Unable to play video

ldd YOUREXE

to see which Qt libs it really uses. Could be that system Qt libs are used. Also qtmultimedia5-dev is only needed if you want to build your app.

@jsulm
I think ldd output is ok -

@Jonathan-Levanon Does /home/innereye/Qt5.10.0/5.10.0/gcc_64/plugins/video/gstvideorenderer/ exist and is there anything inside?

Jonathan Levanon

No. But it does not also exist on the computer that can play the videos...

@Jonathan-Levanon If the app is crashing you should debug it to see where exactly it crashes. This strace errors are not necessarily related to the crash.

Jonathan Levanon

This is the output I get when it is crashing

(myApp:2322): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_caps_copy: assertion 'GST_IS_CAPS (caps)' failed

(myApp:2322): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: /build/glib2.0-7ZsPUq/glib2.0-2.48.2/./gobject/gtype.c:4273: type id '0' is invalid

And for mp4 files I get:

Hi,

Might be a silly question but did you check that you have the GStreamer plugin packages installed on that machine ?

Jonathan Levanon

Yes. The weird thing is that on this computer qt works with the 0.10 version of gstreamer, and on the others with 1.0. Can I change it?
Both are installed (including plugins)

Jonathan Levanon

@jsulm I've compiled on the same computer, still get the same errors :(

Jonathan Levanon

Update - After a very long day, turns out that opencv lib was linked to gstreamer0.10, qt to 1.0. This did not work well obviously.
When compiling opencv with linking to gstreamer1.0, works ok.
