So, I am having quite a time getting the video player in QT 5.5.1 created in QML to work with PyQt5 installed from Ubuntu. In fact, everything is installed from Ubuntu so I am fairly certain the Qt versions are correct. The QML will not load but get the error presented below.
How can I get the video player and the rest of the multimedia toolkit in QT5 to work in PyQt5?

Despite installing libqt5multimedia, libqtmultimediaquick and libqt multimedia declarative, and seeing the video player in QT creator, I cannot seem to get the video player to work.
I receive the following error when running my code:
QQmlApplicationEngine failed to load component
file:///home/me/PycharmProjects/EduTech/app/resources/qml/vplayer.qml:2 plugin cannot be loaded for module "QtMultimedia": Cannot load library /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/PyQt5/Qt/qml/QtMultimedia/libdeclarative_multimedia.so: (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5MultimediaQuick_p.so.5: version `Qt_5_PRIVATE_API' not found (required by /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/PyQt5/Qt/qml/QtMultimedia/libdeclarative_multimedia.so))
I run my qml as follows:
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
engine = QQmlApplicationEngine()
engine.load(QUrl('../app/resources/qml/vplayer.qml'))
sys.exit(app.exec_())
