Hi :)
I installed DirexX end user runtime. First there was an error during install, then i tried with admin right and the installation worked. 

But it didn't resolved the issue :(

Sorry for the question: you have reboot the Windows session?

Maik

No i hadn't, but i have now : same issue :(

Maybe it can help : i'm using spdif only from my PC to my amplifier, but it works with all my others applications.

When you download from http://www.qtav.org/ the QtAV-Player for Windows. Do you have sound with this player?

Maik

Maik,

Warning, the QtAV official player must be compiled with MSVC and, if i remember the QtAV code, the Windows deployment use ffmpeg pre-compiled dll. So it will be difficult to compare directly with digiKam embedded QtAV.

I think it is a codec issue. Here is the output of the terminal:
AudioDecoder::id("FFmpeg")
Unknown id Unknown id

I just installed the latest QtAV 1.11 bundle on my desktop. There is sound if I open a file in an external QtAV player but there is no sound if I preview the same file in digiKam. Mint KDE 18.1. Latest digikam 5.5 appimage

The problem in the AppImage is that no audio backends is found (e.g. Pulse).

digikam.general: AudioOutput backends: ("null")

Maik

Hi :)

Do you have any news about this bug ?

Could i go back to 5.3.0 without losing anything (waiting a fix) ?

Thanks
Bruno

yes you can go back to 5.3.0 safety.
your problem is reproducible here. We will investiguate

Gilles Caulier

I have no sound on Linux either...

yes, no sound with AppImage, but in native Linux, yes, sound is here.

Gilles Caulier

Hi,

Thanks you for being trying to resolve the bug.

IF i can help to test anything you can ask me (but i'm not a develloper ;) )

Have a nice day

*** Bug 376952 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Gilles,

No audio backends are found from QtAV in the AppImage. Do you need to install sound support in CentOS?

Maik

Perhaps...

I will look what's QtAV give at configuration time.

Gilles

If somebody can test and report if video with audio is played fine under Windows of course...

Hi,

I tried but the bug isn't resolved :( , no sound with all my videos.

I try to fix the problem using current QtAv implementation in digiKam Windows installer. I just recompiled quickly the 32 bits bundle for testing.

Please test and give me a feedback. File is at usual place :

Gilles Caulier

The video sound playback under Linux is now fixed with AppImage. Look this report for details :

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=376952

The same fix have been applied to Windows installer. I need a feedback please to validate this solution under Windows. The 5.5.0 Windows installer 32 and 64 bits is now up to date in usual GDrive repository :

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzeiVr-byqt5Y0tIRWVWelRJenM

Thanks in advance for your feedback

Gilles Caulier

Hi,

Yes it works :) Thanks a lot :)

I tried with 64 bits installer only.

I lost my toolbar customisation, is it normal ?

From main menu, go to Settings/Configure Toolbar

I mean : is there a way to restore all my previous customisation automatically ? or do i have to do it manually ?

Restore ? Why you delete all previous customization ?

(In reply to caulier.gilles from comment #31)
> Restore ? Why you delete all previous customization ?

Gilles, the way I understand Op, the installation of the new version has overridden his configuration.

Impossible. The configuration, under Linux, Windows, or MacOS is recorded in home directory to a hidden folder.

But i remember that i renamed the ui rc XML files to prevent crash with previous version (typically something goes wrong with KF5 libraries which generate XML files).

So, yes, please reconfigure your toolbar.

Gilles Caulier

"Restore ? Why you delete all previous customization ?"

I didn't deleted anything : when i install Digikam 5.5 i lose my customization. When i go back to 5.4.0 or 5.3.0 i retreive it.

"So, yes, please reconfigure your toolbar"

Ok.

Bye
