Detailed Description

The QMediaPlayerControl class provides access to the media playing functionality of a QMediaService.

If a QMediaService can play media is will implement QMediaPlayerControl. This control provides a means to set the media to play, start, pause and stop playback, seek, and control the volume. It also provides feedback on the duration of the media, the current position, and buffering progress.

The functionality provided by this control is exposed to application code through the QMediaPlayer class.

The interface name of QMediaPlayerControl is com.nokia.Qt.QMediaPlayerControl/1.0 as defined in QMediaPlayerControl_iid.

See also QMediaService::requestControl() and QMediaPlayer.

void QMediaPlayerControl::audioAvailableChanged ( bool audio ) [signal]

Signals that there has been a change in the availability of audio output.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also isAudioAvailable().

QMediaTimeRange QMediaPlayerControl::availablePlaybackRanges () const [pure virtual]

Returns a range of times in milliseconds that can be played back.

Usually for local files this is a continuous interval equal to [0..duration()] or an empty time range if seeking is not supported, but for network sources it refers to the buffered parts of the media.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

void QMediaPlayerControl::availablePlaybackRangesChanged ( const QMediaTimeRange & ranges ) [signal]

Returns the duration of the current media in milliseconds.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

void QMediaPlayerControl::durationChanged ( qint64 duration ) [signal]

Signals that the duration of the current media has changed.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also duration().

void QMediaPlayerControl::error ( int error, const QString & errorString ) [signal]

Signals that an error has occurred. The errorString provides a more detailed explanation.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

bool QMediaPlayerControl::isAudioAvailable () const [pure virtual]

Identifies if there is audio output available for the current media.

Returns true if audio output is available and false otherwise.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

bool QMediaPlayerControl::isMuted () const [pure virtual]

Returns the mute state of a player control.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

bool QMediaPlayerControl::isSeekable () const [pure virtual]

Identifies if the current media is seekable.

Returns true if it possible to seek within the current media, and false otherwise.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

bool QMediaPlayerControl::isVideoAvailable () const [pure virtual]

Identifies if there is video output available for the current media.

Returns true if video output is available and false otherwise.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

QMediaContent QMediaPlayerControl::media () const [pure virtual]

Returns the current media source.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also setMedia().

void QMediaPlayerControl::mediaChanged ( const QMediaContent & content ) [signal]

Signals that the current media content has changed.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

QMediaPlayer::MediaStatus QMediaPlayerControl::mediaStatus () const [pure virtual]

Returns the status of the current media.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

void QMediaPlayerControl::mediaStatusChanged ( QMediaPlayer::MediaStatus status ) [signal]

Signals that the status of the current media has changed.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also mediaStatus().

const QIODevice * QMediaPlayerControl::mediaStream () const [pure virtual]

Returns the current media stream. This is only a valid if a stream was passed to setMedia().

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also setMedia().

void QMediaPlayerControl::mutedChanged ( bool mute ) [signal]

Signals a change in the mute status of a player control.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also isMuted().

void QMediaPlayerControl::pause () [pure virtual]

Pauses playback of the current media.

If sucessful the player control will immediately enter the paused state.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also state(), play(), and stop().

void QMediaPlayerControl::play () [pure virtual]

Starts playback of the current media.

If successful the player control will immediately enter the playing state.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also state().

qreal QMediaPlayerControl::playbackRate () const [pure virtual]

Returns the rate of playback.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also setPlaybackRate().

Signal emitted when playback rate changes to rate.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

qint64 QMediaPlayerControl::position () const [pure virtual]

Signals that the seekable state of a player control has changed.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also isSeekable().

void QMediaPlayerControl::setMedia ( const QMediaContent & media, QIODevice * stream ) [pure virtual]

Sets the current media source. If a stream is supplied; data will be read from that instead of attempting to resolve the media source. The media source may still be used to supply media information such as mime type.

Setting the media to a null QMediaContent will cause the control to discard all information relating to the current media source and to cease all I/O operations related to that media.

This function was introduced in Qt Mobility 1.0.

See also media().
