Hi all, I've got a custom video player application currently being used on Linux (embedded with EGLFS), Desktop Linux and Windows 7. Now trying to deploy it on Android as well, but I'm facing some problems. I'm using the Qt 5.3.0 RC version.
The application uses Qt Quick2. The video playing part is done by instancing QMediaPlayer and a custom video surface inheriting QAbstractVideoSurface, in C++ during startup. This custom surface class then communicates with a specialized QQuickItem used for rendering. The rendering is not done on a simple 2D rectangle, that's why I need this special stuff. So basically I do this: m_surface = new CustomVideoSurface(); m_player = new QMediaPlayer(); m_player->setVideoOutput(m_surface); m_player->setMedia(....); m_player->play(); My problem is that on Android, none of the methods in the video surface class are called. So I never get any video frames in "present" etc. Not even "supportedPixelFormats" seems to be called. The "Qt for Android known issues" page says the Qt Multimedia Widgets module is not supported on Android. I'm not using widgets, but does this also mean I cannot use custom video surfaces etc. in C++ on android? The pure QML-based video examples do work on my Android device, so it should be doable somehow. I see that the internal QDeclarativeVideoOutput class also uses a video surface, so maybe I'm only missing some additional details? Cheers, Ola
