I am trying to build qtwebengine with proprietary codecs. I am following the answer on this stack overflow questions: Build QtWebEngine 5.9.1 with proprietary codecs. I have installed all the specified programs and began trying to build it. I made it to the git checkout 5.9.6 line before I had my first error. I fixed this by changing it to git checkout 5.9.8 and it seemed to work, so I then continued, however now it has given me another error that qmake.exe isn't recognized. I have looked everywhere in the qt folder and can't find any sign of the file. What have I done wrong to mean this has happened, could it be me changing the line to git checkout 5.9.8 or I haven't installed something correctly?

You must have qt installed to get qmake.exe – eyllanesc Aug 13 '21 at 17:17

No, you have to use the Qt online installer. It seems that you have never worked with Qt so I presume that you are going to have more problems. – eyllanesc Aug 13 '21 at 18:11
