Re: MJPEG Video Display for CS-Studio

[Xihui Chen <ztyaner11@gmail.com>]

Hi Kay,

Is the MJPEG displayable in Web Browser? I just learned that JavaFx has a Webkit engine embedded (WebView), so it doesn't depend on the native web browser installed on the OS. We may replace the BOY web browser widget with WebView to have better portability, so it can be used to display MJPEG video on all platforms. It seems easy to embed JavaFx into SWT with FXCanvas.

Otherwise, I saw there are some examples or library in displaying MJPEG in AWT:

Then you may either convert BufferedImage to SWT Image or embed Swing widget in SWT using SWT_AWT bridge.

Hope it helps.

Hello:

Has anybody by chance implemented an MJPEG Video Display for CS-Studio, preferably as a BOY widget?

Or do you have suggestions for a Java library that you have successfully used to display MJPEG?

Thanks,
Kay
