Hi,

What version of GStreamer do you have ?
Which plugins ?
What version of Qt are you using ?
What distribution are you running ?

[Ramiz]

GStreamer 1.0 and QT version 5.10

[SGaist]

There are two missing answers.

As for further trouble shooting: run your application with the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable set to 1. You can do that in the Run part of the Project panel.

@jsulm @SGaist I have solved that issue by updating the Linux version and now my camera opens but didn’t display anything as shown in picture.

Do you know what’s the issue now?

[jsulm]

@Ramiz Did you try to use your camera with for example Cheese?

[Ramiz]

@jsulm Yes cheese is working fine and even when I run it from Qt the flash light of camera gets on or visible but no display.

Are you running on a native linux machine or are you in a Virtual Machine?
I ask because I usually get the same results as you do when in a VM.
