Please help! Not able to set Video input Port(S-Video or Composite)on Linux

Question

Hi
I am using JMF2.1.1e(Linux performance pack) for video capturing on Linux OS. I want to set video input port(S-Video or composite) through my application. I am using the following code:
     if ( dataSource != null )
          arrControls = dataSource.getControls ();
     if ( arrControls != null )
          nCount = arrControls.length;
     System.out.println("No. of Controls: " + nCount);     
     for ( i = 0; i < nCount; i++ )
          if ( arrControls[i] == null )
               continue;
          if ( !(arrControls[i] instanceof Control) )
               continue;
          componentControl = ((Control)arrControls).getControlComponent ();
          System.out.println("ComponentControl : " + componentControl);
          if ( componentControl == null )
               continue;
But, i am getting No. of Controls: 0 (Zero). So i am not able to get any control component also. Rest of the application is working fine. Please help me solving this problem.
Thanks in advance.

To go a stage further.
Google run a Jabber server for their service.
Jabber apps (those that can) use a Protocol called Jingle to make the A/V connections.
Google's version is not even that compatible with other Jabber apps. (See Here)
The Plug-in in the Google Install (Or the Standalone Web Browser Plug-in allow Browsers to access the GoogleTalk A/V side as does the Standalone PC app called GoogleTalk as well.
iChat uses a process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to connect to other iChat Users or to the AIM for PC app.
However this also works in any iChat to iChat Connection no matter if the Buddy List is an AIM Login based one, Jabber (including GoogleTalk) or A LAN based Bonjour Chat.
In you care this is not going to work.
Getting the Standalone (Intel only) Browser Plug-in and using the Chat option in the Google Mail Web page is probably the easiest option.
