I have attempted to replicate the code pattern you suggest When I call `i_recorder.record()`, it returns immediately, without calling either of my slots (audio or video).
Do you have a fully working example project, that is zipped up and ready to “unzip and run” ? -Dave > On Jun 21, 2024, at 4:52 AM, Volker Hilsheimer <volker.hilshei...@qt.io> > wrote: > >> On 19 Jun 2024, at 20:14, David M.
