Best/simplest media framework for java

Question

I'm going to make a really really simple program in java. The program is just going to display a video running fullscreen in an eternal loop, and do a playback of a soundfile on a mousebutton event.

The problem is that I dont't seem to find an easy way to just play a videofile in java. Most of the frameworks seem old.

What framework would you suggest?

Answer 1

Try xuggle or FMJ. Both are actively supported. JMF is still ok for certain projects.
