does anyone know of a java library that plays vp8 or webm videos?
thanks!
VP8 and VP9 are highly-efficient video compression technologies (video "codecs") developed by the WebM Project. Anyone may use these codecs for no charge.
WebM supports the video codec VP8 and VP9.
WebM is supported by Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Chrome, and Internet Explorer browsers. Since most people use these popular browser choices already, it's easy to implement. Safari also recently opened support for WebM which is a huge plus for Apple users.
WebM is an open, royalty-free, media file format designed for the web. WebM defines the file container structure, video and audio formats. WebM files consist of video streams compressed with the VP8 or VP9 video codecs and audio streams compressed with the Vorbis or Opus audio codecs.
VLC can play webm and vp8 videos since version 1.1.0, and there are Java bindings available for it. Have a look at:
I've used jVLC and it works, but it is not actively maintained anymore. VLCJ looks very good.
