A video player based on Qt and FFmpeg
-
my project: https://github.com/wang-bin/QtAV
It is also can be found on sourceforge. you can download development files when using mingw:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtavI am writing a player just using Qt and FFmpeg. I find that it is not very difficult.
Building in Windows requires FFmpeg and portaudio development files. You can get them from http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtav/files/depends They can used by both MinGW and VC.
The qmake project is well designed. When running qmake for the first time, it will check whether FFmpeg and portaudio is support. It also does other optional check such as GDI+ and Direct2D. To recheck, you may delete ".qmake.cache" in build dir.Features:
play, pause, seek, play 1 frame, speed control, display quality control, volume control, video capture, eq, audio channel and track select, fullscreen, HW decoding(DXVA2, CUDA) etc.
Multiple render engine support: QPainter, OPenGL, GDI+(win), Direct2D(win)
low memory usage when playing large files(less then mplayer)QtAV supports QML since 1.2.4
QtMultiMedia in Qt5 is good, but it relies on the platforms. Usually you can not play many videos unless you install the codecs. With QtAV, any format supported by FFmpeg can be decoded, without installing additional codecs.
Replacing QtMultiMedia qml code by QtAV is easy. The qmlvideofx example in QtMultiMedia module can be changed to QtAV engine with only several lines change.

More and better hardware decoding, more render engines, component framework, effects(filters), subtitle, better gui etc.QtAV runs fine on android now!

version 1.3.3 2014-04-20-
CUDA support for windows and linux. (The first player/library support CUDA decoding on linux?)
-
Renderering 16-bit YUV (for example Hi10P) for both OpenGL and OpenGL ES2.
maybe it's the first player/library supports rendering 10-bit using OpenGL ES2. VLC, XBMC and mplayer can't
Supported format: 9, 10, 12, 14, 16 bit, planar, little/big endian.The performance is good. I tested a 10bit h264 video on HTC butterfly S, cpu usage is about 10% less than vlc.

Sometimes video hang and blink continuesly ,so what is the remedey
these type of issues in videoplayer developed by using Qt with ffmpeg -
would you please give me the video cause the problems?
maybe the latest code fix this. i have the same problem some days ago.

yes. read wiki https://github.com/wang-bin/QtAV/wiki/Build-QtAV
[quote author="Jeroi" date="1398274659"]Is there tutorial how to build in windows with Qt Creator 3.0?
I have installed portadui bulds and lates fmpeg builds to Qt5 mingw path but none of the example codes or what so ever will compile, It says unknow reference to some functions....[/quote]

bq. "QtAV supports QML since 1.2.4"
That's a good news , this might interest me :-)

Hi
I try to include player in my project. I downloaded 1.3.4 version and it compile well. I installed QtAV module to Creator via sdk_install.bat. My problem is to see the AVPlayer class as provided in examples. I can't import the necessary files, Creator can't detect it. The .pro file was changed according recommendations.
mscv2012.
Qt 5.2.1
QCreator 3.0.1

Man, so much work and dedication, thank you very much for sharing this!
You said that "it is not very difficult" to write this player, but this already saved me a lot of time.
I want to create a similar framework that plays and edit videos, so you helped a lot and for free!
Thank a lot, you are an amazing person!
Have a greatful day, you deserve it!
