defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer"


I'm building my Qt app into an AppImage on Ubuntu-22.04. It builds without errors and the app works. But the problem is that it's supposed to display a video, and it doesn't. The initial version of the app successfully displays the video, but the new version does not. However, the video works correctly when I run the app from Qt Creator in Debug mode. The error message is:"defaultServiceProvider::requestService(): no service found for - "org.qt-project.qt.mediaplayer"".

I know there are multiple topics about this error across the forums, but i tried everything. I installed all the libs that were recommended:

I even installed Qt with qtmultimedia with aqt:

aqt install-qt --outputdir ./Qt linux desktop 5.15.2 --archives qtmultimedia

If someone could provide me with instructions for resolving this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.


Solution

  • UPDATE: I just had to add the Qt mediaservice folder with its plugins into my build's plugins directory and it worked.
