Playing .mpg video in Java without controls

[TTD03]

Hey all, new to the site!

So I am wondering if there is a way I can play .mpg video clips in a series, with one .mpg following the next, with the next video being determined by a keyboard input while the previous video was playing.

Additionally, is there a way to play .mpg videos without a "media player" setting? IE, I don't want any controls to be available for use, I just want the video playing in a full or windowed screen mode.

Thanks all!

I haven't done this myself but you may want to check out the Java Media Framework. There may be some classes that either provide that capability or can be subclassed and modified to provide it.

Thank you! I've looked into it. It just looks confusing as hell, especially since I am new to this.

If anyone else has any suggestions, please let me know!

JMF has been dead for quite some time now.

JavaFX has a MediaPlayer class for loading media (including MP3 files).
I would look at that (and the associated MediaView).
Most things in FX are configurable so you should be able to set it up the way you want.

Well! So much for my sagacious advice. :)

To be fair, I did have to look it up.

The supported container types for video are (besides other types) MP4 containers, so files with the extension .mp4, .m4a, .m4v

That should have read "MP4" above...:)
JavaFX MediaPlayer handles (or says it does) .mp4, .m4a and .m4v files...according to the api page.
