The Qt Media module offers media related features such as video/sound player. It is based on the Base module.
The following configure line can be used to build the Base and Media module only:
./configure -modules media -device xyz
Note that not specifying a device profile would result in the reference device being build. The -qtopiamedia option is equivalent to the -modules media option.
The Qt Extended Media Support is provided by this module. The media server controls the media engine via plug-in mechanism. This enables a flexible approach when it comes to the choice if media engine. The engine can be a software based engine such as gstreamer or a hardware engine if the target device has special purpose media hardware. Currently three media engines are supported:
The qtopiamedia library provides Client API's for simplified media client applications. An example is given by the simple mediaplayer tutorial.
Feature | Details |
---|---|
Media engine control | The media server provides a plug-in system which allows the incorporation of arbitrary media engines. At this stage three media engines are supported. This module includes the plug-ins to utilize the various engines. In addition audio management can be used to control priorities among multiple audio streams. |
Media Client API | The media client API enables classes for rapid media client development. The provided API incorporates the required IPC mechanism to interface with the media server. |
Other features | The following features are included in this module:
|
The Media module includes the following major software components:
The exact list of components included in this module can be found in $QPEDIR/src/module_media.pri.
The test plan for the Media module summarizes the Quality Assurance procedures for this module. The results of these test are available here.
