    IIRC, since 5.8 the backend uses GStreamer 1.0. Otherwise, you can re-build the QtMultmedia module yourself against GStreamer 1.0

    On a side note, unless you need specific features or bug fixes of more recent versions, why not use your distribution provided Qt for development ?

      It depends on what you need, either use the Qt from your distribution or indeed a more recent version. Current is 5.8.0 and 5.9Beta2 is available.

        @SGaist
        well ,Thank you
        i will try to compile QT5.7.1 against GStreamer 1.0. can you give me some instructions? thank you!
        another thing is how to support hardware-accelerate? or it support it by default,but the default behavior of Gstreamer seem not enable hardware-accelerate.
        my project finally runs on raspberry pi3, i do a lot efforts to make the QT5.7 deployed on rpi3. i'm worried about QT5.8....
        i find a description:
        1,install gstream1.0*
        install libgstreamer1.0*
        2, cd qt5.7.1
        run ./configure -gstreamer 1.0
        make
        make install
        is it right?

          You don't need to re-build everything, if you already have a build then just re-build the QtMultimedia module.

              i finish the reinstall work with all modules rebuild,the output result is still NG.
              play the video with gstreamer command the output is below:

              the video can play normally.

                Is that on your Pi or on your desktop ? If on your Pi then there's something strange since it talks about a i386 version of the package and the Pi is an ARM based machine.

                    currently , i just test on my ubuntu. my host is x64bit. i install gstreamer1.0 with command sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0
                    and can help give steps about how to rebuild only qtmultimedia module with gstreamer1.0?

                          @SGaist
                          the command line is :
                          1,sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0
                          2,sudo apt-get install libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-0 libqgsttools-p1 libqt5multimedia5-plugins gstreamer1.0-libav libges-1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev libgstreamermm-1.0-0v5 libgstreamermm-1.0-dev libqt5gstreamer-1.0-0 libqt5gstreamer-dev libqt5gstreamerquick-1.0-0 libqt5gstreamerui-1.0-0 libqt5gstreamerutils-1.0-0 libqtglib-2.0-0 libqtgstreamer-1.0-0 libqtgstreamer-dev libqtgstreamerui-1.0-0 libqtgstreamerutils-1.0-0 qtgstreamer-plugins-qt5 qtgstreamer-plugins ubuntu-restricted-extras
                          some packages may be useless,i don't know exactly.
                          when trying to rebuild QtMultimedia module with gstreamer1.0 ,following the steps:
                          1, run command1 && command 2,
                          2, cd qt5.7.1
                          run ./configure -gstreamer 1.0
                          (NO need to rebuild qtbase and other modules.)
                          3, cd to qtmultimedia folder
                          run qmake
                          run make install
                          is it right? thank you !

                              the qmake is the path of qt5.7.1 installed ,it was generated by the last make install (with default gsteamer 0.1), is it right way as you mentioned ¨just re-build the QtMultimedia module. ¨?

                                Which version exactly ? You seem to have started by configuring a new version of Qt rather than build the QtMultimedia module with the version your already installed.

                                  the version is QT5.7.1 i have install with QtMultimedia using gstreamer0.1.
                                  i try to rebuild the QtMultimedia module with the version i already installed,
                                  should i parse what parameters to let the QtMultimedia module know that it should use gstreamer1.0 instead of gstreamer0.1? can you give instructions please?

                                    Which version exactly ? You seem to have started by configuring a new version of Qt rather than build the QtMultimedia module with the version your already installed.

                                    thank you for your great support,
                                    but i found a strange thing:
                                    i can not play the .wmv or .mp4 video even when i try to use QT5.8(install by qt-opensource-linux-x64-5.8.0.run, host is ubuntu 16.04),
                                    after i install Qt5.8, i use the Qtcreator4.2.1 to open the project player under multimediawidgets Example, run the example, and open a Wildlife.wmv(example video under windows 7), try to play it ,just no video .output is :
                                    libva info: VA-API version 0.39.0
                                    libva info: va_getDriverName() returns 0
                                    libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_drv_video.so
                                    libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_0_39
                                    libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0

                                    I installed gstreamer with following commands:
                                    1,sudo apt-get install gstreamer1.0
                                    2,sudo apt-get install libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-0 libqgsttools-p1 libqt5multimedia5-plugins gstreamer1.0-libav libges-1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-dev libgstreamermm-1.0-0v5 libgstreamermm-1.0-dev libqt5gstreamer-1.0-0 libqt5gstreamer-dev libqt5gstreamerquick-1.0-0 libqt5gstreamerui-1.0-0 libqt5gstreamerutils-1.0-0 libqtglib-2.0-0 libqtgstreamer-1.0-0 libqtgstreamer-dev libqtgstreamerui-1.0-0 libqtgstreamerutils-1.0-0 qtgstreamer-plugins-qt5 qtgstreamer-plugins ubuntu-restricted-extras
                                    can you check it for me? the video is OK, i can play it with gst-play-1.0 or with double click.
                                    ps: i try to play a *.mp3, it works well, and there are sounds playing with no pictures if the format is mp4
