Embedding JW Player into a Java Swing Application

Hi everybody,

I'm currently working on a java swing project, and I want to use jw player to read some video streams inside the main application.

In order to achieve that, I use an API which allows me to access native system functions, and gives me an interface to load and use jw player. However that interface can only communicate with the player through its native functions. I mean instead of, for example, using a function like setMute (given by javascript documentation), I need to use its native counterpart 'jwSetMute' to the api in order to get the same result.

I was wondering if there was a link on this website on which native functions are documented, so that I can finally use the player inside my application.

I apoligize in advance if this topic has already been discussed/solved, in which case I'll grateful to be pointed in the right direction.

Thanks,

Ariel.

This isn’t something I have ever seen before, so not really a supported use case I’m afraid. It might work, but we have never tried it before.

I know it does work, as a matter of fact I successfully tested native functions 'jwLoad' and 'jwSetMute' in my project using native swint api at http://djproject.sourceforge.net/ns/.

The problem is that I'd like to know all the other functions that are embedded in the player.

Okay.

Here are all of the other functions – http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/jw-player-for-flash-v5/12540/javascript-api-reference

Thanks Ethan, but I was looking for the list of native functions that are called even by those javascript functions in the api documentation.

May be if I were to be indicated the file where all javascript functions are defined, I might have an insight onto what I'm searching. The jwplayer.js file provided with the distribution doesn't seem to be the one.

I'm currently looking at http://developer.longtailvideo.com/trac/browser/trunk/fl5/js/src/api/jwplayer.api.js, and I think I'm one step closer to what I need.
