Video thumbnails - what does it need? (I forgot...)
 
|
Hi,
After upgrade to OpenSuse 42.1/KDE plasma 5, my digikam 5.3.0 does not show video thumbnails anymore. I know I had to install something additional, but I forgot what... Can somebody remind me, please? Thanks Daniel (ffmpegthumbnailer is installed, thought it was that, but it isn't...) -- Daniel Bauer photographer Basel Barcelona http://www.daniel-bauer.com |

Hi Daniel,
you may notice this: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=834131 --> last posting bei Simon Frei. As far as I understand it, it should be fixed in DK 5.4.

DK 5.3.0 use Qt5Multimedia. In background under Linux GStreamer codecs are used. Good luck, GStreamer is a big maze and i personalty lost a lots of time to be able to see something working properly with video. So no way with GStreamer runtimes. It's a waste of time. And it's not possible to bundle the AppImage with GStreamer. So 5.3.0 bundle do not work with video... Voilà. Now 5.4.0 is back with NO Qt5Multimedia support. We use now QtAV framework in place for video and audio. In background, ffmpeg codecs are used WITHOUT runtime dependencies. This permit to bundle the application as well, WITH video support...

This is not enough.
digiKam video support is optional at compilation time. Probably the is turned off by your Linux packager. Contact your distro team to turn on this option while packaging. Note AppImage Linux bundle has this option turned on, of course. Using the bundle is the most faster way to have this feature on your computer...

Can I get digikam to tell me whether it was compiled with the video
support option? I want to be sure this is the problem before filing a bug.

Jim, /Philipyou can check if your version of digikam is built with video support if you open digikam and check in the menu under Help > Components Information. For Digikam 5.0-5.3, if you in the list of components have QtMultimedia and some version number (what ever version of it was used when being compiled) and for Digikam 5.4 and newer instead check for LibQtAV and some version number for that. If they are not listed with versions for either version of Digikam then you have no support for video enabled in digikam with the build you are using. If not there then Digikam needs to be rebuilt with it enabled to make the feature available what ever you try to install on your system after to get the feature.

Thank you, that's just want I needed.
Indeed, the list of components does not mention LibQtAV, and it also says that Media player support is disabled, which seems like a bad choice too.

In this case digiKam is not compiled with video support. It's a packaging problem. Gilles Caulier 2017-02-26 20:32 GMT+01:00 Jim Gomi <[hidden email]>: Thank you, that's just want I needed. |

You have already discussed this issue with the Fedora maintainers, and they told you they couldn't supply video support because of non-free components that digikam now requires: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+GillesCaulier/posts/L2Q2ke8h6Ze https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=375399 |
