Since I'm not able to figure out how to get gstreamer to work with MXE,
I'm now trying Qt5 and its multimedia module. So I've build that and

works. The error message says:
The QMediaPlayer object does not have a valid service.
Please check the media service plugins are installed.

There's a good chance you're pioneering if you are using static QtMultimedia.
I haven't tried multimedia support since phonon first appeared in Qt 4 several
years ago. You probably have to link explicitly to the DirectShow plugin by
adding QTPLUGINS to your .pro file [1]. (In Qt 5, qmake should take care of the
Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN() macro.) Even then I don't know if it will work. Please let
us know how it works out.
