Then do you mean: does Qt provide a way to read this tag ? Or are you looking for which widget can show the content once you got the data ?

Thank you! QString file = filemodel->data(index, Qt::DisplayRole).toString(); QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl::fromLocalFile(file)); Works perfekt! :D

@Xicor I have no idea, sorry. Maybe someone else knows that.

@kybernetes You can use a 3rd party library to do this. I suggest taking a look at the guide on how to use id3lib with Qt. Basically it shows you how to add id3lib to your project.

"Linux itself" is a bit broad. Is it Ubuntu based ? Debian based ? Something completely custom ? Does it use a package manager ?

@mnokka Are you sure your path is correct? If Qt can't find the file it gives the "error decoding source" message which is misleading. Add files to your resource file: (If you haven't already created one go to File | New | Qt | Qt Resource File). Click Add existing files then select sound files you want Right click and copy path Paste path to play filename. e.g. QSound::play(":/lose.wav");
