Can this property be changed dynamically, ie, during program execution? Or will it only be read once - at startup?
I have a media player application in Java, running on Windows, that uses the Windows Media Player 9 SDK via JNI to play WMV files from a a MMS (streaming) server. This has been working great in production for quite a while. I am now adding support for playing Quicktime movies, via Quicktime for Java. However, I've been having major redraw issues (I'm using the native QT widgets, not the Swing ones - ie, a QTComponent, not a QTJComponent). Basically, if I move the window, or trigger some kind of repaint/update on the playing window (like moving the JFrame or clicking on another window, then clicking back on my main JFrame, the video starts acting "weird", including pausing, artifacts, no longer being centered, dropping frames, etc. I have found through painful trial-and-error that if I set swing.volatileImageBufferEnabled property to false in my main() method, these redraw issues magically disappear when playing movies using the Quicktime player component. However, since the Windows Media files have been working fine for some 2 years now, I don't want to blanket-disable this property. I just want to set it to true when I'm displaying a Windows Media component for playing video, and false when using the Quicktime component. Can I do this? If not by setting this property, is there some API method I can call to dynamically change this value on the fly? Thanks! Rob Ross, Senior Software Engineer E!
