    Hi here!
    And thank you in advance !
    I am wondering if there is a way to get list of currently supporting video file formats (extensions) in Qt/Qml ? Not a video codecs. I need it for setting file dialog nameFilters with that, so the user will select video which Qt can play.

      Hi,

      I don't remember such a possibility. It would be anyway complicated as a file extension does not necessarily provides the adequate information. You can have different containers using different video codecs and audio codecs but the extension wont't change.
