What's a good alternative to Xuggler as its development has haulted?

Question

Xuggler has been discontinued and the maven repository no longer exists. Is there a good alternative out there for video encoding/decoding? Or will Xuggler suffice even though it has stopped being maintained?

Answer 1

In terms of Java based API, I have been doing some search for my video encoding/decoding, i only ended up to find xuggler was the still best choice regardless of its development stopped, popular open source library like RED5 still uses xuggler underneath, for encoding/decoding. Author of xuggler has started a new github library called humble-video I am not quite sure how far extend this has gone. Probably you maycan check that too.

Possible other option you may consider is vlcj, it is just a java wrapper over vlc, which can be used for transcoding
