Enable Gstreamer in Qt5 configuration
-
Dear all,
I'm a newbie.
I got an issue and I try to solve it but unsuccessfully.
Could you please give me advice ?
I want play and video on Linux embedded,
I install Gstreamer and I can play video with command (gst-launch)
But in Qt configuration I can not enable Gstreamer option.
I try with command "configure -v " but no information about gstreamer is displayed.
Did i install lack of any package?
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! -
Hi and welcome to devnet,
AFAIK gstreamer is the default backend on linux but it must be detected. Did you install the dev package ?
-
Thank for your reply.
I installed gstreamer-0.10.36 and gst-plugins-good, bad,ugly, ffmpeg...
Is it enough? What's dev package that you mention? -

Is it enough?[/quote]No, those are runtime packages, not development packages.[quote]What's dev package that you mention?[/quote]It should look like libgstreamer0.10-dev

Dear JKSH,
Thanks for your support.
I installed libqtgstreamer-dev.
But when I run configuration again nothing change.
Does it need any more packages? -
Did you just re-run configure or did you clean up before ?
-
Dear SGaist,
Thanks for your advice.
I just rerun configuration,
Could you please tell me how to clean up old configuration on Qt5 without git? -
IIRC, it should be
@make confclean@
-
Dear SGaist
I tried and got error.
After searching on Google, I found that this command is not work with Qt5
Do you have any ideas? -
Are you doing an out of source build ?
-
I'm doing in qt-everywhere-opensource where I run command configuration.
It got error result, but when I try this command in qtbase it run successfully.
I run configuration again and nothing change.
Gstreamer is not enabled, and no information about it >"< -
If you are using a source package I would say, delete your current sources and start from new.
Also, use the shadow build possibility, this way you can play with the configuration without cluttering your sources
-
Dear SGalst,
Thanks for a lot of support you give to me.
Do you mean that I should delete the current qt-everywhere-opensource...
uncompress file and configuration again ?
I will try it .
I have one more question.
In my Qt configuration information, GLIB is disable,
If I want to enable Gstreamer, I need to enable GLIB, is it right ? or they don't have any relation ?Again, thank you so much!
-
Yes, that's what I mean.
Disabled or not detected ?
-

Are you cross-compiling Qt ?
-
Yes. It's cross-compiling.
-
Yes, it's cross-compiling.
-
That's the kind of detail you should have mention earlier...
First thing, did you install a cross-compiling environment ? Did you pass the correct parameters to configure to enable cross-compilation ? Did you get the cross-compiled version of the dependencies you need ?
-
Dear SGalt,
Sorry about mention cross-compiling lately.
The cross-compiling is installed in my system, it is linaro-arm-linux-
About parameters to configure, I think Qt can autodetect Gstreamer so I don't pass any option for Gstreamer in command.
When configuration, nomally it will display information why option is disable, which errors occurs... so I can fix errors and option is enable . With Gstreamer, nothing to display, it makes me confusion.
Thank for your support.
