I am trying to play a video on Java FX components but not able to play.

I know how to play a video in swing using vlcj but when I am trying the same I am not able to do so in javafx

@Override

public void start(Stage primaryStage)

{

File f = new File("Video.mp4");

new NativeDiscovery().discover();

EmbeddedMediaPlayerComponent playerComponent = new EmbeddedMediaPlayerComponent();

/*I dont know where to add the playerComponent as we do in swing*/

MediaPlayer mp=playerComponent.getMediaPlayer();

StackPane root = new StackPane();

Scene scene = new Scene(root, 700, 700);

primaryStage.setTitle("Hello World!");

primaryStage.setScene(scene);

primaryStage.show();

}

//above code is for javafx where I am getting a problem

//below code for swing

public void playVideo()

{

new NativeDiscovery().discover();

EmbeddedMediaPlayerComponent playerComponent = new EmbeddedMediaPlayerComponent();

jif[i].setContentPane(playerComponent);

MediaPlayer p = playerComponent.getMediaPlayer();

ft = new FileTest();

videoList = ft.getVideoList();

jif[i].setVisible(true);

frame.setVisible(true);

p.setAspectRatio(width[i] + ":" + height[i]);

p.playMedia(videoList[0]);

}

I want to know what I need to do in javafx for settingContentPane we do in swing.

EmbeddedMediaPlayerComponent requires a heavyweight AWT Canvas to play the video in. You can't use that approach in JavaFX.

For JavaFX you have to render the video yourself using a DirectMediaPlayerComponent - "direct" meaning "direct rendering". At a high level this involves getting the video data (provided by the component for you) and then you rendering it in some way, like copying the video data to an image in your scene.

There is a full project here that shows a number of ways to do it, including one solution to get a resizable video player working:
