Bug ID: 493849
Summary: KPA goes into infinite loop when starting annotation
from thumbnail view
Classification: Applications
Product: kphotoalbum
Version: GIT master
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: Thumbnail Viewer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
With a fresh build from git master (2024/09/29) the demo DB hangs when starting
the annotation dialog (in my test with 2 images) with the ever repeated message
in the terminal:
"kphotoalbum.Viewer: Video backend QtAV not available. Selecting first
available backend..."
My build is (was :-) without the *optional* backend QtAV. From the config:
"
-- The following OPTIONAL packages have not been found:
* QtAV
* LIBVLC
"
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. build KPA from git without these 2 packages
2. start KPA demo with the freshly built executable
3. start thumbnail viewer
4. select any images
5. hit crtl-2 and ...
OBSERVED RESULT
6. wait forever (see the error message scrolling in the terminal)
EXPECTED RESULT
I'd like to see the annotation dialog next :-)
