Both VLC and MPlayer backends are now hosted on gitorious: http://www.gitorious.org/phonon

The MPlayer backend has been moved to http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/multimedia/phonon-backends/mplayer/ http://phonon-vlc-mplayer.googlecode.com is dead, long life to the MPlayer and VLC backends!

QuarkPlayer has been moved to http://quarkplayer.googlecode.com The VLC backend is now hosted at http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/multimedia/phonon-backends/vlc/

Lukas Durfina is now maintaining the VLC backend. Here is the address for the source code: http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc-lukas.git;a=tree;f=projects/phonon/vlc;hb=HEAD The MPlayer backend is still hosted here. I have fixed a lot of bugs recently and now I can use it daily under Windows for my music and videos. Still MPlayer suffers from severe limitations :/ http://tkrotoff.blogspot.com/2008/11/mplayer-is-far-from-being-perfect.html

I applied for a KDE svn account (tkrotoff), so expect to see VLC and MPlayer backends on http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/kdesupport/phonon/ (or somewhere else) soon. This repo will be kept for experimentation (QuarkPlayer) and documentation.

0.1.0 released!

Get the right package, install latest MPlayer & VLC-0.9 then run the examples. I recommend mediaplayer in general and multiplevideoplayer for DVD/MKV chapters/titles/subtitles (MPlayer backend only).

For the Windows setup, you need to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package.

By default it is the MPlayer backend that is used, if you want to use the VLC backend, just delete phonon_backend/phonon_mplayer.(dll|so)

For the source package, do a svn checkout of revision 152.

The Phonon library given in the package is a patched version with better titles/chapters handling. phonon-vlc-mplayer is of course compatible with latest Phonon SVN with a simple #define

Any comment are more than welcome!

phonon-mplayer starts to look very good, I've added subtiles/chapters/angles/titles/audio stream support.

Current status: - libvlc is unfortunalty not fully tested and debugged. - libsmplayer from the SMPlayer project is to much "SMPlayer" oriented and was not design to be a library. So my current focus is the MPlayer backend and to create a small libmplayer.
