The MediaTools are a collection of Java classes that make it even easier to decode, encode, modify and use video with Xuggler. We’ve put together some videos showing what you can do with the API. And for those people who prefer the harder way, don’t worry, the existing Xuggler API is still fully supported (and in fact accessible from a MediaTool). Enjoy!

To go along with the movie, you can now read the companion novel showing even more cool things you can do with MediaTools (like making thumnails of a video, or using a webcam, or capturing screenshots, etc.). You can find that tutorial here.

Thanks for the videos. Can you tell me, how can we do the same thing with streams ? For example i have VLC player who is streaming RTC packets on localhost:2010. Can i decode and encode it, so that i can view the stream in my flash player ?

[...] 06 Jun 09 FFMPEG made super simple Robert and Art continue to amaze me with their Xuggler project. If you are like me and have had to use FFMPEG in a project (Java in my case), you know how hard it can be to get everything working correctly. Xuggler has some how made this even more easy than with their 1.0 version. Through the use of their MediaTool you can do some incredible stuff; the stuff that should have been possible with JMF! Do yourself a favor and check out their post about the MediaTool. [...]

Not as such, but you can write an application that captures a screnshot of an SWF running using Xuggler

hi schrodinger,
thanks for your reply but i need to convert the swf directly as input and need to get flv or avi or mpg as output through a java program…
that screen capturing not useful for me…Is there any way to do this using ffmpeg or anything else..??!!
Thanks in advance…
