You can use QLibrary to load/unload libraries (basically a wrapper around dlopen and friends). I have no idea what will happen if you still hold objects created by those libraries in memory though (since i guess you'll need that for PMC), my guess would be crashing :-/ I would suggest helping with the port of QtMultimediaKit to gestreamer-1.0, i know that doesn't immediately help your users though :-/ Cheers, Albert > > Help appreciated, so that our users can play their audio and video again ;) > > Cheers, > [1] > http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer/tree/docs/random/porting-to-> 1.0.txtsection "Troubleshooting" > [2] http://i.imgur.com/0k1TTwW.png >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
