h.264 license for playing video in Qt Multimedia / Qt WebEngine QML

[nlazovic 0]

We are considering purchasing H.264 license for vide playback in our QML app.
Before do that, we have few questions re h.264 license for playing video in Qt Multimedia / Qt WebEngine QML

1. is h.264 license needed for playing video in both Qt Multimedia and Qt WebEngine QML or just Qt WebEngine ?
2. based on https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtmultimedia-qmlmodule.html, during QT build we do need to just add "-webengine-proprietary-codecs" param to configure phase. Is that all it is needed to build Qt for proprietary codecs ?
3. can you point me to any document explaining how to register license on our raspberry Pi based platform ?
4. any suggestion where to get h.264 license (https://www.mpegla.com or https://x264.org/en/ or ...) for our Qt based video playback ?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

Hi,

Did you consider using http://www.openh264.org/ ?

@SGaist thanks for response.
Assume we use http://www.openh264.org/, I guess we would compile it for our Raspberry Pi based platform.
Correct ?
Are there steps to configure QT (or underlying libs) to use newly compiled openh264 codec ?
