[SOLVED] QML Image: Error downloading http:.... - server replied: Not Acceptable

yazwas

Good day

I'm writing an app that has an rss feed part, but when trying to display the image within the rss feed, for example this image
!http://static.sport360.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/uae_main_home/153269720.jpg(actual image)!

using regular Image Item in QML, I'm getting this error:

QML Image: Error downloading http://static.sport360.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/uae_main_home/153269720.jpg - server replied: Not Acceptable

How to solve this problem

Thanks!

Would you please post some code to give more details on your problem?

I found the solution.
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-19259

I had to provide a user-agent header to the NetworkAccessManagerFactory, somehow the server requested that.

Good you solved that problem.

Hello,

unfortunately the solution provided does not work with Qt Quick 2 anymore. On my Mac I get the following error while retrieving the user-agent (according to the problem report generated):
bq.

bq.

I suppose this has to do with using a QGuiApplication instead of a QApplication object as in Qt Quick 1.

Any hints to get this working with Qt Quick 2?
