A practical introduction to multimedia programming using the Java Media Framework With the Java Media Framework, Internet developers no longer have to rely on plug-ins to add multimedia to their applets and applications. Using the new JMF API, you can build sophisticated multimedia web applets and cross-platform applications that support the whole gamut of cutting-edge multimedia features, including caching, synchronization, and streaming video. Coauthored by members of Intel' s Java Media Framework development team, this book shows you how to set up a JMF development environment, how to choose the development toolkit that' s right for you, and how to set up the SDK. With the help of numerous working examples-- including three complete quick-start web applets and a video JavaBean-- you will learn basic and advanced multimedia Java programming. An extensive annotated reference to the Java Media Player API provides programmers with an invaluable guide to the classes and interfaces of JMF.
