Detailed Description

The QtMultimedia object is a global object with utility functions and properties.

Property Documentation

[read-only] availableCameras : list<object>

This property provides information about the cameras available on the system.

Each object in the list has the following properties:

`deviceId`	This read-only property holds the unique identifier of the camera. You can choose which device to use with a Camera object by setting its deviceId property to this value.
`displayName`	This read-only property holds the human-readable name of the camera. You can use this property to display the name of the camera in a user interface.
`position`	This read-only property holds the physical position of the camera on the hardware system. Please see Camera.position for more information.
`orientation`	This read-only property holds the physical orientation of the camera sensor. Please see Camera.orientation for more information.

Note: This property is static; it is not updated when cameras are added or removed from the system, like USB cameras on a desktop platform.

The following example shows how to display a list of available cameras. The user can change the active camera by selecting one of the items in the list.


  Item {

      Camera {
          id: camera
      }

      VideoOutput {
          anchors.fill: parent
          source: camera
      }

      ListView {
          anchors.fill: parent

          model: QtMultimedia.availableCameras
          delegate: Text {
              text: modelData.displayName

              MouseArea {
                  anchors.fill: parent
                  onClicked: camera.deviceId = modelData.deviceId
              }
          }
      }
  }

[read-only] defaultCamera : object

The defaultCamera object provides information about the default camera on the system.

Its properties are deviceId, displayName, position and orientation. See availableCameras for a description of each of them.

If there is no default camera, defaultCamera.deviceId will contain an empty string.

Note: This property is static; it is not updated if the system's default camera changes after the application started.
