一个纯java的H.264播放器--Onavia Video Player

在网上闲逛，遇到一个纯java的H.264播放器，看了它的官方网站上的applet，效果确实不错。

 

支持以下几种格式：

• .mp4 standard H.264 file format
• .mpeg standard H.264 file format
• .h264 standard H.264 file format
• .avi generic video file extension

有以下特征：

 

 

• High definition video. The Onavia H.264 Java Video Player plays the standard resolution and high definition video files that conform to the latest H.264 video compression standard.
• End-user controls. The player has all end-user functions including: play, pause, rewind, fast forward, video duration, elapsed time, clickable progress bar.
• Open APIs. Video publishers and web developers can customize the entire player (e.g. look & feel, colors, borders, window size, video resolution, streaming bandwidth, end-user controls). The player is fully customizable, and allows a publisher not only to control the end user experience, but also gives flexibility to rapidly change the end user experience to keep their website and video viewing experience fresh. It also allows a publisher to create different end user viewing experiences for different websites or within different sections of the same website.
• Cost-effective delivery of high quality video. Enables publishers and web developers to implement H.264 quality video into a website without the need to implement costly Flash servers.
• Can pull a video file from multiple domains/servers
• Platform independence. It works on PCs, Macs, and all popular browser (Internet Explorer, Mozzilla, Firefox)
• Device independence. Onavia H.264 Java Video Player can be easily ported to a variety of mobile devices and environments. The only requirement is that a device supports Java.
• Automatic Bandwidth detection. The player automatically senses the available bandwidth at the end user device and adjusts the buffering and streaming to deliver the best possible viewing experience.

java在多媒体方面很让人失望，那个JMF框架架构不错，但就是功能太弱。这个播放器的出现，至少说明了java在这方面还是有能力的，只是没发挥出来。可惜的是这个播放器不是开放的。java  applet和flash相比，还差许多。如果想用这个播放器做youtube这样的视频发布网站，估计玄。一个浏览器打开多个flash没啥问题，但要是打开多个applet，浏览器即使不崩溃，也很容易僵死。
