[Qt-interest] phonon, gstreamer and gapless video playback

[Jason H]

Have you tried loading the next media in a secondary instance so that all of the 
setup on open stuff happens before you start playback? Not in Qt, but using 
Media Player on Windows I had to have two instances and switch between them for 
gapless playback, particularly for more modern file formats.
Like, say use a widget stack and change the current index.

Hi All,

I have a very annoying trouble with MediaObjects and QT/Phonon.

I have a gentoo OS, and I'm using qt-phonon with gstreamer backend, 
I have alredy installed lastest version of these softwares, 
including qt-phonon 4.7.1 and GStreamer Core 0.10.32, Base Plugins
0.10.32, Good Plugins 0.10.27, Ugly Plugins 0.10.17, Bad Plugins 0.10.21

The problem is that using QT/Phonon MediaObjects in my QT Projects, in
the video playback I have a very small black gap beetween videos, and
this is very a annoying problem for me. 

It's something about the VideoWidget impelementation in
QT-Phonon/Gstreamer?

I read something about playbin2 component on gstreamer that seems to
resolve this problem. Is this component the default option for
phonon-gstreamer?

Best Regards
