KDE4 does not support phonon-4.1 (qt4-phonon port). It requires phonon-4.2 (phonon port). phonon-4.1 works very well, so well in fact that I am using the MediaPlayer demo that comes with Qt4 as my main video player! But I have been unable to get phonon-4.2. to work. I built the MediaPlayer with phonon-4.2, but it doesn't work. I would file a bug with KDE (bugs.kde.org). They are maintaining phonon. p.s. Please file any bugs you find with KDE directly. I have logged several this weekend, and plan to log several more. They can't fix them if they don't know about them. -- David Johnson _______________________________________________ kde-freebsd mailing list kde-freebsd@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-freebsd
