The Java Media Framework http://www.lehigh.edu/~wcd2/csc350/jmf by wayne deprince wcd2@lehigh.edu
The Java Platform • The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) • system services • implemented on host platform • extending the JVM through the Java Native Interface (JNI)
The JVM Extensions (javax) • Non standard services • Usually implemented using another technology of the host platform • Multimedia extension examples • JavaSound • Java3D • Java Media Framework (JMF)
JMF • Javax package used to play streaming and non-streaming media • Application framework • Plug-able media players • Supports many media formats • User defined players
JMF Implementation • Win32 • Direct X Media • DirectShow • QuickTime • JNI
Pros / Cons • Pros • It’s Java • Easy to program • Takes advantage of all host platform technologies • Cons • It’s Java • Java Extension Problem • non standard • JIT/WAT Compilers • Native technologies usually faster
The Road Ahead for JMF • Depends on the success of Java • the JDK problem • the javax problem • Time … • http://www.lehigh.edu/~wcd2/csc350/jmf
