Created attachment 88675 [details] Bash log Qt: 4.8.6 KDE Development Platform: 4.14.0 digiKam: 4.2.0 system: 3.16.2-1-ARCH x86_64 with gnome-session 3.12.1 Application crashes directly after starting it. The loading screen pops up for half a second, then the KDE Crash Handler shows up. There is no Developer Information in the Crash Handler, only this line in Details: "Executable: digikam PID: 10526 Signal: Segmentation fault (11) Time: 12.09.2014 11:31:57" For Bash-log see Attachements.
Installing phonon-qt5-vlc from the arch repository fixed the problem. https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/phonon-qt5-vlc/ phonon-qt5 was already installed.
I'm also getting a seg fault when opening Digikam but installing phonon-qt5 and phonon-qt5-vlc doesn't fix the problem. digikam --database-directory /run/media/alpha/PHOTOS-DISK/PHOTOS/Digikam/ Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceAdded(QString) Object::connect: No such signal org::freedesktop::UPower::DeviceRemoved(QString) QSqlDatabasePrivate::removeDatabase: connection 'ConnectionTest' is still in use, all queries will cease to work.

digiKam 5.4.0 bundles will use QtAV framework instead Qt5Multimedia to thumb and play video/audio. The Slideshow tool will also support video as well. QtAV use ffmpeg codecs. It's multi-platform and will always available in OSX, Windows and Linux bundles that digiKam team provide. For Linux packagers, you will need to turn on video support at compilation time and solve QtAV dependencies...
