Detailed Description

QMediaPlaylist is intended to be used with other media objects, like QMediaPlayer. QMediaPlaylist allows to access the service intrinsic playlist functionality if available, otherwise it provides the local memory playlist implementation.

Depending on playlist source implementation, most of the playlist mutating operations can be asynchronous.

playlist = new QMediaPlaylist;
playlist->addMedia(QUrl("http://example.com/movie1.mp4"));
playlist->addMedia(QUrl("http://example.com/movie2.mp4"));
playlist->addMedia(QUrl("http://example.com/movie3.mp4"));
playlist->setCurrentIndex(1);
player = new QMediaPlayer;
player->setPlaylist(playlist);
videoWidget = new QVideoWidget;
player->setVideoOutput(videoWidget);
videoWidget->show();
player->play();

Member Enumeration Documentation

This enum describes the QMediaPlaylist error codes.

ConstantValueDescription
QMediaPlaylist::NoError 0 No errors
QMediaPlaylist::FormatError 1 Format error
QMediaPlaylist::FormatNotSupportedError 2 Format not supported
QMediaPlaylist::NetworkError 3 Network Error
QMediaPlaylist::AccessDeniedError 4 Access Denied Error

The QMediaPlaylist::PlaybackMode describes the order items in playlist are played.

ConstantValueDescription
QMediaPlaylist::CurrentItemOnce 0 Current item is played only once
QMediaPlaylist::CurrentItemInLoop 1 current item is in a loop
QMediaPlaylist::Sequential 2 Playback starts from the current and moves through each successive item until the last is reached and then stops. The next item is a null item when the last one is currently playing.
QMediaPlaylist::Loop 3 Playback restarts at the first item after the last has finished playing
QMediaPlaylist::Random 4 Play items in random order

QMediaPlaylist::Error QMediaPlaylist::error ( ) const

Returns the last error condition.

QString QMediaPlaylist::errorString ( ) const

Returns the string describing the last error condition.

bool QMediaPlaylist::insertMedia ( int  index,
const QList< QMediaContent > &  items 
)

Insert multiple media content items to the playlist at the given index. Returns true if the operation is successful, otherwise returns false.

bool QMediaPlaylist::insertMedia ( int  index,
const QMediaContent content 
)

void QMediaPlaylist::load ( const QNetworkRequest request,
const char *  format = nullptr 
)

Load a playlist using the given request. If the format is specified then it will be used, otherwise the file format is deduced from the contents of the response.

void QMediaPlaylist::load ( QIODevice device,
const char *  format = nullptr 
)

Load a playlist from the given device. If the format is specified then it will be used, otherwise the file format is deduced from the contents of the file.
