How to play video files in Java

Is it possible to play video files in Java?

Yes. Please check Java Media Framework and QuickTime for Java below:

Java Media Framework API (JMF)
QuickTime for Java

JMF is not supporting all types of video files.
You can just go to DiectX or DSJ plugin.

just see below link

And i dont understand the JMF website and how to use it....

[kirly]

you need to download and install JMF(Java Media Framework) inorder for you to play videos in your program.

if you cant install that upon making your program, you cant play video files..

Try being more specific in your questions, and in future don't post in other people's long-dead threads.
