Yes, but JMF doesn't support those codecs and Oracle stopped developing it since 2003 and I couldn't make it work to play simple mjpeg file.
Another problem is that the client needs to install JMF on their system..

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to play a video stream (MJPEG and DivX Codec) through an applet. My project involves an RTSP server that streams mjpeg/divx/h.264 video files and I need an applet that shows the stream.

I started with vlcj ( http://code.google.com/p/vlcj/ ) but it doesn't work when I launch it in a browser because it needs the native vlc library. Is there a solution to get access to the native VLC library without using Java WebStart?

Or is there a pure java framework that supports those codecs? Or have you any idea how can I do this? What libraries to use?

Thanks.
