I looked at the QtGstreamer git recently and there is still work going on, but the focus seemed to be on splitting out QtGlib and the Qt5 port. It looks like that should be a release with those changes ready soon. I assume the gstreamer 1 port well be next, although I think some work in that area

Only phonon-gstreamer support replaygain for mp3/ogg/flac files... So removing phonon-gstreamer will break applications like Amarok. I think phonon-vlc needs some more love before being Phonon default backend. regards, Le mercredi 25 septembre 2013 12:35:25 Harald Sitter a écrit : In the
