    hey, the problem is that you need to write it like this:
    set(PKG_CONFIG_PATH=C:/gstreamer/1.0/msvc_x86_64/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH)
    this way it should work, I had the same problem last week

    Where do you install gstreamer and where do you install pkgconfig folder in lib ?

      open one of the pc files and check if the prefix is correct.

      The installed pkg config path is basically fixed under lib. Do not try to change it.

                  @Bala_suresh said in GStreamer with QT6:

                  C:/Program Files/gstreamer/1.0/msvc_x86_64/include

                  isn't that obvious enough?

                      I'm giving up...
                      Run the pkg-config command on the command line and you will see I would guess.
