Hi Robert,

Regarding your problem, fobs4jmf is a wrapper on top of ffmpeg and it supports a wide range of formats:

So the problem might be on the configuration of your environment. Have you follow the steps on the README file to download all the dependencies?

I googled for a sample MPEG1 file and found this website:

If you still having trouble, don’t hesitate on dropping another comment.

Good luck.

I am having trouble getting a video file to load in. I’ve tried avi, mov, ogg, and mp4 video formats.

For the avi file, the error is

Unable to handle format: CRAM, 320×240, FrameRate=15.0, Length=96002 0 extra bytes
Failed to realize: com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@2bbd86
Error: Unable to realize com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@2bbd86
Something got wrong!

The .mov error message is similar. Any guesses on what I’m doing wrong? Is there an example video that the code is known to work on? Thanks!
