Detailed Description

Interface for media playback of a given URL.

This class is the most important class in Phonon. Use it to open a media file at an arbitrary location, a CD or DVD or to stream media data from the application to the backend.

This class controls the state (play, pause, stop, seek) and you can use it to get a lot of information about the media data.

Notice that most functions of this class are asynchronous. That means if you call play() the object only starts playing when the stateChanged() signal tells you that the object changed into PlayingState. The states you can expect are documented for those methods.

A common usage example is the following:

media = new MediaObject(this);
connect(media, SIGNAL(finished()), SLOT(slotFinished());
media->setCurrentSource("/home/username/music/filename.ogg");
media->play();
Interface for media playback of a given URL.
Definition mediaobject.h:94
void finished()
Emitted when the object has finished playback.
QMetaObject::Connection connect(const QObject *sender, const char *signal, const QObject *receiver, const char *method, Qt::ConnectionType type)
T qobject_cast(QObject *object)

If you want to play more than one media file (one after another) you can either tell MediaObject about all those files

media->setCurrentSource(":/sounds/startsound.ogg");
media->enqueue("/home/username/music/song.mp3");
media->enqueue(":/sounds/endsound.ogg");

or provide the next file just in time:

media->setCurrentSource(":/sounds/startsound.ogg");
}
{
media->enqueue("/home/username/music/song.mp3");
}
void aboutToFinish()
Emitted before the playback of the whole queue stops.

This integration is opt-in only and can be enabled by setting the PlaybackTracking property to true:

media->setProperty("PlaybackTracking", true);

This kind of information is normally used to provide a universal history view to the user, such as what songs were played when, regardless of the media player. This is in addition to any emails read, IM conversations, websites viewed, etc.

Property Documentation

◆ prefinishMark

qint32 Phonon::MediaObject::prefinishMark
readwrite

Get a signal before playback finishes.

This property specifies the time in milliseconds the prefinishMarkReached signal is emitted before the playback finishes. A value of 0 disables the signal.

Defaults to 0 (disabled).

Warning
For some media data the total time cannot be determined accurately, therefore the accuracy of the prefinishMarkReached signal can be bad sometimes. Still, it is better to use this method than to look at totalTime() and currentTime() to emulate the behaviour because the backend might have more information available than your application does through totalTime and currentTime.
See also
prefinishMarkReached

Definition at line 136 of file mediaobject.h.

◆ tickInterval

qint32 Phonon::MediaObject::tickInterval
readwrite

The time interval in milliseconds between two ticks.

The tick interval is the time that elapses between the emission of two tick signals. If you set the interval to 0 the tick signal gets disabled.

Defaults to 0 (disabled).

Warning
The back-end is free to choose a different tick interval close to what you asked for. This means that the following code may fail:
int x = 200;
media->setTickInterval(x);
Q_ASSERT(x == producer->tickInterval());
On the other hand the following is guaranteed:
int x = 200;
media->setTickInterval(x);
Q_ASSERT(x >= producer->tickInterval() &&
qint32 tickInterval
The time interval in milliseconds between two ticks.
See also
tick

Definition at line 163 of file mediaobject.h.

◆ transitionTime

qint32 Phonon::MediaObject::transitionTime
readwrite

Defines the time between media sources.

A positive transition time defines a gap of silence between queued media sources.

A transition time of 0 ms requests gapless playback (sample precise queueing of the next source).

A negative transition time defines a crossfade between the queued media sources.

Defaults to 0 (gapless playback).

Warning
This feature might not work reliably on every platform.

Definition at line 115 of file mediaobject.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ~MediaObject()

PHONON_OBJECT_IMPL Phonon::MediaObject::~MediaObject ( )
override

Destroys the MediaObject.

Definition at line 51 of file mediaobject.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ aboutToFinish

void Phonon::MediaObject::aboutToFinish ( )
signal

Emitted before the playback of the whole queue stops.

When this signal is emitted you still have time to provide the next MediaSource (using enqueue()) so that playback continues.

This signal can be used to provide the next MediaSource just in time for the transition still to work.

See also
enqueue

◆ bufferStatus

void Phonon::MediaObject::bufferStatus ( int percentFilled)
signal

Tells about the status of the buffer.

You can use this signal to show a progress bar to the user when in BufferingState:

progressBar->setRange(0, 100); // this is the default
connect(media, SIGNAL(bufferStatus(int)), progressBar, SLOT(setValue(int)));
void bufferStatus(int percentFilled)
Tells about the status of the buffer.
Parameters
percentFilledA number between 0 and 100 telling you how much the buffer is filled.

◆ clear

void Phonon::MediaObject::clear ( )
slot

Stops and removes all playing and enqueued media sources.

See also
setCurrentSource

Definition at line 257 of file mediaobject.cpp.

See also
currentSourceChanged
aboutToFinish
prefinishMarkReached

◆ hasVideo()

bool Phonon::MediaObject::hasVideo ( ) const

Check whether the media data includes a video stream.

Warning
This information cannot be known immediately. It is best to also listen to the hasVideoChanged signal.
media->setCurrentSource("somevideo.avi");
media->hasVideo(); // returns false;
}
void hasVideoChanged(bool b)
{
// b == true
media->hasVideo(); // returns true;
}
void hasVideoChanged(bool hasVideo)
Emitted whenever the return value of hasVideo() changes.
Returns
true if the media contains video data. false otherwise.
See also
hasVideoChanged

◆ hasVideoChanged

void Phonon::MediaObject::hasVideoChanged ( bool hasVideo)
signal

Emitted whenever the return value of hasVideo() changes.

Normally you'll check hasVideo() first and then let this signal tell you whether video is available now or not. That way you don't have to poll hasVideo().

Parameters
hasVideotrue The stream contains video and adding a VideoWidget will show a video. false There is no video data in the stream and adding a VideoWidget will show an empty (black) VideoWidget.

◆ isPortValid()

bool Phonon::MediaObject::isPortValid ( const Port & p)
inline

Definition at line 76 of file Phonon-Graph.cpp.

◆ isSeekable()

bool Phonon::MediaObject::isSeekable ( ) const

Check whether the current media may be seeked.

Warning
This information cannot be known immediately. It is best to also listen to the seekableChanged signal.
media->setCurrentSource("somevideo.avi");
media->isSeekable(); // returns false;
}
void seekableChanged(bool b)
{
// b == true
media->isSeekable(); // returns true;
}
void seekableChanged(bool isSeekable)
Emitted whenever the return value of isSeekable() changes.
Returns
true when the current media may be seeked. false otherwise.
See also
seekableChanged()

◆ metaData() [1/3]

QMultiMap< QString, QString > Phonon::MediaObject::metaData ( ) const

Returns all meta data.

Definition at line 189 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ metaData() [2/3]

QStringList Phonon::MediaObject::metaData ( const QString & key) const

Returns the strings associated with the given key.

Backends should use the keys specified in the Ogg Vorbis documentation: http://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/v-comment.html

Therefore the following should work with every backend:

A typical usage looks like this:

setMetaArtist (media->metaData("ARTIST" ));
setMetaAlbum (media->metaData("ALBUM" ));
setMetaTitle (media->metaData("TITLE" ));
setMetaDate (media->metaData("DATE" ));
setMetaGenre (media->metaData("GENRE" ));
setMetaTrack (media->metaData("TRACKNUMBER"));
setMetaComment(media->metaData("DESCRIPTION"));

For Audio CDs you can query

metaData("MUSICBRAINZ_DISCID");
QMultiMap< QString, QString > metaData() const
Returns all meta data.

to get a DiscID hash that you can use with the MusicBrainz service: http://musicbrainz.org/doc/ClientHOWTO

Definition at line 183 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ metaData() [3/3]

QStringList Phonon::MediaObject::metaData ( Phonon::MetaData key) const

Returns the strings associated with the given key.

Same as above except that the keys are defined in the Phonon::MetaData enum.

Definition at line 160 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ metaDataChanged

void Phonon::MediaObject::metaDataChanged ( )
signal

This signal is emitted whenever the audio/video data that is being played is associated with new meta data.

E.g. for radio streams this happens when the next song is played.

You can get the new meta data with the metaData methods.

◆ openPort()

Port Phonon::MediaObject::openPort ( MediaStreamType type,
const char * format = 0 )
inline

Definition at line 67 of file Phonon-Graph.cpp.

◆ pause

void Phonon::MediaObject::pause ( )
slot

Requests playback to pause.

If it was paused before nothing changes. If the media cannot be paused, some backends will internally call stop instead of pause.

Possible states right after this call:
  • PlayingState
  • PausedState
  • StoppedState
  • ErrorState

Definition at line 108 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ play

void Phonon::MediaObject::play ( )
slot

Requests playback of the media data to start.

Playback only starts when stateChanged() signals that it goes into PlayingState, though.

Possible states right after this call:
  • BufferingState
  • PlayingState
  • ErrorState

Definition at line 100 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ prefinishMarkReached

void Phonon::MediaObject::prefinishMarkReached ( qint32 msecToEnd)
signal

Emitted when there are only msecToEnd milliseconds left for playback.

Parameters
msecToEndThe remaining time until the playback queue finishes.
Warning
This signal is not emitted when there is another source in the queue. It is only emitted when the queue is empty.
See also
setPrefinishMark
prefinishMark
aboutToFinish
finished

◆ queue()

QList< MediaSource > Phonon::MediaObject::queue ( ) const

Returns the queued media sources.

This list does not include the current source (returned by currentSource).

Definition at line 264 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ remainingTime()

qint64 Phonon::MediaObject::remainingTime ( ) const

Get the remaining time (in milliseconds) of the file currently being played.

Returns
The remaining time in milliseconds.

Definition at line 210 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ seek

void Phonon::MediaObject::seek ( qint64 time)
slot

Requests a seek to the time indicated.

You can only seek if state() == PlayingState, BufferingState or PausedState.

The call is asynchronous, so currentTime can still be the old value right after this method was called. If all you need is a slider that shows the current position and allows the user to seek use the class SeekSlider.

Parameters
timeThe time in milliseconds where to continue playing.
Possible states right after this call:
  • BufferingState
  • PlayingState
  • ErrorState
See also
SeekSlider

Definition at line 124 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ seekableChanged

void Phonon::MediaObject::seekableChanged ( bool isSeekable)
signal

Emitted whenever the return value of isSeekable() changes.

Normally you'll check isSeekable() first and then let this signal tell you whether seeking is possible now or not. That way you don't have to poll isSeekable().

Parameters
isSeekabletrue if the stream is seekable (i.e. calling seek() works) false if the stream is not seekable (i.e. all calls to seek() will be ignored)

◆ selectSubstream()

bool Phonon::MediaObject::selectSubstream ( SubStreamDescription ,
const Port & port = Port() )
inline

Definition at line 57 of file Phonon-Graph.cpp.

◆ setCurrentSource()

void Phonon::MediaObject::setCurrentSource ( const MediaSource & source)

Set the media source the MediaObject should use.

Parameters
sourceThe MediaSource object to the media data. You can just as well use a QUrl or QString (for a local file) here. Setting an empty (invalid) source, will stop and remove the current source.
QUrl url("http://www.example.com/music.ogg");
media->setCurrentSource(url);
See also
currentSource

Definition at line 229 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ setQueue() [1/2]

void Phonon::MediaObject::setQueue ( const QList< MediaSource > & sources)

Set the MediaSources to play when the current media has finished.

This function will overwrite the current queue.

See also
clearQueue
enqueue

Definition at line 270 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ setQueue() [2/2]

void Phonon::MediaObject::setQueue ( const QList< QUrl > & urls)

Set the MediaSources to play when the current media has finished.

This function overwrites the current queue.

Definition at line 277 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ setTickInterval

void Phonon::MediaObject::setTickInterval ( qint32 newTickInterval)
slot

Sets the tick interval in milliseconds.

Parameters
newTickIntervalthe new tick interval in milliseconds.
See also
tickInterval

◆ state()

Phonon::State Phonon::MediaObject::state ( ) const

Get the current state.

Returns
The state of the object.
See also
State
stateChanged

Definition at line 69 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ stateChanged

void Phonon::MediaObject::stateChanged ( Phonon::State newstate,
Phonon::State oldstate )
signal

Emitted when the state of the MediaObject has changed.

Parameters
newstateThe state the Player is in now.
oldstateThe state the Player was in before.

◆ stop

void Phonon::MediaObject::stop ( )
slot

Requests playback to stop.

If it was stopped before nothing changes.

Possible states right after this call:
  • the state it was in before (e.g. PlayingState)
  • StoppedState
  • ErrorState

Definition at line 116 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ tick

void Phonon::MediaObject::tick ( qint64 time)
signal

This signal gets emitted every tickInterval milliseconds.

Parameters
timeThe position of the media file in milliseconds.
See also
setTickInterval, tickInterval

◆ tickInterval()

qint32 Phonon::MediaObject::tickInterval ( ) const

The time interval in milliseconds between two ticks.

The tick interval is the time that elapses between the emission of two tick signals.

Returns
the tick interval in milliseconds

◆ totalTime()

qint64 Phonon::MediaObject::totalTime ( ) const

Get the total time (in milliseconds) of the file currently being played.

Returns
The total time in milliseconds.
Note
The total time may change throughout playback as more accurate calculations become available, so it is recommended to connect and use the totalTimeChanged signal whenever possible unless best precision is not of importance.
Warning
The total time is undefined until the MediaObject entered the PlayingState. A valid total time is always indicated by emission of the totalTimeChanged signal.
See also
totalTimeChanged

Definition at line 201 of file mediaobject.cpp.

◆ totalTimeChanged

void Phonon::MediaObject::totalTimeChanged ( qint64 newTotalTime)
signal

This signal is emitted as soon as the total time of the media file is known or has changed.

For most non-local media data the total time of the media can only be known after some time. Initially the totalTime function can not return useful information. You have to wait for this signal to know the real total time.

This signal may appear at any given point after a MediaSource was set. Namely in the LoadingState, BufferingState, PlayingState or PausedState.

Note
When changing the currentSource there is no signal emission until a reasonable value for the new source has been calculated.
Parameters
newTotalTimeThe length of the media file in milliseconds.
