QML and Video streaming

[biskero]

I am testing Qt/QML 6 and wanted to do some video streaming.
I tried to test some examples but the Multimedia is not supported.

So there is no support of video streaming yet?

Hi,

See this checklist for modules status with regard to Qt 6.

On a side note, streaming would currently only work with the GStreamer backend using a custom pipeline.

checklist

thx for the info, yes I looked at the list.
What about if I already have a live video stream from a camera using a raspberry pi, still can't without support in Qt 6 for video playback?

QtMultimedia not being available yet for Qt 6, you cannot. Either use Qt 5 or another library like OpenCV or VLC.

OpenCV

Thanks for the info!

One more question since basically you know everything :)
Can I start WiFi tethering from Qt/QML 6 on mobile devices?

[SGaist]

Only if your device provide an API for that which is likely not the case as it's rather something the user shall do.

Thanks for the info.
