The Java Media Framework (JMF) is a Java library that enables audio, video and other time-based media to be added to Java applications and applets. This optional package, which can capture, play, stream, and transcode multiple media formats, extends the Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) and allows development of cross-platform multimedia applications. == Versions and licensing == An initial, playback-only version of JMF was developed by Sun Microsystems, Silicon Graphics, and Intel, and released as JMF 1.0 in 1997. JMF 2.0, developed by Sun and IBM, came out in 1999 and added capture, streaming, pluggable codecs, and transcoding. JMF is branded as part of Sun's "Desktop" technology of J2SE opposed to the Java server-side and client-side application frameworks. The notable exceptions are Java applets and Java Web Start, which have access to the full JMF in the web browser's or appletviewer's underlying JRE.〔(JMF FAQ )〕〔(Java Media Framework API )〕 JMF 2.0 originally shipped with an MP3 decoder and encoder. This was removed in 2002, and a new MP3 playback-only plug-in was posted in 2004. JMF binaries are available under a custom license, and the source is available under the SCSL. The current version ships with four JAR files, and shell scripts to launch four JMF-based applications: * JMStudio - A simple player GUI * JMFRegistry - A GUI for managing the JMF "registry," which manages preferences, plug-ins, etc. * JMFCustomizer - Used for creating a JAR file that contains only the classes needed by a specific JMF application, which allows developers to ship a smaller application. * JMFInit JMF is available in an all-Java version and as platform-specific "performance packs", which can contain native-code players for the platform, and/or hooks into a multimedia engine specific to that platform. JMF 2.0 offers performance packs for Linux, Solaris (on SPARC) and Windows.〔 In January 2011, Tudor Holton of (Bentokit Project ) released a Debian package for the JMF to alleviate difficulties that had arisen over time when installing the JMF on Debian and Ubuntu GNU/Linux. This package does not contain the JMF, but presents the user with the JMF License, retrieves it from the Oracle website, and then installs it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Launchpad )〕 A similar Debian package installer for the JMF MP3 Plugin was also built in February 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=4 March 2011 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Java Media Framework」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
