Hello JMF
Well, I gotta say that working with JMF is about as fun as something that isn't much fun at all. But the results came sooner than I'd feared. Here's my first movie player:
Currently it is a simple Swing application. However, no matter how much I tried, I couldn't get it to work on the NetBeans Platform. I know it must have something to do with Fobs, which "is a set of object oriented APIs to deal with media. It relies in the ffmpeg library, but provides developers with a much simpler programming interface." It works fine when I bundle it together with the other JMF libraries (although, I have no sound and the visual movement is slow). But, when I migrate the same application to the NetBeans Platform, using the same libraries, I get this error message, which is what I got before porting my application to the NetBeans Platform, prior to including the Fobs library:
Unable to handle format: XVID, 624x352, FrameRate=23.9, Length=1317888 0 extra bytes Unable to handle format: mpeglayer3, 48000.0 Hz, 0-bit, Stereo, Unsigned, 18153.0 frame rate, FrameSize=9216 bits
If anyone knows the solution to this (and also how to get the sound working in my normal Swing application), that would be great.
