<div>Well, since I have not received any replies, I would like to give
the answers myself. I guess I did not supply you with enough data.
First of all: the above works well on QT 6.0.2 as well, but the
original data have to be converted in another way. Since my original
data come from milliseconds (video stored on a laser disc), with QT
5.0.2 I had to convert them as follows: tFromNumber*600/1000 and
tToNumber*600/1000. With QT 6.0.2 I have to convert the original
milliseconds: tFromNumber*90 and tToNumber*90. Don't ask me why,
but it works.</div>
