QMPlay2 15.06.26 is Out, Available for Ubuntu / Linux Mint / Elementary OS / OpenSUSE 13.2

Install QMPlay2 15.06.26 on on Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet, ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn, Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr (LTS), Pinguy OS 14.04, Elementary OS 0.3 Freya, Linux Mint 17.2 Rafaela, Linux Mint 17.1 Rebecca, Linux Mint 17 Qiana [PPA] and OpenSUSE 13.2



QMPlay2 is a video and audio player. It can play all formats supported by FFmpeg, libmodplug (including J2B and SFX). It also supports Audio CD, raw files and Rayman 2 music. It contains YouTube and Prostopleer browser.

Other information
– You can also compile it on Windows, but you must build toolchain for your own!
– I’m using my own PKGBUILDs for many MinGW libraries.
– Visual Studio can’t compile QMPlay2.

Linux/BSD:
– Install all dependencies using package manager (in devel version) or compile it from sources.
– If you don’t want to open Xterm or Konsole – “export NOTERM=1”.
– If you want to prepare *.desktop files for system use – “export SYSTEM_BUILD=1”.
– If you want to compile with qt suffix (for example “qmake-qt5”) – “export QT_SUFFIX=-qt5”.
– Run “./compile_unix”.
– QMPlay2 is in “app” directory, you can move its contents into /usr directory if $SYSTEM_BUILD == 1.

OS X:
– Download and install Xcode.
– Download and install the newest Qt for Mac.
– Download, compile and install “pkg-config”.
– Download and install CMake for Mac (for taglib).
– Download, compile and install all dependencies from sources.
– Add directory containing “qmake” to “PATH”.
– Run “./compile_mac n” where “n” is number of threads (4 by default).

Building package RPM, DEB or any other – look at Arch Linux PKGBUILD: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qm/qmplay2-git/PKGBUILD

QMPlay2 uses the external software – “youtube-dl”, so “youtube-dl” should be as optional package in package manager.

Changes in QMPlay2 build 15.06.26:
– better VSync support for OpenGL video output,
– OpenSLES audio output (for Android),
– basic OS X support,
– minor bug fixes,
