    I have qt 5.4.2 (complete sdk bundle) and docs aren't available in html form.
    but it is possible that other bundles have them.

    see if you can find all pages of docs in .html files? (all class references, tutorials, examples)

    I haven't monitored that lately as I don't use ActiveQt myself, but from what I know ActiveQt is meant to be part of the OS release as well. If it's not, this is probably because of some licencing issues.

    I think this is a subtle policy that open source version is available in binary form only with mingw that hasn't phonon module pre-compiled.
    I am a technical guy myself, but couldn't re-compile the whole qt successfully with mingw (additionally it is bothersome since takes many hours every time).

    Make the day have 30 hours instead of 24 and I'll prepare a "guide for newbies" especially for you.

    The docs are generated form the source code. You have all the tools you need so there is no problem in regenerating them if you need them and somehow didn't find them on your system.

    Probably so. Also because Trolltech has always been pushing the use of MinGW instead of MSVC in the open-source edition. MSVC support has always been a battle between Trolltech and the community and eventually Trolltech yielded (somewhere around Qt 4.2 as far as I remember).
    This is really their choice you know... The project is open-source - you have access to the sources, the licence doesn't specify you have to have access to all possible binary versions for all possible platforms. If you want Qt pre-compiled for MSVC, consider buying a commercial licence.

    oh, you are using linux!
    on windows there is not such html directory (qtsdk2009.02 & qtsdk2009.03).
    just out of curiosity, what is your distro?

    There are indeed no html docs in the sdk, there is no need for them anymore since the help system uses compressed help files. If you want something non-standard, unfortunately you have to deal with it yourself - run make adp_docs which should get the html docs built.

    it can have many reasons. e.g. GNU/linux uses kde as one of its desktop environments and if you have kde installed (probably old) docs may be installed too.
    additionally, linux has a different structure, philosophy, standards, and way for doing things.
    probably different people make its qt packages. etc.
    it can be different simply for other reasons that I can't guess.

    now I have phonon backend compiled with mingw.
    two files are created in plugins\phonon_backend directory: libphonon_ds94.a and phonon_ds94.dll

    musicplayer and capabilities examples compiled and work perfectly.
    but I have problem with video. it has not colors and 4 pictures are repeated in width (screenshot is attached).
    can anybody help me? I have no idea about the reason.

    my code was this:
    Qt Code:
    1. Phonon::VideoPlayer *player = new Phonon::VideoPlayer(Phonon::VideoCategory, 0);
    2. player->show();
    3. player->play(Phonon::MediaSource("s.wmv"));
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    I am using qt 4.5.2 and phonon compiled with MinGW and MS DX SDK 2008.
    my configure command line was:
    configure -release -fast -no-exceptions -no-qt3support -no-3dnow -phonon -phonon-backend -no-webkit -no-scripttools -no-direct3d

    The colours are probably caused by incorrect codecs being used by the player. You probably have to install them or somehow tell your system which ones to use.
