Status of JMF

Hi,
I'm curious on the current status of the Java Media Framework. The latest news on the JMF API are from November 2004. Are there any changes and/or updates planned?

it's been discontinued actually and became open source. there are 2 (at least i know for sure) extensions for JMF made by ppl, who still wanna keep it running:
1. media4j -> simple to use, but it's a little static
2. fmj -> more difficult to use, but flexible
both require preliminaly installation of JMF 2.1.1e
just seach net for these 2, if u r interested.

Status of JMF 2.1.1e ?

What is the latest version of JMF?
According to the JMF page at http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/
There is a date from May 5 2003 saying that there is new JMF2.1.1e release.
Moving to the download page for JMF the latest release is still 2.1.1e!!!
Have not JMF been changed/updated for almost 5 years???

Playing a video file retrieved from database using JMF

Hello!
I am developing a multimedia application that has to store videos, music, pictures in a database. I did a little searching and found that JMF is a very good solution in playing video/music using Java. I found some examples to play the video/music stored on the hard drive (as separate files), but i have to be able to take the video/music from the database, and feed it to the JMF player. Has anyone some suggestions about how this could be done?
Thanks in advance!

Well, i think i didn't make myself clear enough :). i know how to retreive the data from the database. The thing is this: let's suppose i have a 700 MB movie stored in the database. One option to play that movie would be to retrieve it from the DB, create a file somewhere on the disk, and put the data retrieved from the database in that file. But this involves that the disk will be overflooded when let's say 100 people watch 100 different movies. Another option (as i see it) would be to gradually take parts of the movie from the database (first 50 MB, then another 50 MB, then another and so on), and feed it to the JMF player. The user will watch the movie, but will not have the whole movie available, just a part of it. As he watches it, the application takes the next chunck of movie data and feeds it to the JMF player. That was the question i intended to ask, if anyone has any idea regarding the second option, and not the part with retrieving from the database, but the part with giving the JMF player video data to play.
The example i found on the web with JMF player is the following:
import javax.swing.*;*
*import javax.media.*;
import java.awt.*;*
*import java.awt.event.*;
import java.net.*;*
*import java.io.*;

          player.start();
     public static void main(String args[]) {
          PlayVideo pv = new PlayVideo();
}but this example plays a video stored on the disk ( player = Manager.createPlayer(url); ), rather than a chunck of data (the whole movie or parts of it) retrieved from the database.
Sorry for the misunderstanding!
Cheers!

JMF 2.1.1e API Documentation is Removed from Sun

Hi All,
In the last few days i'm not able to browse the JMF 2.1.1e API Documentations pages, its automatically redirecting to JMF 2.0 API documentation where there are no document for some important api's like RTPManager.
Have any one downloaded the API Documentation from sun.com previously, If so please send it to my mail id - [email protected]
Or is there any other link to JMF 2.1.1e API documentation pls reply.
Thanks in Advance,
Karthikeyan R

Check your mail..
By the way. Did you report the broken links to Sun?
I was so irritated at finding all the details of classes missing, that I did not think to report it.
The missing JavaDocs may be a simple oversight.
Edited by: AndrewThompson64 on May 18, 2008 1:03 AM
OK.. found the motivation to report it. Here is the report I submitted.
This thread complains of missing JavaDocs for the JMF classes
[http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10256685]
Somebody replied that they are here..
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/apidocs/]
But this is only the 'top level' documents, and every link from those pages that I have tried so far, is a '404'.
For example, 1st links in the left hand frames..
Top frame. The link to the javax.media package
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/apidocs/javax/media/package-frame.html]
Bottom frame. The link to the ActiveReceiveStreamEvent class
[http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/2.1.1/apidocs/javax/media/rtp/event/ActiveReceiveStreamEvent.html]
Also tried Processor, RTPManager and a few others. All '404'.
What gives? Is this an oversight, or another step in Sun's gradual abandonment of JMF?
(And if it is the latter, isn't it better to put the poor programmers out of their misery by making a public announcement re the status and future of JFM, and removing the top level of those JavaDocs?)

JTAPI, JMF, and the 7921G

Â Â We have a JTAPI application that uses the JMF library to send audio. The streaming audio stream can be heard on the desktop phones (e. g. 7941, 7961), wireless 7920 phones, and the Cisco IP Communicator but cannot be heard on the wireless 7921G or 7925G phones. There are no errors encountered in the programming logs when the audio is streamed with JMF to these phones.Â
Â Â To try to pinpoint the problem, we have gathered a number of traces and logs using the Cisco Real-Time Monitoring Tool and Wireshark. Â The only suspicious thing that we saw was in the Call Statics on the 7921G itself. Â The received packets showed 38 and the discarded packets also showed 38. Â But, we have no idea what the discarded packets are or why the 7921G would discard packets to begin with. Â We don't see discarded packets during a normal phone call.
Â Â People that we have talked to about this problem have indicated that they think it's a codec problem, but when we look at the codec in the traces, the phone status log and the events that we get back at the programmatic level, everything indicates that we are sending and receiving with the G.711 u-law with a 30msec packets size, and this matches the codec of the streaming application. Â We have even turned off the CUCM Service parameter "G722 Codec Enabled" to make sure that this setting was not overriding the G.711 negotiation. Â Changing the parameter had no effect on the problem.
Â Â We have checked the more obvious problems such as the volume on the 7921G phone and the volume of the original recording. Â In addition, we tried to rule out a WAP problem by using the CIPC on a wireless laptop connected to the same WAP as the 7921G phone. Â The announcement played just fine on the CIPC on the wireless laptop. Â
Â Â At the programming level,Â the audio is being streamed over a CTI port by the application when the call is connected to the destination phone. So, essentially, once the JTAPI application receives theÂ CiscoRTPOutputStartedEvÂ event, we set up the remote connection and start the stream.Â
The CTI port is set with:â¨Â Â Â CiscoMediaCapability[] caps = newÂ CiscoMediaCapability[1];â¨Â Â Â caps[Â 0] = CiscoMediaCapability.G711_64K_30_MILLISECONDS;
â¨ The audio stream is set for format ULAW_RAW (codec G.711 u-law):Â â¨Â Â FormatÂ audioFormatÂ = newÂ AudioFormat(Â AudioFormat.ULAW_RTP, 8000, 8, 1 );
â¨ I've adjusted the packet size to 20ms for the CUCM defaults as well as for theÂ CiscoMediaCapabiltiesÂ thinking that something might not be in sync. While making those adjustments effected the quality of the audio for the phones that were working, it did not effect being able to hear the audio on the 7921G. Â This problem occurs on the CCM 4.X, CUCM 6.0 and CUCM 7.0.1 platforms
Â Â Hopefully, there is a setting that we've overlooked, and there is a simple solution to the problem.
Thanks,
-Judy

Yes, your statement is an accurate way to state it. We wait until the receiving phone has been answered and use the remote port obtained from the RTPOutputProperties to stream a unicast announcement to the phone. Then, we wait for a DTMF response from the user in IVR fashion.
We'd assumed that other people were streaming announcements to the 7921G and not having a problem but wondered if anyone was doing it the way that we are. The previous post is helpful in trying to understand more about the phone. But, the question remains, what is different about how the 7921G reacts to the stream and how CIPC reacts to the stream going through the same WAP such that the announcement is not heard on the 7921G?

Is JMF old technology?

Hello everyone,
I'm working on a video conferencing program and I've had my mind set on using JMF for the streaming video feed. However, after doing a little digging online for a way to install the JMF libraries on my Mac I'm seeing people talk about Sun no longer supporting, or advancing this technology. If this is the case can anyone suggest another method that may be more supported and easier to program?
Thanks,
Mike

This is a concern I also worry about. What is the up to date status of the JMF API and the roadmap?

Can JMF support 13 bit uniform PCM ?

Hi everyone,
I want to play AMR RTP stream in JMF, now, I got 13bit uniform PCM in a short array after using amr decoder, but seems Jmf can't play this 13 bit uniform PCM directly. so , I tried converting these PCM to U law PCM ,and tried A law PCM also, but the sounds still cann't play well? Doesn't someone know how to play these 13 bit uniform PCM in JMF ?
Thank you very much!

@? In answer to my own question, and I think I had known this a while back, SPDIF standard only supports transmission of either 2 channel PCM (uncompressed) stereo with up to 24 bit resolution per channel and up to as much as 92 kHz sampling frequency, or compressed (DD or DTS) multichannel audio up to 5..
Since each frame of SPDF is 64 bits in length (with a single sample of L and R channels plus extra bits of status in each frame), at 92 kHz max sampling rate, this translates to about 3 Mbits/sec bit rate. However most SPDF don't support the 92 kHz rate (which for 24 bit would be the stereo rate for DVD-Audio) for various copyright protection reasons.
Here is short demonstration of SPDIF transmission of 24bit/96 kHz between two sound cards with and without "bit accurate for playback" enabled:

Any ideas for a status or "at a glance" splash screen / presentation?

This is an idea I've been tossing around and wanted to know if there was something easy out there that would accomplish this...
I'd like to mount a monitor in one of our common areas for the management team and have it display current statuses of some of our IT features/services and maybe quick bits on what we are currently working on, major issues, etc...
I've seen some company lobbies with similar setups that display company-wide information, weather, etc.. so I know the capability is out there but I don't know squat regarding what that would entail. The easier, the better, naturally... as I don't want this to turn into an entire job position updating it, haha. But something that I could hopefully remotely update would be nice.
Any ideas? Thanks!

We have some purchase orders pertaining to 2006 year. we have not done MIGO and we did MIRO, So that we could not able to clear GR/IR A/C. SO, we have posted manual entry with fb50 same as MIGO posting then we cleared both documents with f-03 its done every thing was fine now But if we see purchase order report status showing OPEN
How to change the status please some one let me know.this is high priority issue.

Hi,
Check the table entries for the excise invoice. First check the Part II entry correctly made in J_1IPART2 table. And also check the status of the Excise Invoice in tables J_1IEXCDTL, J_1IEXCHDR, J_1IGRXREF is posted or not (P).
If there status P is missing after Part II posting you have to make it as 'P'.
Regards,
Sandeep
