How to play mov and wmv video format file in Java Swing?

Question

I am using JMF jar file, but i am only able to listen the sound but cant view the movie.

  Unable to handle format: RLE , 800x600, FrameRate=14.6, Length=31280
  Failed to realize: com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@17590db
  Error: Unable to realize com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@17590db

some error i got when trying to play the video.

Answer 1

JMF is basically dead

You can use xuggler to play wmv files in java swing.

Xuggler is a free open-source library for Java developers to uncompress, manipulate, and compress recorded or live video

You can view the code here .
