will work with the Spec2 GTK+ binding installed? Maybe Iâm looking at this too early :)

Can anyone point to to some library, documentation or examples of how to play video in Pharo?
Thanks in advance.
