[Qt-creator] Video implementation in qt

[daniel.molkentin at nokia.com]

Hi Pratik,

first of all, for such things it's probably better to consult the Qt  
Interest mailing list (see lists.trolltech.com), since this lists  
focusses on Qt Creator development. The SDK is so far not compiled  
with Phonon support. Phonon is the Multimedia abstraction layer which  
uses the operating systems native backend.

For Linux, there are two backends: GStreamer and Xine. So far, it has  
been problematic to ship a Qt with Phonon enabled on linux, due to  
binary compatibility issues. So for now you will have to recompile Qt  
yourself (and have the gstreamer or xine development libraries  
installed) to get multimedia working. With the upcoming Qt SDK  
however, we will attempt to ship a backend for gstreamer. This should  
work on most distributions, but may fail due to binary compatiblity  
issues in some cases.

Cheers,
   Daniel
