Description Piotr 2015-06-09 16:17:16 UTC
Pressing F9 on album starts slide show. If the slideshow reaches video files it displays this on blank, black page:
An error has occured to show item 
....file_name

It dos not matter which video file format to play. Just the same occurs for mts, avi files.

digikam previews the video files just fine.

Reproducible: Always

digiKam 5.4.0 will add video support in Slideshow, through QtAV framework (instead Qt5::Multimedia).
