|* qtmultimedia: QTBUG-122889 videowidget- fails to play video
In Qt 6.5.5, the FFmpeg plugin is not delivered with Qt Multimedia on Windows  
 
platforms and Android armeabi-v7a due to provisioning issues. Only native
 
media backends, specifically "windows" and "android", are available there.
 
Note, the native backends are limitedly supported, so QMediaplayer and
 
QMediaRecorder might not work as they did in Qt 6.5.4, and QScreenCapture
 
doesn't work at all. If you use those, we recommend staying on Qt 6.5.4 until
 
Qt 6.5.6 is released or building QtMultimedia with the FFmpeg plugin by
 
yourself. 
|This bug was fixed in Qt 6.5.5-1 that was released 15th of March 2024.

=== Troubleshooting ===
Here are some tips for the most common issues. Please note that as a commercial customer you can also contact our support team.
 
# Please check your license. The LTS branches require a commercial license. An evaluation license does not provide access to the LTS sources.
# If you have used to work with the public Qt 5 repositories, please note that LTS sources are available via tqtc shadow repositories and a Gerrit account is needed for accessing them.

# If you see the following error message at the end of the cloning command, it might refer to the network issues (for example, too slow connection): ''fatal: early EOF''  ''fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output'' Please wait a while and try again cloning sources.
