HI, All

Anyone tried B4JVlcj lib under Linux ? Works ?

Hi @peacemaker , I've tried it but couldn't get it to work (I don't remember what happened exactly, just that I abandoned the idea for Linux).

EDIT: had a look at my source code. 'vlc.IsVLCInstalled' returns False. The help text says 'If VLC has been installed in a non-standard directory, VLC might not be found'; I guess that's the reason why.

If it does not work, you can directly use the vlcj library. It works on ubuntu 20.04 in my case. Here is an article about using it in a JavaFX program: https://www.dynamsoft.com/codepool/barcode-reader-with-javafx-and-vlcj.html

@xulihang , when you can spare the time, would you mind posting a small project to show how that's done?
