with Qt Multimedia Widgets removed, is there an alternative to play video in qt6?

[alom]

I'm just jumping back into qt and wanting to start a new project with 6. It looks like the Qt Multimedia Widgets Modules where removed. Is there a current alternative to playing video with audio?

Hi,

It's not removed, it should be back in a later release. See here.

In between you can try with VLC.

Or just stay with Qt 5 and port the application to Qt 6 when all the modules you need are there.

Qt multimedia will be back in Qt 6.2

I'm not playing video in my app, but i play sound.
So, since multimedia is missing i'm playing them using liballegro

I think the library can play video also.
