    Default Media Player for Windows.

    Hi all

    I am using Qt4.3 on Windows Xp, I want to ask is there any API with trolltech to make media player using QT4 for windows.

    Or how can I make media player for windows.

    With the commercial edition you can use the ActiveQt module to embed an activeX component in your application (including the media player). Since Qt 4.4 you'll be able to use the Phonon module to have a more direct approach to playing multimedia in your app.

    The other alternative is to build on something like vlc, ffmeg, or the directshow sdk, which have an API (albeit much more low level) for these tasks. Phonon will give you basic playback, but if you want more then you will need to dig deeper and it will be a lot more work.

    Thanks 4 all the replies

    I tried to use Active Qt.

    I got some linking error

    "QAxContainerd. lib(qaxobject .obj) : fatal error LNK1202: "C:\mediaplayer\debug\vc6.0.pdb" is missing debugging information for referencing module "

    Try compiling in release mode - you might not have all the libraries needed in debug mode.

    Add this to your project file, rerun qmake and recompile the project:

    CONFIG -= debug
    CONFIG +=release
