fyi,
goto http://javafx.com/ and refresh your browser 
(java 6u11 is out too)
[edit: contains JOGL ;D]
u11 or javafx?
lagged in http://www.javafx.com/samples/SimpleVideoPlayer/index.html on a Q6600 ā¦ needless to say it also ran perfect using a flash player
Whats up with getting a 589534980538490GB runtime for a āsimplevideoplayerā ?
25% cpu (100% on 1 core) using Java
11% cpu using Flash
āHigher performance video with better resolution and faster streaming is coming very soon.ā
ā¦ also it was running at about 25% CPU on my single core ancient AMD 2.5ghz thing which seems fine to me.

Just killed the browser here.

in javafx
but its not public api, its rather a implementation detail. Parts of the javafx runtime (scenegraph, effects framework?) require jogl which means it is prepopulated in webstart/applet cash. AFAIK it will be even downloaded automatically if you update to u11 via autoupdate.
ā¦ but still cool IMOā¦ one download less
Ouch! W2K: It downloaded for several minutes, asked for security clearance (for a videoplayer?) then it crashed Firefox. :-\
6u11 is still giving me unwanted console output in IE as well sigh
I think maybe they FXxxed upā¦
[EDIT]
If I run a java app (not applet) 6u11 tries to get through the firewall to the last webpage in FFs history - why it do dat? ???
I triedā¦

Congrats to the JavaFX team!
Ugh thoughā¦ First applet I tried took 2+ minutes to load, gave 2 trust dialogs AND a license acceptance dialog. And the software blur was painfully slow (well, it was a nice Gaussian blur, though). Video applet also took 2+ minutes, and gave 2 trust dialogs, turned my browser into a white rectangle, then played the audio but not the video. Then the server went down.
Well, mistake #1: they share the same release date as the much-longer-anticipated Python 3.0
Seriously though, congrats on your release, but I am pretty disappointed. This is definitely not even a contender in the Flash/Silverlight arena.
After checking out the demos, I discovered I get better performance from Java2D (the breakout demo was especially slow)
In summary: JavaFX feels like a bloated framework on top of an already bloated platform. The effects are impressive (in a non-animated museum gallery kind of way), the new coding style is nice, but ironically itās core problem is that it runs on the Java platform
If youāre going to reinvent a languageās coding style, and rehash the entire Graphics API, you might as well release it as a a completely separate platform, possibly aimed at the browser to compete with Flash/Silverlight
I knew it would happen one day, I already spoke about it in 2007.
If you download the SDK, you can get access to all the samples. On Mac the samples are buried in /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaFX.framework/Versions/1.0/samples
EDIT: only a few samples are there, actually. The javafx site had way more.
It is pretty ironic/tragic that the videos announcing the supposed Flash killer are served up in Flashā¦
Before javafx.com died it had a collection of javafx features/promotional videos served in javafx appletsā¦
Jonathan, could you start with java console opened and see if thereās something there?
I can run all of the demos fine (XP).
There are known issues with Media-related samples. Since 1.0 doesnāt have progressive download, and some operations are done from the EDT applications appear hung until the media is fully loaded.
Dmitri
so jfx1.0 is out, cool, have a play see what happens.
tip: remake the timeline if you want to edit it
Looks good.
But I donāt like my browser mostly freezing on all examples while it loads.
I have found a bug where the movable applet does not like being moved to a 2nd screen.
Are there any tools like blend for silverlight?
It completely crashed Opera: āNot respondingā in the titlebar.
In IE, it took quite a few minutes (!!) before the first Certificate popup was shown.
Having to wait that long is a serious problem, and having to click 2x OK to view a movie is horror-ish.
Finally I could watch the movie in IE, which was the first time sinceā¦ I messed with JMF for a bit.
Hey aNt, are those security popups a temporary thing for version 1.0? Seriously you guys got to get rid of those. Iām sure thereās a technical reason behind it, but to the end user it doesnāt make any sense. Imagine if YouTube popped up a security dialog every time a user wanted to watch a video.
