I know I've asked this before but I am still unable to get anything
other than sound for videos in digikam. Initially openSUSE Tumbleweed had the wrong compile options which stopped the thumbnail from displaying, this has been resolved and now the thumbnails are displayed. I have asked on the TW forums and had it confirmed by one user there that his videos play OK so obviously I am missing something but we have compared what we have installed and so far have not found I am missing anything. The videos can be played in any player I have installed including Totem Kaffeine and VLC so the relevant codecs are installed. I have all the relevant gstreamer and QT%Multimedia packages installed. I have started digikam from a console window but none of the message which appear seem to show any errors. So what I would appreciate is some help in debugging this to get to the root of the what I need to install or configure.

GStreamer support for video files is optional while Qt5Multimedia compilation. Ask to packagers to take a care about. I have to make the same with Mageia 6 distro few month ago, when Gstreamer 0.10 to 1.0 have been updated. Note : Qt5 and GStreamer 0.10 is the hell. GStreamer 1.0 AND Qt >= 5.6 must be used.

I have both gstreamer 1.8.2 and gstreamer-0_10 installed and the -0_10
release is all that is available in openSUSE presently, the QT libraries are 5.6. Looks like I need to wait for a gstreamer update.

I have been doing a little more digging and apparently gstreamer-0_10
seems quite old and I was able to un-install it with no problems so now I have only gstreamer 1.8.2 installed with all the appropriate plugins etc and yet I still have the problem in digikam. So I guess I still need some help in debugging this if anyone has any ideas please?

OK to answer both Gilles and jdd
To open the video I do what I always did in V4 which is double click on it and it expect it to open and play in the preview part of the main display which is what it has always done in V4 - in V5 it plays the video sound but the preview window shows all the thumbnails not the video. Secondly the openSUSE version did not have the correct compile options for QT5Multimedia so once that was corrected the proper thumbnails appeared for the video clips and the video should play. One of the openSUSE forum members confirmed that for him he can get the video to play, although it is not clear exactly how he did this as he does not normally use digikam and just tested it for me. If I right click on the video thumbnail and use open with and choose a video player then the video plays but externally to digikam in that players own window. Now unless V5 has changed how it works I expected the video to play in the preview part of the digikam window.

Following Robert Zellers advice on Leap I have installed Digikam V5
successfully and now have both Digikam V5 from a private repo and a copy installed from Leap repos. No matter which one I start both run fine and both play my videos exactly as I was expecting. This obviously means I have to start digging into my Tumbleweed system to try to find the differences which must be causing the issue I have on that system.

Well there was an openSUSE Tumbleweed update for digikam today which is
just a re-compile basically so I installed it and you've guessed it my videos now play OK as they should. I have no idea exactly what was dne in the recompile but now it works!

I still have the problem with no ability to play videos in Digikam. I'm now
using the digikam from Opensuse in the repository KDE-Extra. It says that it is compiled with QT Multimediasupport. If i rightclick the tumbnail and open it iv VLC (which is set as default) it plays perfectly in a sseperate vindow. It also played perfectly in Digikam 4. In Digikam 5 I get the message (translated): "It happened something wrong with the mediaplayer". If I play MP4-files nothing happens (except for the message), with avi-files I can hear the sound but no video. As suggested I have tried to remove all gstreamer-0_10 and just keep the gstreamer 1.8.3, including the plugins base,good, bad, ugly, qt and qt5 with the same result. I've had the same problem in Digikam 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2. So if anyone has maneged to get it to work I would be really glad to hear suggestions about what to do.

You must install the additional gstreamer packages from Packman repository.

Besides having supported video codec in gstreamer 1.0 series of plugins you also need the runtime dependent package libqt5multimedia5-plugins (or equal package name on your linux distribution) to have libqt5multimedia5 connect to the gstreamer codec plugins to play video in digikam 5. /PhilipOn Thu, Sep 29, 2016 at 8:10 AM, Maik Qualmann <[hidden email]> wrote: You must install the additional gstreamer packages from Packman repository. |
I use for the digiKam development openSUSE Tumbleweed, all video formats play
fine. No settings for this in digikam. But first with the gstreamer-plugin-libav (ffmpeg). Maik On Donnerstag, 29.

I finally got it working. First I reinstalled all the gstreamer-0_10, without
any result. The I tried to fix another problem (kmail 5.3 crashing, probably because of conflict with the driver for nvidia-card), where I ended up with including the Factory-repository to cboltz and did a "zypper dup". In the process it did include or upgrade a few gstreamerpackages (sorry I did not take note of which ones). Anyway, after that it worked :-) So maybe a "zypper dup" (or adding gstreamer-plugin-libav) could be the sollution also for others?

In reply to this post by Maik Qualmann
Hi,
just a short question - a little OT - sorry: I never could play videos directly from digikam. I am on Windows (8.1). Is there something I can do about this? VLC is installed. Thanks.
