QML MediaPlayer stopped playing local Audio in Qt 6.6

McNepp02

Hi,

I'm using a MediaPlayer in QML. For testing, I provide URLs referencing local Audio files.

In Qt 6.4.3, the following worked:

...
mediaPlayer.source = "file://C:/Windows/media/Ring02.wav"
mediaPlayer.play()
...

With Qt 6.6.3, however, it does not play anything, but eventually reports an error 1, Could not open file

I've already tried to percent-encode the URL, but to no avail.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Can you try to force the native plugin for Windows ?

Hi,
thanks for your reply. AFAIK, in Qt 6 there are no backend-plugins for Multimedia anymore.
Thus, I'm not sure what you suggest I should do.

There are still plugins, the way they are managed has changed. Currently the native and ffmpeg with default being ffmpeg since 6.5.
