I have a python variable that leads to an image.
when i display the variable with
all is looking fine - i get D:\dir\image.jpg

when i set it as an image with
and show it with
i get
"Exception: DynamicImage u'[img]': could not find image. (u'D:\\dir\\image.jpg')

There are double \\'s in the Exception Statement. The image exists at that place. Any hints what newbie error i am making? Thanks!

it should look like this
you are including you hard driver directory in the code that other players don't have that drive letter

Avoid using \ in paths, it is escape character in python. It is not obvious from your example, but if you use it will print "D:\dig.jpg", because \b is converted to backspace character. In this case img will be "D:\\dir\x08g.jpg"
Use / instead.
