where is the problem???
I also tried with an .mpg-file and used:
player = Manager.createPlayer(is, "video/mpeg");

Do you get an error message? Or what happens?

It seems like you have not included the whole source code in here (at least get_start() is missing). Does that method return playVideo form to be displayed?

[gorsken]

nothing happens that is the problem.

when I press "stop" then it gives: java.lang.NullPointerException

and yes i did not give everything of the code
this is de full code:

Hi,

Please check whether "yeti.3gp" is present in the res folder in the correct path. It might be due to theat the video file is not present or not in the correct path.
Also unzip the jar and see whether it is in the right path

Regards,
Wang

[gorsken]

it is standing in the src directory so i believe it wil be the right one.
Is there also a limit how big the jar file can be?

[hartti]

So you have checked inside the jar-file (you can do it with Winzip for example) and the video file (yeti, rotate, ...) sits there in the root directory? From your answer I understand that the file is in the file system of your development machine, but that you have not checked inside the jar file. Is that correct?
