This problem must be fixed with the current 8.4.0 pre-release PKG available here : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Gilles Caulier No this is not fixed. The audio is working with that package but still no image is displayed. Same error in the logs : FFmpeg: [h264 @ 0x7fcd7c053400] hardware accelerator failed to decode picture In help / Components Info dialog did you see the h264 codec in ffmpeg features ? Here on my MacBook Pro M1, an H264 video file play perfectly : https://i.imgur.com/TVksqA5.png Please share a video file sample to try to reproduce the problem. Gilles Caulier @Gilles, according to the FFmpeg bug report from Description, the problem does not occur with every H264 video on an M1 Mac. There is also a 1 second sample video in the bug report. Maik Created attachment 169515 [details] sample file from ffmpeg bug report Indeed it does not happen to every h264 video. I have checked h264 codec feature in ffmpeg and it is listed same as in your screenshot. I have also tested different files: * video converted to h264 using handbrake : plays correctly. * video recorded with codec h264 directly on the camera in fullhd settings : plays correctly * video recorded with codec h264 directly on the camera in 4K settings : doesn't play and error about hardware decoding in the logs. I should add that the same files that now cause issues (4K h264 from the camera) where fine in previous versions of digikam (i may have missed a few updates but quite sure 8.0.0 was ok). Have been using the same camera settings for a few years now without issues in digikam. I cannot had my sample here (4K gets too large for file size limit); but here is a temporary link : https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/dc09bb95-1ad9-443d-bf2f-670a99683267 I can also confirm that the sample from ffmpeg bug report does indeed not play in digikam and show the same error in logs Git commit 57536d9f6188f0370d120dd84605a41549651a7b by Gilles Caulier.

Gilles Yes, it's about the QMultimedia Player. It is now possible to select "Darwin" as video backend (restart digiKam) to compare whether H264 videos can be played better with the macOs backend or with FFmpeg. Unfortunately, this does not include the video thumbnailer. Maik Maik, I cannot test the playback with this file as digiKam crash while thumb generation... Gilles Maik, I prepared a new compilation of qt6-qtmultimedia with ffmpeg6. I patched the ports configuration files for that. Until now all compile fine and very quickly. QtWebEngine which depends of QtMultimedia have been recompiled in 30 mns. Silicon architecture is very impressive, without to hear the CPU Fan. I don't know how Apple deal with the chips temperature. By comparison, the Intel Macbook pro take age and very noisy. So i will be able to check if the libav crash is fixed and if the mp4 playback work as expected. Gilles Hi Maik, With the ffmpeg6, video thumbnail work fine : https://i.imgur.com/NnX77vb.png But playback with ffmpeg backend do not work : https://i.imgur.com/y4ZW4xX.png No more chance with the system codec : https://i.imgur.com/A6vUX3B.png VLC on the same system play properly : https://i.imgur.com/e83LbLF.png Gilles Maik, My h264 video taken with an iphone play well with both digiKam backends : https://i.imgur.com/Qta3H1Z.png Gilles digiKam terminal trace when tring to play the defect h264 with ffmpeg :

Correction: with ffmpeg codec, the player try to start but do not play without error. https://i.imgur.com/6QrjYTC.png My previous screenshot with ffmpeg was wrong, as you need to restart digiKam when codec is changed in setup/misc. This explain the terminal difference between both codecs. Gilles The video is playing under Linux, which FFmpeg version are you using exactly? It would be best to take a screenshot of the component window. Make QtMultimedia more talkative with this debug rule (the digiKam internal one must be deactivated in the setup). export QT_LOGGING_RULES=qt.multimedia.ffmpeg*=true Maik It's ffmpeg 6.1.1 : https://ports.macports.org/port/ffmpeg6/ Maik, It's clear. QtMultimedia do not compile fine with ffmpeg : No QtMultimedia backends found. Only QMediaDevices, QAudioDevice, QSoundEffect, QAudioSink, and QAudioSource are available. Failed to create QVideoSink "Not available" Failed to initialize QMediaPlayer "Not available" Gilles Maik, If i switch to Darwing codec the message do not appears on the terminal and video play back work fine, with my own h264 video files. Gilles Git commit 90ee89c42deed9faa320ecd08839150e4496187c by Gilles Caulier. Committed on 16/09/2024 at 12:17. Pushed by cgilles into branch 'master'. Move ffmpeg6 for libexec to macports prefix, else qt6multimedia do not handle it properly.

With ffmpeg 6 + Qt6Multimedia properly assembled, it's works on my Macbook M1... https://i.imgur.com/1O5LCa6.png PKG 8.5.0 pre-release from today : digiKam-8.5.0-20240916T131337-Qt6-MacOS-arm64.pkg https://files.kde.org/digikam/ I can close this file now. Gilles Caulier I can confirm that it is working on my files too after switching decoding backend to Darwin. Maybe it can be make default for apple silicon ? |
