Playing mp3s from a qrc .py file using PyQt5.QtMultimedia?
-
With PyQt4, I was able to use Phonon to play ':/sound/track1.mp3' stored inside of a qrc .py file made from pyrcc4. Is something like this still do-able using QtMultimedia from PyQt5? Or does QtMultimedia only work for localfilename mp3s?

It's not a local file. Use something like:
QMediaContent(QUrl("qrc:/sound/track1.mp3")) -
Hi,
IIRC, QtMultimedia will copy the file to a temporary file so the system can play if it can't do otherwise so it should work.

I get:
DirectShowPlayerService::doSetUrlSource: Unresolved error code 0x8007007b (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.)
When I try it.
I'm using:QMediaContent(QUrl.fromLocalFile(':/sound/track1.mp3'))And I'm beginning to think that I shouldn't be using QUrl for my content path.

QMediaContent(QUrl("qrc:/sound/track1.mp3")) -
@SGaist Cool. It's playing now. Thank you.
