Lab 8- JavaFX UI Controls and Multimedia

The document outlines a project to create a media player using JavaFX, featuring controls for playing, pausing, stopping, and adjusting the volume of audio and video files. It includes requirements for a file chooser, media playback functionality, volume and seek controls, and responsive layout design. The code structure consists of three main classes for application initialization, UI interaction handling, and media management, along with implementation steps for setting up the user interface and media controls.

Lab 8- JavaFX UI Controls and Multimedia

Project Overview
Create a media player that allows users to open, play, pause, stop, and adjust the
volume of audio and video files. The application will have a user-friendly interface
with media controls and a file chooser to load media files. This is a great way to
learn about JavaFX’s media features and UI controls.

Requirements
 File Chooser:
o Use a FileChooser dialog to let users browse and select audio or video
files.
 Media Playback:
o Play, pause, and stop functionality for media playback.
o Display the name and path of the currently playing file.
 Volume Control:
o Use a Slider to control the volume.
 Seek Control:
o Add a slider to show and control playback progress.
 Media Information:
o Show playback information, such as the current playback time and
total duration.
 Responsive Layout:
o Make sure the UI adjusts based on screen size changes.
 Video View:
o Display video playback in a MediaView node for video files.
o Hide the video view if the loaded file is an audio file.

Code Structure:

├── src
│ ├── MediaPlayerApp.java // Main Application Class
│ ├── Controller.java // Controller for handling UI interactions
│ └── MediaManager.java // Helper class for media handling (e.g., play,
pause, stop)
│

├── resources
│ ├── styles.css // CSS for UI styling
│ └── icons // Icons for play, pause, stop, etc.
│
└── lib // Additional libraries if needed

Classes Overview
1. MediaPlayerApp.java: Initializes the JavaFX application and loads the FXML
layout file.
2. Controller.java: Handles UI actions, such as play, pause, stop, and volume
control, and updates the UI components.
3. MediaManager.java: Manages the MediaPlayer object, providing methods for
playback and control.

Implementation Steps
 Set up the UI using FXML:
o Design an FXML layout with buttons for play, pause, and stop.
o Add a Slider for volume and another slider for the seek bar.
o Add a MediaView for video playback.
 Optional: Add labels to display the current time and total duration.
o Add the File Chooser:
o Use a FileChooser to let users load audio and video files.
 Control Media Playback:
o Use Media and MediaPlayer classes to play audio and video files.
o Bind the play, pause, and stop buttons to control media playback.
 Volume and Seek Control:
o Bind the volume slider to the MediaPlayer’s volume property.
o Update the seek slider to reflect the current playback time.
o Allow users to drag the seek slider to seek to different parts of the
media.
 Display Video or Hide MediaView for Audio:
o Use MediaView for video playback.
o Hide the MediaView if an audio file is playing.
