Title:
[qtubuntu-media] QMediaPlayer: only file:// URLs supported
Status in qtubuntu package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
QMediaPlayer accepts QUrl objects for the "setMedia" method, but the ubuntu
adapter to android MediaPlayer silently uses only the path component of that
URL, i.e. URLs like
http://192.168.178.29:8200/MediaItems/1750.mp3
are silently converted to
/MediaItems/1750.mp3
which is "no such file or directory" on the local device file system.
It's rather important for most music players to be able to stream
http:// URLs, like in this example to support DLNA/UPnP access.
There's a fix that requires both Qt and Android-MediaPlayer to
recognize the same string reprentations of URLs. It works for my
device and IMHO simplifies code. I'm not sure if it introduces any
resource leaks, ie. if there is a requirement to clean up somewhere..
Also I'm pretty sure that the call to QUrl::toString() should be
replaced with QUrl::toEncoded() in order to support non-ASCII
characters, but I don't feel like compiling qubuntu-media again on my
non-armhf machine to test it, since pbuilder-dist is rather slow when
doing that.
Nevertheless, I'm attaching my patches for libhybris and qtubuntu-
media. Please note that I've done the changes for libhybris in an
unversioned environment.. I *swear* I've branched those projects using
bzr when first setting up the Ubuntu Touch project, but somehow they
are just plain old files now. I noticed that too late, and tried to
port all my changes to an actual libhybris checkout, but I haven't
tested the resulting patch. I hope the intention of the patch is clear
though.
