Not currently (playback features are simply those provided by QtMultimediaKit and accessed via QML), but it shouldn't be too difficult to read the subtitles from the file and overlay the text on the video.

Awesome!

Just a question: is your player working when started from menu? Because I have tried to play with QML video element, but it works only when started from QtCreator, than it gives me setup_buffers: couldn't allocate buffer: not-linked.

Thanks for your effort.

You need to request permission to use video playback. To do this, you add a <application_name>.aegis file to the debian_harmattan folder (same location as control file etc). Here's the content of my openvideoplayer.aegis file:

Code:

<aegis>
<request>
<credential name="GRP::video" />
<credential name="GRP::pulse-access" />
<credential name="mce::TKLockControl" />
<credential name="TrackerReadAccess" />
<credential name="TrackerWriteAccess" />
<for path="/opt/openvideoplayer/bin/openvideoplayer" />
</request>
</aegis>

The GRP::video and GRP:

ulse-access tokens are required for video playback, and the mce::TKLockControl token is required for the screensaver delay using QtMobility.systemInfo 1.1. The tracker tokens are required for using DocumentGallery.

Wait. Communication from a developer... and it's a project I can fully get behind and use daily?

Wow. Great work Marxian. I've already been impressed by your prior work, but this answers a question I didn't even know I had with an application that I pretty much needed.

Should be the same as the stock video player, since they use the same backend (GStreamer).

Is UPnP support something that would be possible to build into this?
