Thank you very much
I checked with ldd and all the libraries are linked - thats fine. I copied all nessasrry Qt libs too.
But right now I am not sure if the gstreamer plugin ( libphonon_gstreamer.so) can find or has all needed libraries - during compilation I had to include libffi.a and libgstreamer-0.10.a but I installed them on the device at the same path like on my developsystem. Any Idea how I can check that or where I have to install them- As mentioned I can't install all libs I crosscompiled for the phonon framework on the device
Thanks again

You can try to run ldd on the plugins/libraries on your device to see if something is missing

Have you ensured that you have following packages installed?
libgstreamer0.10-dev
libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev
gstreamer0.10-plugins-good
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad -

Thanks again
But I didn't solve my problem yet.
I tried ldd on my plugin ( libphonon_gstreamer.so): look okay right? libphonon.so.4 => /lib/libphonon.so.4 (0x4036c000)
libQtGui.so.4 => /lib/libQtGui.so.4 (0x403bb000)
libQtNetwork.so.4 => /lib/libQtNetwork.so.4 (0x40d05000)
libQtCore.so.4 => /lib/libQtCore.so.4 (0x40dfb000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x41150000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0x41172000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x41244000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x412e7000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x41310000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4144d000)
librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0x4145b000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.3 (0x2a000000)Btw in included the plugin, libffi and libgstreamer-0.10 like this , is that okay?
LIBS += -L/usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.8.4-arm/plugins/phonon_backend/ -lphonon_gstreamer
LIBS += -L/opt/x/lib/ -lffi -lgstreamer-0.10 -lgstbase-0.10
I also included after i read shrikantds post libgstbase (good and bad are optional for the gstreamer aren't they?) but sadly nothing...
I am really sorry I didn't figured it out yet...

You should rather have copied your QtEmbedded in the same folders on your arm device (libs and plugins and fonts). Meaning in /usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbbeded-4.8.4.

thank your I copied my libs to /usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.8.4/lib but my application still isn't able to find the gstreamer plugin...
-
You also have to copy the plugins dir (at least the content that you use)

thanks but i already copied the complied plugin folder, the folder /usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.8.4/plugin I found on my development PC to my device.
-
Just to be sure: did you made a typo here with "plugin" ? Otherwise it's "plugins"

jep I'm sorry that's a typo, so for examle the libphonon_gstreamer.so is copied at:
/usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.8.4-arm/plugins/phonon_backend -
Ok, then next step:
set this
@QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1@
on your command line before starting your application, that should give you the plugin loading error -

First of all thank you very much for your help SGaist, that's really great and very nice :)
But I tried export QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1 befor starting my application, but nothing special happens (i also tried on my deveopment system, nothing, too)
QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1
./phon -qws
If I check that enviroment variable, it's set ...
echo $QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS
1 -
Are you running a debug or release build of your application (Right now i'm not sure whether this could change the output when using QT_DEBUG_PLUGIN) ?

mh I had release build but i changed to debug (CONFIG += debug) but QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS dosen't work..
-
Do you also have the debug lib from Qt on your target ?

I wan't in town yesterday so I couldn't test that yesterday - sorry for that
I'm sorry but I can't find the debug lib...I crosscompild my Qt again and added the option - debug... but no debug lib was created- and also with the libs I compiled with the debug options, the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS dosn't work
BTW I also set the PluginPath with QT_PLUGIN_PATH=... but that wasn't successful neither.
Also included: qDebug()<<QLibraryInfo::location(QLibraryInfo::PluginsPath);
It shows the correct Path("/usr/local/Trolltech/QtEmbedded-4.8.4-arm/plugins"
), where the plugin is installed... -
Did you do a clean build ?

Yes I did...
-
Just to be on the safe side, did you check the output of the configure script to see if it was a debug or release build ?

If i checked the right file ist says DEBUG=auto, however the libs I compiled with the debug options are pretty big so I think they are build during debug build
