    build from source with debug info, run in the debugger and have a look at the stack trace.

      @Lim-SAS I just tested this example with 5.15.3 on LUbuntu 22.04 and did not have problem to launch it.

      @JoeCFD Thanks for the try.

      Q1) You were able to see the camera display in real time ?

      Q2) how did you install qt-creator and the multimedia library (offline installer ? sources compilation? online installer ? ubuntu packages ?)

        @Lim-SAS Sorry I did not see camera display in real time because I do not have camera in my computer. qtcreator is installed by
        sudo apt-get install qtcreator.

          ah, ok ... My app crashes only when a camera is there. If not, there is no crash.

            I have been fallowing the https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git tutorial but the compilation fails at early stage. it's annoying.

                Sure, but I think it will take too much time for uncertain result. I will persevere in this way when I will be really desperate ;)

                As written here : https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/supported-platforms.html
                there is no support of QT5 for ubuntu 22_04. Maybe my issue has no solution.

                  This is wrong. Qt5 works just fine with Ubuntu 22.04. There is no mention of Ubuntu 22.04 simply because it did not exist when that page was created.
                  Ubuntu 22.04 even provides Qt5 packages...

                      @Lim-SAS Try the following to see if you can find something if gstreamer is applied in this example.
                      export GST_DEBUG=5
                      or run
                      strace app
                      to see if something is obvious.

                        @JoeCFD
                        after reinstalling ubuntu 22.04 from scratch, I now have an error that is displayed at the very beginning of runtime:
                        cameraBin error : "Internal error: could not render surface"
                        cameraBin error : "Internal data stream error"

                        after 4 hours of search of a similar problem on the internet, I could not find any solution. Does it ring a bell to you ?

                            Hello eveyone,
                            I've been using "camera example" of QT 5.12.2 in ubuntu 18_04 and everyting was fine.

                            Then, when I moved to Ubuntu 22_04, this exemple crash at startup.
                            Debugger show that it is always in the same thread, called "viewfinderbin-q"

                            I've tried online installer, that provides QT 5.15.3, I have the same issue with the same consequence

                            Please notice that the QML camera example work fine, I can see my face on webcam !.

                            Any idea how to make camera example work ?

                            many thanks

                            You can see this video about Qt Camera Functionlity Or Qt Multimedia Moudle Functionlity.

                              just found how to fix it !
                              execute the magic : sudo apt purge gstreamer1.0-vaapi
                              then it's ok.

                              I hope it helps
