I have tested most of the libraries available for processing able to render video files, but i never was happy. Either it became slow, unstable or just crashing. I wanted something better, so i went looking into JMF (Java Media Framework).
During my research i came across this Pirelenito’s website with a great example on using FOBS+JMF, exactly what i needed. So i downloaded it and started working on it, putting into it a bit of myself.
So here it is, a first pre-beta version of a library capable of rendering movie files (with sound) with Java/Processing without much effort.
NOTE! I’m still having problems with a couple of codecs like DivX, Xvid, H264. It crashes on me when rendering some of these, but it works just fine for Mpeg4, PhotoJPEG, Cinepak. It isn’t perfect, but if you be careful and use the right format/codec it will go smooth. Meanwhile i will be working on a better version.
