QMediaPlayer and UNC paths

[VictorLamoine]

I'm trying to load a video from a network using UNC paths.
The code snippet is the following one:

projectDirectory = QFileDialog::getExistingDirectory (this,
                                                tr ("Choose project folder (sensor + video data"),
                                                QDir::homePath(), QFileDialog::ShowDirsOnly);

QDir dir(projectDirectory);
QStringList test = dir.entryList();
qDebug () << projectDirectory << "contains:" << endl << test;
mediaPlayer.setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile(projectDirectory+"/video.mov"));

The code snippet works for a local file but doesn't work when the path begins with //.

Example output:

"//m4800/Partage/111" contains: 
(".", "..", "HandBrake.txt", "sensors.csv", "video.mov")
