Hi list I have tried to create a QML Item for video playback using phonon. For that I am creating a video widget and display it in a QDeclarativeItem via a QGraphicsProxyWidget.
This is the tutorial I have used for inspiration http://www.meegoexperts.com/2011/09/phonon-video-player-qml/ Everything works OK if the video is local or if the network path to the video source is OK (eg: reachable and not too slow). If the network path is NOT ok (eg: video source is not available or network is slow) then the GUI freezes until the video is available... or a timeout is reached. This is unacceptable for my project. I have been using for testing a local file AND a network webcam via RTSP protocol. Phonon backend vlc. In the phonon documenation it is said that: "Note also that most of the functions in this class are asynchronous. For instance, a media source may not play immediately after you call the play() function." Do you have some hints on how to make the GUI not to freeze if the media cannot be reached?... or while the media is loading?... (As a backup I could be using QX11Embed and vlc... although I could not find the wid command line parameter for vlc...) Thank you in advance! :) -- Robert Voinea Software Engineer +4 0740 467 262 Don't take life too seriously. You'll never get out of it alive. (Elbert Hubbard)
