Hey there,

I'd like to design a three dimensional wall of widget.

Like this :

Every screenshot on that wall would be a video widget.

I'd like to get your advice on how you would do that:

- Opengl ?
- QGraphicView ?

What would you suggest.

in my view Arthur Paint framework would be better for such purpose , as it would more portable solution in compariosn to oepnGl . Embedded devices which don't have computational capacity for opengl won't be able able to support your app if it uses openGl .
just give a look to Embedded Dialog Demo in Qtdemo>demonstration , it uses QGraphicsView for painting dilaog boxes with transformations. "This example shows how to embed standard dialogs into Graphics View. It also shows how you can customize the proxy class and add window shadows"(from docmentation)
coverflow can also form a good reference ( http://ariya.blogspot.com/2007/10/pictureflow-clone-of-coverflow-as-qt.html )
