I've loaded and scaled JPEGs in GdkPixbuf on many occasions. It's just standard API stuff. http://developer.gnome.org/doc/books/WGA/graphics-gdk-pixbuf.html > > > MY GOAL: Play a movie in a panel or hbox or whatever, similar to a > kiosk.

I searched google for "gstreamer video in gtk window" and got this python code snippet, which is pretty easy to follow and apply to whatever language you are using: http://www.david-web.co.uk/blog/?p=166 > > THANKS. > > > > > > Michael L Torrie > <torriem@xxxxxxxx > .edu> To > Sent by: Jian Zhang > <gtk-list-bounces <jian.zhang@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > @gnome.org> cc > <gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx> > Subject > 12/11/2007 11:17 Re: JPEG image scaling > AM > > > > > > > > > > Jian Zhang wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I'm trying to show an input jpeg file on a fixed area (for example an >> area of 320x320 pixels) on my LCD.
