now, as far as i know, mp4, avi, wav etc etc
doesn't supported by lwjgl or slick.

any one know / got idea / maybe share example code,
to how i can play in my game a short intro video
because i want to put this intro logo befor my game start loading every thing. (like in all the epics game - MW3 etc etc).


tnx.

LWJGL is very focused in its functionality, so it doesn't have built in video support (unfortunately). Slick doesn't support it either; I'd imagine that there hasn't been enough requests to push them into an expansion of the engine.

I feel your pain, though. I've been wanting to play with video and LWJGL for a while.

but the problem is that lwjgl doesn't have AVDecoder class any more inside.

I'm fairly certain LWJGL never had a class called AVDecoder. It looks like that is the main decoding class for that library.
You probably need the source code from the link he posted:

The video playback is based on ffmpeg but the API i wrote in java is quite more simple. You can get all the sources (C++ and Java) and a binary release (win32 only)  but it should compile OK under linux and maybe OSX from here: http://www.scratchydreams.com/projects/lwjgl-mm.7z

which i checked and its broke.

You can have a look at this one:

It should be possible to get it to work with lwjgl I guess but it might take some work from your side.

I had some success with Xuggle.

can you please post here the code of which how you combine Xuggle and Lwjgl?
i can't get it right...
tnx ?

Quite a while back now and it was at work, so I don't have the code any more. But just know that it can be done. It's not a particularly pretty or elegant solution and it's quite large but it worked.
