[bugzilla_noreply]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366387

            Bug ID: 366387
           Summary: video (mts  and mov) not played (neither from camera
                    nor local file)
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.0.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: AlbumsView
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

Version 5.0 is great - nice progress !

However I am no longer able to see the videos in digikam. The preview is still
correct, but the video is not playing. Instead it shows:

"Mit dem Medienspieler ist ein Fehler aufgetreten ..."

From shell I find the following:

digikam.database: Complete scan took: 2645 msecs.
digikam.general: Event is dispatched to desktop notifier through DBUS
digikam.general: Stacked View Mode :  6
digikam.general: Error:  "Das QMediaPlayer-Objekt hat keinen gültigen Dienst"
digikam.general: Stacked View Mode :  6
digikam.general: Error:  "Das QMediaPlayer-Objekt hat keinen gültigen Dienst"

I am not able to play neither mov (Canon) nor mts (Sony).

I am unavailable the next four week - hope these details suffice to track the
problem.

Thanks,

Georg

digiKam use with 5.0.0 Qt5Multimedia to play video files.

Qt5Multimedia under Linux use GStreamer backend, as explained here :

http://wiki.qt.io/Qt_5.7_Multimedia_Backends

So you need to install GStreamer "bad", "good", and "ugly" codec packages.
There will be detected at run-time by Qt5Multimedia.

Hi Gilles,

I have installed gstreamer 1.0 and gstreamer1.0-plugins-good / bad /ugly. The
latter one also one with amr. There are also gstreamer0.1 plugins but here ugly
is missing.

Behaviour is unchanged. See below:

These message come from Qt5::Multimedia :

digikam.general: Video monitoring is not available.
digikam.general: Failed to extract video thumbnail for

It's not a digiKam implmeentation problem but a run time from Qt5::Multimedia +
the low level backend used by this framework to handle video files.

Report this problem to Qt team.

I close this file now, as we remove Qt5::Multimedia dependency to digiKam and
replaced it by QtAv which use ffmpeg codecs as well...

Yes, I have seen that it works now but was unsure why it worked again. My
inital trials to find a cause in QT5 were unsuccessful.
Good Job !
