Problem with drawing Swingcomponents over the Videocomponent

Question

Hi there,
I'm trying to draw a simple Swingcomponent over a running video - I read in the Forums for days - nothing helped. I don't know why it still don't work.
LIGHTWEIGHT_RENDERER is already used
JLayeredPane is already used
Please help me - I don't what I can do anyway
public class MySecondJMFApp extends JFrame implements ControllerListener{
     private Player player;
     public MySecondJMFApp(){
          this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          try {
               Manager.setHint(Manager.LIGHTWEIGHT_RENDERER, new Boolean(true));
               player = Manager.createPlayer(new MediaLocator("file:C://video.mpg"));
               player.addControllerListener(this);
               player.realize();
          } catch (Exception e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
     public synchronized void controllerUpdate(ControllerEvent e) {
          if(e instanceof RealizeCompleteEvent){
               this.setBounds(0, 0, 800, 600);
               this.setLocation(0,0);
               JLayeredPane layeredPane = new JLayeredPane();
               layeredPane.setPreferredSize(this.getSize());
               layeredPane.setLocation(0,0);
               this.add(layeredPane);
               Component video = player.getVisualComponent();
               video.setLocation(0, 0);
               video.setSize(this.getSize());
               JLabel label = new JLabel("THIS IS A RED TEXT");
               label.setForeground(Color.red);
               label.setOpaque(false);               
               label.setLocation(0, 0);
               label.setSize(this.getSize());
//also tryed     label.setSize(this.getSize().width + 1, this.getSize().height + 1);
               layeredPane.add(video, new Integer(1));
               layeredPane.add(label, new Integer(10));
               player.start();
               this.setVisible(true);
     public static void main(String args[]){
          MyFirstJMFApp jmf = new MyFirstJMFApp();
}

Hi there,
I solved the problem by myself :-)
I read the API-Documentation again and again until I recognized the little "try" in "JMF trys to create a lightweigt Component". So I tried some other videos and realized - this Code is definitly working if JMF is able to create a lightweigth Component. In some cases I saw the red text - in other cases not.
Good luck, if you have the same problem like I got ;-)
