Embeding flash in WebKit for pygtk on windows
===

A couple months ago I wrote a desktop stream viewer for twitch.tv and ow3ned.tv. It was just to experiment with python and gtk, and it worked out pretty well. You can view as many concurrent streams as your pc can handle, there's functionality to add favourites, and notifications for when they come online.

Before coding it, I was looking for a way to play the streams with python. I couldn't find anything nice, so I ended up embedding webkit inside a gtk window, and streaming the video in there. it works well, but feels rather hacky to me.

So, my question(s):

Is there any other way to stream live video from these sites, using python and gtk?

If not, is there a way to make it run on Windows? Currently it only runs on Linux, I suspect because of a lack of Flash support for GTK on windows. Are there any efforts being made to fix this?
