this is my code.

void MainWindow::on_actionOpen_triggered()
{
  QString filename= QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this,"Open Folder","","Open a File(*.*)");
  on_actionStop_triggered();
   player->setMedia(QUrl::fromLocalFile(filename));
   on_actionPlay_triggered();

    if(filename.endsWith(".mp3")){
        qDebug() << " file is mp3";
        this->setFixedSize(648,425);

To make the window resizable again, try this: 

if(filename.endsWith(".mp3")){
    qDebug() << " file is mp3";
    this->setFixedSize(648,425);

}else{

    setMaximumSize(QWIDGETSIZE_MAX, QWIDGETSIZE_MAX);
    setMinimumSize(0,0);

    //now you should be able to resize it
}

If you want it to be the size it was before setting fixed size, have a QSize private member in your class

private:
  QSize size_reset;

and use it to save the window size before setting it to fixed:

size_reset = this->size();
this->setFixedSize(648,425);

then to reset the window size:

setMaximumSize(QWIDGETSIZE_MAX, QWIDGETSIZE_MAX);
setMinimumSize(0,0);
this->resize(reset_size);
