When playing a 3K video (2880x1800) with MediaPlayer a vertical line over the video gets drawed and after the line the video has some kind of sepia filter. Screenshot: http://i.stack.imgur.com/urMXA.jpg
When using an even wider video (5570x1080) a second line appears. Screenshot: http://i.stack.imgur.com/CQExT.jpg
Under Windows 8.1 the video doesn't play at all with JavaFX. But with VLC it is no problem. The used video was created with ffmpeg: ffmpeg -framerate 30 -i APPG001%04d.jpg -r 30 -filter:v crop=12000:2250:0:0 -s 5760x1080 -vcodec libx264 -preset ultrafast -crf 15 -pix_fmt yuv420p Timelapse.mp4
How to reproduce the last example: Use the example from http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/media/playercontrol.htm and the video https://www.dropbox.com/s/s6vb2o5zpsp64iu/Timelapse.mp4?dl=1
