JAVE (Java Audio Video Encoder) library is what you are looking for:

The JAVE (Java Audio Video Encoder) library is Java wrapper on the
ffmpeg project. Developers can take take advantage of JAVE to
transcode audio and video files from a format to another. In example
you can transcode an AVI file to a MPEG one, you can change a DivX
video stream into a (youtube like) Flash FLV one, you can convert a
WAV audio file to a MP3 or a Ogg Vorbis one, you can separate and
transcode audio and video tracks, you can resize videos, changing
their sizes and proportions and so on. Many other formats, containers
and operations are supported by JAVE.
