    Question how to use gstreamer with Qt

    Hi,,

    I would like to use gstreamer with Qt.. and I know that gstreamer uses it's own loop.. and Qt uses it's loop.. so how would i integrate gstreamer in Qt..

    any sample code would be very helpful..

    How about using Phonon which uses a gstreamer backend on X11, but other backends on other platforms? This way you're not tied to any specific platform.

    So what's the problem? Are we talking about the same gstreamer? Why can't you use gstreamer through Phonon?

    A chat application? You mean a videophone? If you provide a media source to operate upon then why not...

    If you try to describe what you are having problems with, maybe the answer to the question will be a bit longer as well. Read about Phonon in Qt Assistant and when you have specific questions about it, come back and ask them.

    ok .. this is what i have in mind, i am trying to integrate a SIP based client on to Qt and that client makes use of gstreamer.. so that was why i asked about the gstreamer onto Qt support.. I knew that phonon provides a gst, ds, xine .. support .. but what if i want to go with gstreamer and Qt alone with no phonon(i am not against phonon )...
    just a simple gstreamer + Qt usage.. that's it..

    now since u asked me to go thru assistant. for phonon.. i would also like to put forth another question..
    I am unable to play mp3 and .... http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/phonon...st/000231.html on Nokia N810 device and it's because of dspmp3sink and dsppcmsink.. any idea how to get that working...

    thanks for responding..

    Take a look at this lib: http://gitorious.org/projects/dlib

    It has a media component that uses GStreamer. It should at least give you an idea of how to integrate Qt and GStreamer in you app.
