Local file format

UnitScan

I am slowly coming to the solution of the age-old problem of reading metadata. These are my experimental observations:

reader is a in a istance of QMediaPlayer, and playlist is a istance of QMediaPlaylist

If I write

reader->setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile("D:/mysong.mp3"));

The metadata is read correctly on the signal QMediaPlayer::LoadedMedia.

But when I try to load the file from the playlist, the code doesn't work

reader->setMedia((playlist->media(n)));

with n a natural number

Any suggestion?

Thank you in advance

UnitScan

Solved

QString mediafile = playlist->media(n).request().url().toString();
QFileInfo fi(mediafile);
reader->setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile(fi.absoluteFilePath()));
