Raspberry Pi QT 5.3.2 - qt.camera not working (no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.camera"

gcs278

Hey Everyone,

I'm really stuck on a project in which I am trying to use QT 5.3.2 on. I am using a Raspberry Pi 2 (Armv7) and I have successfully compiled QT from source. I followed this tutorial: http://wiki.qt.io/Native_Build_of_Qt5_on_a_Raspberry_Pi.

Two issues I am facing:

I get a defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service forund for - "org.qt-project.qt.camera"
I get a defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service forund for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer"

For #1 I am just trying to run the camera example application. I know the camera is plugged in and working.

I've been doing a ton of research and I noticed that my /usr/local/qt5/plugins/mediaservice only contains libqtmedia_audioengine.so while my QT5.3.2 on my mac contains libqavfcamera.dylib and libqavfcamera_debug.dylib. I feel that this is really important and the absence of these packages is causing the problem.

For #2, it's the same deal. my ../qt5/plugins/mediaservice doesn't contain libqavfmediaplayer_debug.dylib or libqavfmediaplayer.dylib.

So where are these packages and why didn't running configure, make, make install, install them? Is it maybe to do with a missing ./configure option? Here is my configure command:

./configure -v -opengl es2 -device linux-rasp-pi-g''+ -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/ -opensource -confirm-license -optimized-qmake -reduce-exports -release -qt-pcre -make libs -prefix /usr/local/qt5

Also here is the output of my configure command if it helps:

Hi and welcome to devnet,

It seems you are missing the gstreamer dev package

gcs278

@SGaist Right, so I installed every package that the tutorial say to :

sudo apt-get install libfontconfig1-dev libdbus-1-dev libfreetype6-dev libudev-dev libicu-dev libsqlite3-dev libxslt1-dev libssl-dev libasound2-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev gstreamer-tools gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad libraspberrypi-dev libpulse-dev libx11-dev libglib2.0-dev libcups2-dev freetds-dev libsqlite0-dev libpq-dev libiodbc2-dev libmysqlclient-dev firebird-dev libpng12-dev libjpeg62-dev libgst-dev libxext-dev libxcb1 libxcb1-dev libx11-xcb1 libx11-xcb-dev libxcb-keysyms1 libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-image0 libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-shm0 libxcb-shm0-dev libxcb-icccm4 libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-sync0 libxcb-sync0-dev libxcb-render-util0 libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxrender-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libxi-dev libdrm-dev

Then I went and installed every apt-get gstreamer object I could. And ran make again - still did not build those packages. Do you know what could be wrong?

SGaist

The gstreamer dev package ?

And did you re-run configure from clean sources ?

gcs278

@SGaist Yup, I deleted everything and started from a clean QT5.3.2 folder. The gstreamer dev (libgstreamer0.10-dev) package is installed along with all of the extra gstreamer-plugins, gstreamer-tools, etc.

However, it is still unable to locate it. Here is the config log from ../qtmultimedia/config.log:

executing config test gstreamer
+ cd /home/pi/opt/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.3.2/qtmultimedia/config.tests/gstreamer && /home/pi/opt/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.3.2/qtbase/bin/qmake "CONFIG -= qt debug_and_release app_bundle lib_bundle" /home/pi/opt/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.3.2/qtmultimedia/config.tests/gstreamer
Project ERROR: gstreamer-0.10 development package not found
test gstreamer FAILED

I am thinking that gstreamer is not being linked by pkg-config for some reason. I did an echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH and received nothing in my terminal. So I did a export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/pkgconfig/ and I'm spinning up ./configure again.

I also ran pkg-config --exists --print-errors gstreamer-0.10 along with the other dependencies, and they all check out.

EDIT: None of that is working. The config.tests are still failing on gstreamer.

SGaist

Call configure with -v, you should have some more details on what fails
