QMediaPlayer does not play videos with .yuv and .y4m extension

[gopi]

Hello,
I want to play videos with .y4m or .yuv extension inside my Qt Application. I am using QT 5.4 on windows 8. I had written the following lines of code.

     QMediaPlayer *player = new QMediaPlayer;
     QVideoWidget *videoWidget = new QVideoWidget;
     QFile *file = new QFile(path to local file);
     if(!file->open(QIODevice::ReadOnly))
         qDebug() << "Could not open file";
     QUrl url = QUrl::fromLocalFile(path to local file);
     player->setMedia(url, file);
     player->setVideoOutput(videoWidget);
     videoWidget->show();
     player->play();

The video files play well with the windows media player. QMediaPlayer is able to play videos with .avi extension but not y4m or yuv videos. can anyone help me?
