+ \enum Phonon::State
+ \since 4.4
+
+ The state enum describes the different states a media object can
+ take. Several functions of \l{Phonon::}{MediaObject} are
+ asynchronous, so even if a you have requested a state change
+ through a function call, e.g., through
+ \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{play()}, you cannot be sure that the
+ change has taken place before you receive the
+ \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{stateChanged()} signal.
+
+ A media object can at any time change into any state, regardless
+ of the state it previously had. \omit In the
+ \l{Phonon::}{MediaObject} class description explains the typical
+ state changes in the life of a media object. \endomit
+
+ \value LoadingState
+ After construction it might take a while before the media object
+ is ready to \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{play()}. This state is
+ commonly used by backends to initialize the \l{Phonon
+ Overview}{media graph} and loading the source. When
+ the object leaves the loading state, it will enter the
+ StoppedState unless an error occurred or another state is
+ requested through a function call, e.g.,
+ \l{Phonon::}{MediaObject::play()}.
+
+ \value StoppedState
+ In the stopped state, the media object is ready to play its
+ current media source. The current
+ \l{MediaObject::seek()}{position} in the media stream is then 0.
+
+ \value PlayingState
+ The media object is playing back its media source.
+
+ \value BufferingState
+ The Player is waiting for data to be able to start or continue
+ playing. This state is commonly used to wait for media data over a
+ network connection.
+
+ \value PausedState
+ The media player has currently paused its playback, i.e., it
+ stops playing but keeps the current playback position in the
+ stream.
+
+ \value ErrorState
+ When a media object enters the error state a problem with the
+ playback has occurred. The possible errors are grouped into
+ two categories by Phonon::ErrorType, and the type can be
+ queried through \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{errorType()}. A
+ \l{Phonon::}{FatalError} implies that the playback
+ cannot continue, but one can still try with a new media
+ source. With a \l{Phonon::}{NormalError} it might
+ be possible to continue playback, and a media object may

+ \class Phonon::ObjectDescription
+ \inmodule Phonon

+ \since 4.4
+ \brief The ObjectDescription class provides information about Phonon objects.
+
+ Phonon currently uses this class to describe audio effects and
+ audio output devices - using the typedefs AudioOutputDevice and
+ EffectDescription. The type of an ObjectDescription is also
+ described through the \l{Phonon::}{ObjectDescriptionType} enum.
+ Objects of the same \l{Phonon::ObjectDescriptionType}{type} are
+ uniquely identified by an index().
+
+ The class gives a description() and a name() of the object, both
+ of which are strings appropriate for end users of a Phonon
+ application. You can also check whether the device or effect
+ described is \l{isValid()}{valid}. This does not guarantee that
+ the device or effect functions as expected, but that the
+ ObjectDescription describes an existing device or effect.
+
+ Audio output devices and effect descriptions are used to select
+ the audio output device to be used for playback and to create
+ effects; we show examples of this in the snippet below. The
+ available descriptions can be fetched with
+ \l{Phonon::BackendCapabilities::}{availableAudioOutputDevices()}
+ and \l{Phonon::BackendCapabilities::}{availableAudioEffects()}
+ static functions in the Phonon::BackendCapabilities namespace
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/phononobjectdescription.cpp 0

+ \omit Not implemented yet.
+ Need a new paragraph on that some descriptions 'belong
+ together', such as chained audio effects.
+
+ Some parts give the end user choices, e.g. what source to capture
+ audio from. These choices are described by the name and

+ method. Subclasses then define additional information like which

+
+ This class is subclassed to provide custom data streams for
+ \l{Phonon::}{MediaSource}s.
+
+ The \l{Phonon::}{MediaSource} knows how to handle the most common
+ media sources, such as files and CD. If you need to fetch
+ multimedia from other sources, you can reimplement this class,
+ which can be used by a \l{Phonon::}{MediaSource}.
+
+ When a backend needs more data from the stream, needData() will be
+ called. You must then use writeData() to write the data to the
+ backend. You can either write one time and wait for a new
+ needData() call, or continue to write data until you receive an
+ enoughData() call. When the stream is at its end, call endOfData()
+ instead of writeData().
+
+ Before the custom stream is passed to a \l{Phonon::}{MediaSource},
+ setStreamSize() needs to be called, and also setStreamSeekable()
+ (if the stream is seekable). A good place to do this work is in
+ the constructor. A seekable stream must also reimplement

+ \brief The MediaSource class provides multimedia data for media objects.
+
+ The MediaSource class manages a source of multimedia content, such
+ as a music or video file, of which data is given to a
+ \l{Phonon::}{MediaObject}.
+
+ The media source knows how fetch its data from several sources,
+ e.g., from files, a QIODevice, or a CD. The possible source types
+ are described by the \l{MediaSource::}{Type} enum. The type of the
+ source is set by the media source itself, and is dependent on the
+ constructor used to create it. Note that it is possible to provide
+ data from any source by implementing a QIODevice.
+
+ The class has several functions to acquire information about the
+ source it manages, e.g., fileName() and url(). The return from
+ these functions are dependent on the type() of the media source.
+
+ Normally, a programmer does not need to be concerned with media
+ sources. It's constructors are implicit, so one can, for instance,
+ send an URL or filename directly to the constructors of the
+ \l{Phonon::}{MediaObject}.
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_phonon-api.qdoc 3
+
+ A MediaSource object cannot be reused for another multimedia
+ source. It is possible to play the same source again, and also

+ stream, with the same MediaSource object.

+ \brief The MediaObject class provides an interface for media playback.
+
+
+ The media object manages a \l{Phonon::}{MediaSource}, which
+ supplies the media object with multimedia content, e.g., from a
+ file. A playback in Phonon is always started by calling the
+ \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{play()} function.
+
+ The state of play (play, pause, stop, seek) is controlled by the
+ media object, and you can also query the current
+ \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{state()}. It keeps track of the playback
+ position in the media stream, and emits the
+ \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{tick()} signal when the current position
+ in the stream changes.
+
+ Notice that most functions of this class are asynchronous, so you
+ cannot rely on that a state is entered after a function call
+ before you receive the \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{stateChanged()}
+ signal. The description of the \l{Phonon::}{State} enum gives a
+ description of the different states.
+
+ Before play() is called, the media object should be connected to
+ \l{Sinks}{output nodes}, which outputs the media to the
+ underlying hardware. The output nodes required are dependent on
+ the contents of the multimedia file that is played back. Phonon
+ has currently two output nodes: the \l{Phonon::}{AudioOutput} for
+ audio content and \l{Phonon::}{VideoWidget} for video content. If
+ a \l{Phonon::}{MediaSource} contains both audio and video, both
+ nodes need to be connected to the media object.
+
+ \snippet snippets/phonon.cpp 4
+ \snippet snippets/phonon.cpp 5
+
+ The media object can queue sources for playback. When it has
+ finished to play one source, it will start playing the next in the
+ queue; the new source is then removed from the queue. The
+ queue can be altered at any time.
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_phonon-api.qdoc 7
+
+ You can also make use of the
+ \l{Phonon::MediaObject::}{aboutToFinish()} signal, which is
+ guaranteed to be emitted in time for altering the queue.
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_phonon-api.qdoc 8
+
+ When playback is finishing, i.e., when a media source has been
+ played to the end and the queue is empty, several signals are
+ emitted. First, the media object will emit aboutToFinish() -
+ shortly before the playback has finished - and then finished().
+ The stateChanged() signal will also be emitted with
+ \l{Phonon::}{PausedState}, which is the state the media object
+ takes when the playback is finished. If you wish to enter another
+ state, you can connect a slot to finished() and set a new state
+ there.
+
+ The media object resolves the meta information, such as title,
+ artist, and album. The meta data is not resolved immediately after
+ a new source is provided, but will be resolved before the object
+ leaves the \l{Phonon::}{LoadingState}. The data is queried by
+ string keys - which should follow the Ogg Vorbis specification
+ \l http://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html - or by using the
+ \l{Phonon::}{MetaData} enum. The data available will depend on the
+ type and content of the individual media files. metaDataChanged()
+ will be emitted when the media object has resolved new meta data.
+
+ Errors encountered during playback and loading of media sources
+ are reported by emitting a state changed signal with
+ \l{Phonon::}{ErrorState}. The severity of the error can be queried
+ by the \l{Phonon::}{ErrorType}. With a \l{Phonon::}{NormalError},
+ it might be possible to continue the playback, for instance, if
+ only audio playback fails for a media source which also has video.
+ A \l{Phonon::}{FatalError} indicates that Phonon cannot continue
+ playback of the current source, but it is possible to try with a
+ different one. A user readable error message is given by
+ errorString().

+ \brief The MediaNode class is the base class for all nodes in a media graph.
+
+ In all phonon applications, one builds a media graph consisting of
+ MediaNodes. The graph will take multimedia content, e.g., from a
+ file, as input. After its nodes have processed the multimedia, the
+ graph will output the media again, e.g., to a sound card.
+
+ The multimedia content is streamed over \l{Phonon::}{Path}s
+ between the nodes in the graph. You can query the paths that are
+ connected to a media node with inputPaths() and outputPaths().
+
+ You can check whether the node is implemented by the current
+ backend by calling isValid(). This does not guarantee that an
+ instance of the class works as expected, but that the backend has
+ implemented functionality for the class.
+
+ Currently, Phonon has four media nodes: \l{Phonon::}{MediaObject},
+ \l{Phonon::}{AudioOutput}, \l{Phonon::}{VideoWidget}, and \l{Phonon::}{Effect}.
+ Please refer to their class descriptions for details about their usage, and to
+ find out which nodes can be connected to each other. See also \l{Building
+ Graphs} in Phonon's \l{Phonon Overview}{overview} document.
+
+ Two nodes are connected to each other using the
