Newby needs help building QMediaPlayer Example

zambotti

Trying to make a simple code example that uses XMediaPlayer to play a couple of mp3 files.

Partial code below, followed by error codes.

The build is for Simulator Qt for MinGW 4.4 (Nokia Qt SDK) (Nokia Forum QT 4.7.0)

Any ideas for this newby lab rat developer. (I haven't used this IDE before)
@
#include "mainwindow.h"
#include "ui_mainwindow.h"
#include <QtMultimediaKit/QMediaPlayer.h>

MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :
QMainWindow(parent),
ui(new Ui::MainWindow)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
delete ui;
}

void MainWindow::playAudioFile(QString localFile)
{
QMediaPlayer *player; // line 19
player = new QMediaPlayer; // Line 20
// line 21
player->setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile(localFile)); // line 22
player->setVolume(50); // line 23
player->play(); // line 24
}

void MainWindow::on_playButton1_clicked()
{
playAudioFile(ui->lineEdit1->text());
}

void MainWindow::on_playButton2_clicked()
{
playAudioFile(ui->lineEdit2->text());
}

Looks like a linking problem.

Did you include QtMobility and Multimediakit in your .pro file?

danilocesar

Adding mobility and multimediakit to your .pro solved the problem?

zambotti

Thanks for quick reply. I think your telling me to add the mobility and multimediakit librarys to the build step. Linking der!!! Is this correct? Do I manually edit the build step or is there an gui option for adding libraries in QT creater?

danilocesar says that you have to add these in your .pro file manually

@
CONFIG += mobility
MOBILITY = multimedia

There is a media player mobility example, you can check for it in the Qt assistant
