Do you kill the process directly? I guess you do, since the front camera indicator led doesn't shut down as it should.
The led doesnt shut down? It does for me. And I kill it with a "killall gst-launch-0.10" command, which seems to work well... but yeah I dont terminate the QProcess....its gonna be tricky terminating from another function. I currently just use:
Code:
QProcess*proc = new QProcess();
proc->start(streamout);
where streamout is just the string "gst-launch blah". How do I make proc accessible from another function? I've already tried adding "QProcess proc;" to the private slot in the header like I would with any other shared variable, but it doesnt work.

Ah yeah I forgot about that, that should be easy to do

definitely, I just needed something to output to (Im not sure how to output to the qconsole...

Nope, it's actually a qwidget that lies over the mainwindow as hidden at startup. for some reason I can't hide it again, so I have to inefficiently QSize it to nothing....

Package is not optified, it installs in /usr/local/bin
It's debug, I didnt realise there was a difference.... and opt will not be a problem..

Thanks for the feedback man, I can't promise I'll get it done soon since I've been ignoring other work of mine... but hopefully in a few weeks...

Edit: I also forgot to add dependencies, and am now editing my control file....
