Phonon/Randa2011

Back to Phonon...

Possible Topics

• Discuss the use of Phonon for use in games
• QtDeclarative support (AudioOutput, MediaObject etc.) - apachelogger has plans
• Attract more developers
• Improve QA process && bug triage
• Discuss KDE's stable updates policy and decide whether to implement it -> would allow for Phonon patch updates to land in Ubuntu updates without much hassle for downstream

Phonon Five

• General API design
  • Make simple things simpler (remove/hide mediagraph?)
  • Build list of all requirements known
  • Consult with downstream to find missing requirements
• Define target audience
  • Music Players
  • Video Players
  • Multimedia Players
  • Software that needs to play one sound/video file ever so often
