Qt6 and Multimedia module

As I can see in Qt6 no more Multimedia API. Am I right? Is it correct that in Qt6 for such simple task as playing sound I should look at third-party libraries now?

Qt Multimedia is (again) part of Qt 6.2.

Note though that the module was undergoing a substantial rewrite. For more details, see e.g. https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-multimedia-in-qt-6 and the relevant porting documentation.

Qt6 is a big change so for compatibility reasons Qt does not provide this module, it will be provided in Qt 6.2 as this post: Add-on support in Qt 6.0 and beyond points out, so if you want to reproduce sounds you will have to use a third party library.

For Qt 6.2 we are planning to provide the following additional libraries:

  • Qt Bluetooth
  • Qt Data Visualization
  • Qt Lottie Animation
  • Qt Multimedia
  • Qt NFC
  • Qt Positioning
  • Qt Quick Dialogs: Folder, Message Box
  • Qt Remote Objects
  • Qt Sensors
  • Qt SerialBus
  • Qt SerialPort
  • Qt WebChannel
  • Qt WebEngine
  • Qt WebSockets
  • Qt WebView
