How to let the Phonon to use third party decoder when needed
Hi,
I am using QPhonon in my app to play different encoded type videos. As Phonon uses the default back end decoder (ex:FfdShow on windows), It may not be able to decode all encoded type videos. So I am thinking of using third party codes to decode specific encoded types. Now I want to know If I can redirect the Phonon to these codes when it is not possible with the default back end codecs.
Your suggestions would be really greatful.
Thank You,
Baluk

No, the codecs need to be installed in your system so that the backend can access them. Other than that you can implement your own phonon backend which will do what you require.

Oke. Thank you for the reply. I will have to look for other solutions then as implementing phonon backend is out of my knowledge.

Why can't you simply install the codec in the system?
