\section1 Multimedia and Phonon Support
- Qt provides a backend for Qt's Phonon module, which supports
- video and sound playback through Symbian's Multimedia Framework, MMF.
+ Qt provides a high-level API for multimedia functionality with
+ (\l{http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtmobility/multimedia.html}).
- In this release the support is experimental. Video playback may have
- flickering issues, and support for effects and playback queueing is
- incomplete.
+ Qt also provides a backend for Qt's Phonon module, which supports video and
+ sound playback through Symbian's Multimedia Framework, MMF. Note that Phonon
+ support is not being extended, and that Qt's multimedia module will
+ take over for Phonon at a later stage.
+
+ In this release the support is experimental. Video playback may show
+ artifacts when the video is moved or resized (for instance during
+ orientation flips). This problem is present on Symbian^1 and earlier
+ versions, and on Symbian^3 systems.
The audio and video formats that Phonon supports depends on what support
the platform provides for MMF. The emulator is known to have limited
codec support.
- In addition, there exists a backend for the Helix framework. However, due
- to it not shipping with Qt, its availability depends on the Symbian
- platform in use. If available, it is loaded in preference over the MMF
- plugin. If the Helix plugin fails to load, the MMF plugin, if present on
- the device, will be loaded instead.
