JavaFX MediaPlayer Demo

[vsquared]

Demonstrates a simple JavaFX MediaPlayer. Change file path for your system.

# Uses Imported mode for py5

from javafx.scene.media import Media, MediaPlayer, MediaView
from java.io import File

def setup():
  size(500, 500, FX2D);
  window_title('JavaFX MediaPlayer')
  canvas = get_surface().get_native()
  root = canvas.getParent()
  # ** Replace this with your file path **
  path = '/Users/xxxxx/Movies/birds.mp4'
  media = Media(File(path).toURI().toString())
  mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer(media)
  mediaView = MediaView(mediaPlayer)
  mediaPlayer.setAutoPlay(True)
  root.getChildren().add(mediaView)

You are having a lot of fun with this.

You told me to expand on your code to put JavaFX controls in the default Processing window. Let me know when you've had enough.

I enjoy watching your exploration and am looking forward for when I can really dig into this also.

Shorter compound imports: from javafx.scene.media import Media, MediaPlayer, MediaView
