I have created a .ui based QMainWindow application, that has a menu bar a few buttons and a few labels with pixmaps setup, and uses bluetooth low energy. I have the graphics specified as filesystem paths instead of resources as suggested on pyqt.sourceforge.net/Docs/pyqtdeploy/pyrcc.html  On windows and linux the graphics load fine, but on android they don't appear to load, but the application works jsut fine.

I'm unable to make a deployed application for windows, the deployment works, but then I hit some compiler errors building the c++,  I think its assuming msvc if windows and I'm using mingw so some headers don't match, but I haven't dug into this yet and I'm not at home to post the error string.  To answer another post I did see the Cannot open include file QApplication, i just found Qapplication manually and copied over the header include from within that file manually.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm using the static build QT ship for
windows in their installer. I've just taken the C++  example
"examples/Qt-5.5/widgets/widget/movie" and added in a resource file,
added in my animation.gif file to it and made that load on startup,
this displays fine on Android.  I therefore assume my libraries are
OK, unless i could have broken the static pyqt build?
