--- Comment #27 from Jens B. Benecke <jens-bugs.kde....@spamfreemail.de> --- Caulier, sorry to reply so late. The link above redirects to Perian, which is a software that extended Quicktime 7 to work with other codecs. But Quicktime 7 has long ago been retired and QuickTime X (used in macOS >= 10.8 I think) is no longer extensible like that. So the link doesn't really help, sorry. If Digikam5 relies on Qt5-Multimedia and Qt5/Mac relies on Quicktime, Digikam might never be able to show or play other codecs like AVI files ... I just tested it anyway: Viewing mp4 and MJPEG-AVI files (from a digital camera) works fine on my OS X 10.11.5 machine (no thumbnails are created though, just as the README said). Great work, thank you! For the thumbnails I get this error on the console: digikam.metaengine: Cannot load metadata from file (Error # 11 : /Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4: The file contains data of an unknown image type digikam.general: Trying to load Embedded preview with libraw digikam.rawengine: Failed to load embedded RAW preview digikam.general: Trying to load half preview with libraw digikam.general: Trying to load Embedded preview with Exiv2 digikam.metaengine: Cannot load metadata using Exiv2 (Error # 11 : /Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4: The file contains data of an unknown image type digikam.dimg: "/Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4" : QIMAGE file identified digikam.dimg.qimage: Can not load " "/Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4" " using DImg::QImageLoader! digikam.general: mimetype = "" ext = "MP4" digikam.general: Cannot create thumbnail for "/Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4" digikam.general: Thumbnail is null for "/Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4" digikam.general: Request to get thumbnail for "/Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4" digikam.general: Video monitoring is not available. digikam.general: Failed to extract video thumbnail for "/Users/Jens/Pictures/20141106_172159.mp4" Also, the above digikam package crashed on quit on my machine. I'll try again and open another bug report for the crash if it is repeatable. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
