Windows 10 h264 videos with QMediaPlayer

Question

I'd like to play h264 videos with QMediaPlayer on Windows 10. It does not work. The video does not appear. It works on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. Do I need to install some additional program?

It works on Windows 7, 8.1 and Linux. I've tried playing the videos on different laptops with Windows 10.

edit: I get an unresolved error code from doRender when playing the .MOV file:

This has been reported as a bug: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-51692 and a open feature request: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-32783

"-wmf-backend" Use wmf as backend for QMultimedia. Otherwise MP4 videos won't be supported when DirectShow is used"

so you have to build Qt 5 manually or use another format. Maybe .wmf works.
