I’m trying Java Media Framework and I’m noticing that it doesn’t support many video formats and it seems not to be updated enough. Is there an alternative for JMF for Windows Java Desktop Applications?
Yes, I’d definitely recommend staying away from JMF. I’ve felt your frustrations! Personally I recommend VLCJ, especially if you need support for a wide range of formats – I’m using it in my application and it works very well.
