Video within Java

[Annka]

HI,

I have an Real Media Player video , made for my N-Gage. I wish to make a jad and jar files from it, so I would be able to send it to someone and he will be able to install it.

Please, help... Anyone ? :(

A .jad file is a Java Archive Description file, which is simply a text file that says where the jar (Java Archive) file is.

A .jar is just a zip compressed file that contains compiled Java program components and supporting files.

You don't generally package video files as .jar files.

If the person you want to get the video file, you should be able to send it "as is", but the recipient must also have a player that can play Real Video (or 3GPP) format video files.

If not, you have to convert the video file to some format that the recipient's device supports.

If you let us know what kind of phone the recipient has, and how you wish to send the video file, it might be easier to be more helpful.

The reason why I want to make it in jad, jar files is because I don't want the user to send it to more people.
Sending the video file itself will give the possibility like that.

Because you said that jar is basically zipped file and jad is text file, I need to have predefined player there too, right?

I have sample files done that way, but as far as I know, exchanging video file inside jar file didn't work.

Is there a way I can work it out?
