Could you maybe try also with the phonon-backend-vlc? Also please specify which versions of Phonon, phonon-backend-gstreamer and phonon-backend-vlc you use.

I dont get it.
For now it works.
there is one issue only. When it plays video if I change tab for "lyrics" I still have video at the bottom, that I cant see lyrics :(
and if I play a mp3 I still have black window were Used to be video eariler.
And now after restart, I got the preview for wideo, but it is:
