JMediaPlayer - get media duration, current playback time ... etc

Question

Hello everybody,
I can't seem to find API calls for the following purposes:
- get media duration
- get current playback time
- set current playback time
Does anybody know how to get/set those values?
By the way, I'm embedding the JMediaPlayer within a Swing application, not developing a classic FX tool.
Thank you in advance,
r.

To best learn JavaFX and its API and class of what it can do or not do, do learn to decompile the code into Java. You will find most of your answer there (though you may find it limit in understanding Java class compiled from JavaFX Script source)
First of all, the decompiled JMediaPlayer show the following code
package com.sun.media.jmc;
import com.sun.media.jmcimpl.PlayerControlPanel;
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.net.URI;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
// Referenced classes of package com.sun.media.jmc:
// JMediaPane, MediaUnavailableException, MediaUnsupportedException, MediaCorruptedException,
// MediaInaccessibleException
public class JMediaPlayer extends JComponent
public JMediaPlayer()
mediaPane = new JMediaPane();
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
add(mediaPane, "Center");
add(controlPanel = new PlayerControlPanel(mediaPane), "South");
controlPanel.setPlayEnabled(false);
public JMediaPlayer(URI uri)
throws MediaUnavailableException, MediaUnsupportedException, MediaCorruptedException, MediaInaccessibleException
mediaPane = new JMediaPane(uri);
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
add(mediaPane, "Center");
add(new PlayerControlPanel(mediaPane), "South");
public void play()
mediaPane.play();
public void stop()
mediaPane.stop();
public void pause()
mediaPane.pause();
public void setSource(URI uri)
throws MediaUnsupportedException, MediaUnavailableException, MediaCorruptedException, MediaInaccessibleException
if(mediaPane != null)
mediaPane.setSource(uri);
if(controlPanel != null)
controlPanel.setPlayEnabled(true);
public URI getSource()
return mediaPane.getSource();
public float setVolume(float f)
return mediaPane.setVolume(f);
public float getVolume()
return mediaPane.getVolume();
public void setMute(boolean flag)
mediaPane.setMute(flag);
public boolean isMute()
return mediaPane.isMute();
public void setRepeating(boolean flag)
if(mediaPane != null)
mediaPane.setRepeating(flag);
public boolean isRepeating()
if(mediaPane != null)
return mediaPane.isRepeating();
else
return false;
public void setAutoPlay(boolean flag)
mediaPane.setAutoPlay(flag);
public boolean isAutoPlay()
return mediaPane.isAutoPlay();
private JMediaPane mediaPane;
private PlayerControlPanel controlPanel;
The core object is JMediaPane with API to do what you want.
mediaPane.setMediaTime(_timeSec); // Set media time
mediaPane.getDuration(); // Get duration
mediaPane.getMediaTime(); // Get current playback time
Unfortunately, you cannot simply retrieve JMediaPane reference from JMediaPlayer because it has a private access modifier. Hence the only way is to create your own Player from the reference code above.
