[maemo-developers] Maemo 5 - Playing sounds from Qt

[From: Antonio Aloisio]

Hi,
You can use phonon to play video and sound with Qt for fremantle.
It's available in current 4.5 community port as well as in the official 4.6
port.
It's cross-platform, anyhow you can read more about that at:

Br,
Antonio
