Reinstall Qt5 with QtMultimedia using Ubuntu Mate

[SGaist]

Hi,

When building an extra module:

qmake
make
make install

When uninstalling:

make uninstall

[Xenoshell]

@SGaist dont u need to use a extra command if you wanna install something that is not in the default installation?

[SGaist]

What kind of command do you have in mind ?

I usually build additional modules out of source so I have the mkdir and cd commands in addition but that's pretty much all.

[Xenoshell]

@SGaist yeah how do you do that? if i just use make and make install it wont install everything/the things i need.

If i use :

qmake
make
make install

you install a normal qt5 base installation without any extra modules. QtMultimedia is not in the base installation, right? So i need a extra command to install it. Which one do i have to use

This is the ./configure output:

[SGaist]

You don't have any of the QtMultimedia dependencies installed. You need to install the dev-packages corresponding to the features you want. Most likely the GStreamer 1.0 dev packages (main library and plugins).

I meant that part:

Qt Multimedia:
  ALSA ................................... no
  GStreamer 1.0 .......................... no
  GStreamer 0.10 ......................... no
  Video for Linux ........................ yes
  OpenAL ................................. no
  PulseAudio ............................. no
  Resource Policy (libresourceqt5) ....... no
  Windows Audio Services ................. no
  DirectShow ............................. no
  Windows Media Foundation ............... no

The only thing detected is Video for Linux. As I wrote before, you should at least install the GStreamer1.0 related dev-packages

[Xenoshell]

@SGaist yeah well i already deinstalled qt5, but now how do i install qtmultimedia? I know i have to install it but how do i get the other parts too?

[SGaist]

Use the package manager of your Linux distribution to install the development packages.

[Xenoshell]

@SGaist Isnt it possible to give a command so that qtmultimedia gets installed with qtcore and qtgui too? I really want to install from source and not from a repository.

EDIT: ok i have this whole folder with many qtpackages. There is also qtmultimedia. Do i just have to switch into this folder and hit make and make install ?

EDIT2: Ok i found the commands... just use ./configure -h and you will see all commands to configure the setup

[SGaist]

Build Qt from the top source folder so all modules will be built, you can limit to the ones you want by either passing the -skip parameters for all the modules you don't want, or just delete the corresponding folders.

However, for the dependencies of QtMultimedia, either you install them using the package manager or your build and install them all by hand before building Qt.

[Xenoshell]

@SGaist Well ok i found with ./configure -help all the commands i wanted. Sadly i get a error:

ERROR: Feature 'alsa' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'config.unix && !config.qnx && libs.alsa' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'gstreamer' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'features.gstreamer_1_0 || features.gstreamer_0_10' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'pulseaudio' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.pulseaudio' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'alsa' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'config.unix && libs.alsa' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'pulseaudio' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.pulseaudio' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'system-ffmpeg' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.ffmpeg && features.system-opus && features.system-webp' failed.

Seems like not everything i wanted got downloaded. What can i do to fix that?

[jsulm]

@Xenoshell That's what @SGaist is trying to tell you: you need to install dev packages for all multimedia components you would like to use with QtMultimedia.

[Xenoshell]

@jsulm yeah ok.. thanks, i am going a little bit mental here. I thought i already installed gstreamer. Thats why i was confused. I think i know now what to do

[jsulm]

@Xenoshell You installed GStreamer but not its development packages (which for example contain the header files). You need to install the dev packages as well.

[Xenoshell]

@jsulm
I installed alsa, dbus, gstreamer, ffmpeg but they still show up as errors. What can i do?

ERROR: Feature 'dbus-linked' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'features.dbus && libs.dbus' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'alsa' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'config.unix && !config.qnx && libs.alsa' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'gstreamer_1_0' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.gstreamer_1_0' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'alsa' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'config.unix && libs.alsa' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'system-ffmpeg' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.ffmpeg && features.system-opus && features.system-webp' failed.

[jsulm]

@Xenoshell What exactly did you install? You need *-dev packages.

[Xenoshell]

@jsulm i didnt found any -dev packages. I just searched google for packages to those features that create errors and installed those but didnt saw any -dev packages

[SGaist]

https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/libgstreamer1.0-dev

[Xenoshell]

@SGaist ok thanks, i found all -dev packages for all the errors exept ffmpeg and dbus-linked.
./configure output is now:

Note: Also available for Linux: linux-clang linux-icc

Note: Dropped compiler flags '-pthread' when detecting library 'glib'.

Note: Disabling X11 Accessibility Bridge: D-Bus or AT-SPI is missing.

Note: Dropped compiler flags '-pthread' when detecting library 'gstreamer'.

Note: Dropped compiler flags '-pthread' when detecting library 'gstreamer_app'.

ERROR: Feature 'dbus-linked' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'features.dbus && libs.dbus' failed.

ERROR: Feature 'system-ffmpeg' was enabled, but the pre-condition 'libs.ffmpeg && features.system-opus && features.system-webp' failed.

Check config.log for details.

Do i actually need ffmpeg for qtMultimedia? Since it is a videoplayer i guess yes. I think i have to install this from source to and that could be a real pain..
