Bug 487121

Were was this build installed from?
The package is missing basic dependencies.

Apparently audiotube only works with the gstreamer qtmultimedia backend, which is not documented anywhere.

Through `pacman`, sorry if that's too vague, i am still a bit new to linux
I've tried running `pacman -Syu audiotube`(full sys update) to no avail

That's fixed it, Thank you plenty.

Where would be a place to document this where you would find it during packaging?
Checking for the backend with cmake is probably non-trivial unfortunately.

I can put it into the README, however that's probably also rarely read.

qtmultimedia backends provide cmake targets, so something like

if (NOT TARGET Qt6::QGstreamerMediaPlugin)
  message (FATAL_ERROR "QtMultimedia gstreamer backend not found")
endif ()

Not sure if it is related to the same bug, as the package “qt6-multimedia-gstreamer” is installed on my machine, but the playback does not always work. In most cases, the player sits idle at “0:00” and does not progress.
Clearing the cache and reinstalling the audiotube package did not solve the issue.
