javax.media.Player and JMenu problem

[nowy]

Hello,

I'm writing some program for video streaming using JMF and I've got a problem with javax.media.Player and JMenu used in my application. As you can see on screens below when Player is active it's always covering JMenu. Is there any solution to force Player "stay down" under other components?

Without running Player: img.polsl.eu/i,eb02f.jpg

After Player starts to work (the black thing over the menu is a Player component from player.getVisualComponent()): img.polsl.eu/i,35b5b.jpg

Sorry but I can't post images yet :(

Sounds like the Player is an AWT component which always paints on top of other Swing components.

However, if the only issue is the popup menu then you should be able to use:

JPopupMenu.setDefaultLightWeightPopupEnabled(false);

Otherwise you will need to update the JDK to a newer version as indicated in the article on Mixing Heavyweight and Lightweight Components (revisited)
