Detailed Description
Rectangle { width: 800 height: 600 color: "black" MediaPlayer { id: player source: "file://video.webm" autoPlay: true } VideoOutput { id: videoOutput source: player anchors.fill: parent } }
The VideoOutput item supports untransformed, stretched, and uniformly scaled video presentation. For a description of stretched uniformly scaled presentation, see the fillMode property description.
The VideoOutput item works with backends that support either QVideoRendererControl or QVideoWindowControl. If the backend only supports QVideoWindowControl, the video is rendered onto an overlay window that is layered on top of the QtQuick window. Due to the nature of the video overlays, certain features are not available for these kind of backends:
- Some transformations like rotations
- Having other QtQuick items on top of the VideoOutput item
Most backends however do support QVideoRendererControl and therefore don't have the limitations listed above.
See also MediaPlayer and Camera.
Property Documentation
This property allows you to enable and disable auto orientation of the video stream, so that its orientation always matches the orientation of the screen. If autoOrientation
is enabled, the orientation
property is overwritten.
By default autoOrientation
is disabled.
This property was introduced in Qt 5.2.
See also orientation.
This property holds the item coordinates of the area that would contain video to render. With certain fill modes, this rectangle will be larger than the visible area of the VideoOutput
.
This property is useful when other coordinates are specified in terms of the source dimensions - this applied for relative (normalized) frame coordinates in the range of 0 to 1.0.
Areas outside this will be transparent.
See also mapRectToItem() and mapPointToItem().
Set this property to define how the video is scaled to fit the target area.
- Stretch - the video is scaled to fit.
- PreserveAspectFit - the video is scaled uniformly to fit without cropping
- PreserveAspectCrop - the video is scaled uniformly to fill, cropping if necessary
The default fill mode is PreserveAspectFit.
This property holds the list of video filters that are run on the video frames. The order of the filters in the list matches the order in which they will be invoked on the video frames. The objects in the list must be instances of a subclass of QAbstractVideoFilter.
See also QAbstractVideoFilter.
Set this property to define what VideoOutput
should show when playback is finished or stopped.
- EmptyFrame - clears video output.
- FirstFrame - shows the first valid frame.
- LastFrame - shows the last valid frame.
The default flush mode is EmptyFrame.
This property was introduced in Qt 5.13.
In some cases the source video stream requires a certain orientation to be correct. This includes sources like a camera viewfinder, where the displayed viewfinder should match reality, no matter what rotation the rest of the user interface has.
This property allows you to apply a rotation (in steps of 90 degrees) to compensate for any user interface rotation, with positive values in the anti-clockwise direction.
The orientation change will also affect the mapping of coordinates from source to viewport.
See also autoOrientation.
This property holds the source item providing the video frames like MediaPlayer or Camera.
If you are extending your own C++ classes to interoperate with VideoOutput, you can either provide a QObject based class with a mediaObject
property that exposes a QMediaObject derived class that has a QVideoRendererControl available, or you can provide a QObject based class with a writable videoSurface
property that can accept a QAbstractVideoSurface based class and can follow the correct protocol to deliver QVideoFrames to it.
This property holds the area of the source video content that is considered for rendering. The values are in source pixel coordinates, adjusted for the source's pixel aspect ratio.
Note that typically the top left corner of this rectangle will be 0,0
while the width and height will be the width and height of the input content. Only when the video source has a viewport set, these values will differ.
The orientation setting does not affect this rectangle.
See also QVideoSurfaceFormat::pixelAspectRatio() and QVideoSurfaceFormat::viewport().
This property holds the underlaying video surface that can be used to render the video frames to this VideoOutput element. It is similar to setting a QObject with videoSurface
property as a source, where this video surface will be set.
This property was introduced in Qt 5.15.

Method Documentation
Given normalized coordinates point (that is, each component in the range of 0 to 1.0), return the mapped point that it corresponds to (in item coordinates). This mapping is affected by the orientation.
Depending on the fill mode, this point may lie outside the rendered rectangle.
