QtWebkit doesn’t support HTML5 audio?
Hello,
I’m developing a QtWebkit application. First, I was compiling using Mingw but
I had to migrate to Qt VS version.
When I debugged the Mingw compiled app, it loaded phonon backend dlls, now that
I’m compiling using the VS compiler, I don’t see any phonon backends dlls being loaded.
and when I open up this site:
http://forestmist.org/2010/04/html5-audio-loops/
Using the QtWebkit app, the audio players doesn’t even show up.
Could it be that my Qt VS compilation (that I downloaded from the Qt downloads site) was
built without phonon?
Has anyone been able to enable HTML5 audio at all?
Thanks for your help,
Sergio

WebKit does, but for some reason it doesn’t work on windows, maybe on the next update
Qt WebKit doesn’t support audio tags. I tried w3 audio example in qwebview widget, and the output is: “ Your browser does not support the audio element.”
Thank you guys for your replies.
It’s really a bummer that such basic HTML5 functionality is not supported in some cases.
