Description
Java Sound does not provide MPEG I layer 3 (mp3) decoding for playback. mp3 is gaining more and more importance, especially for streaming media over the Internet and pay-per-listen systems. The JDK and JRE should provide mp3 decoding support so that customers will choose Java as platform for these applications.
Comments
EVALUATION michael.bundschuh@Eng 2001-07-13 This is the most requested new feature for Java Sound. There will be legal issues to resolve in addition to the engineering work, but well worth doing. Commit to fix/add for next major release of J2SE after 1.4 (1.4 feature set is frozen so it has to be for a later release). ###@###.### 2002-05-30 As of today, this bug has JDC 206 votes and is top 14 of all RFE's. ###@###.### 2002-10-02 OGG/Vorbis should be given high priority, too. It is requested under bug number 4671067. ###@###.### 2003-09-22 Probable solution is to make a standalone-plugin available. ###@###.### 2004-11-15 MP3 support is now available at: http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/mp3/download.html ###@###.### 2004-11-15 18:41:58 GMT
