It's easy to include QtAV in your project. Because it's pro file are well designed. For more information about the pro file i use, see my another project: https://github.com/wang-bin/LibProjWizard4QtCreator

You can see examples in QtAV to know how to use QtAV, or follow the steps below

Steps

  1. Create a subdirs type project in directory myproject
    myproject/myplayer.pro
    TEMPLATE = subdirs
    SUBDIRS += libQtAV myplayer
    myplayer.depends += libQtAV
    libQtAV.file = QtAV/src/libQtAV.pro
  2. Clone/Put QtAV to myproject
    the directory now is

myproject/myplayer/myplayer.pro
myproject/QtAV/src/libQtAV.pro
myproject/QtAV/src/libQtAV.pri

  1. Add libQtAV.pri in you project
    in myproject/myplayer.pro, add
    include(../QtAV/src/libQtAV.pri)

  2. generate Makefile
    qmake -r BUILD_DIR=some_dir
    YOU MUST use parameter -r and BUILD_DIR=some_dir, or the dependence will be broken when building due to my pro structure.
    If you are using QtCreator to build the project, you should go to Projects->Build Steps->qmake->Additional arguments, add BUILD_DIR=your/buid/dir

  3. make
    you player binary will be created in $$BUILD_DIR/bin. If you are in windows, the QtAV dll also be there

ISSUES

If you want to build a debug version, you may get some link errors. It's not your problem, my qmake projects have some little problem. Just fix it manually yourself
