Solved Supporting ogg/vorbis with QMediaPlayer

[TheFlyingMooseMan]

Hi,

What is needed to play .ogg (ogg/vorbis) files with QMediaPlayer on OS X?

Thanks for any reply or pointers.

@TheFlyingMooseMan
Qt's multimedia module uses the platform codecs.

@Ratzz : understood -- how do I install these on OS X?

You may find some hints here

@Ratzz Thanks, but these websites are merely for end-users -- i.e.: installing XiphQT did not make my QT project player instantly play ogg/vorbis files. Thanks anyways!

Did anyone get this working so far? Or am I really unique in trying to accomplish this?

Follow up -- I ended up creating my own classes to read and play mp3, ogg/vorbis, flac and wave files.
