I am learning Xuggler(a library supports video streaming for Java) by following the code in a tutorial teaching how to decode and play video.
I supposed this snippet of code is reliable, but when I want to play the video read on my window, I got the error telling me
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: got error decoding video in: C:/Users/swnmlab/1.mp4
This error happens when this line got executed
int bytesDecoded = videoCoder.decodeVideo(picture, packet,offset);
I used debugger to step into and find that xuggle-xuggler.jar has no source attachment, does anyone has encountered this problem before?

P.S. If you want to try this library, you can find the installing file here, and then follow the steps on this page finish installing this library on Windows.
I found the error happened because I cahnged the original code
if (videoCoder.open() < 0)
throw new RuntimeException(
"could not open video decoder for container: " + filename);
to
if (videoCoder.acquire() < 0)
throw new RuntimeException(
"could not open video decoder for container: " + filename);
since open() method causes deprecation warning, so I used auto complete to find a method that looks like open(), then changed to acquire(). I thought that was OK since no "could not open video decoder for container: " exception thrown out.So just follow the sample code.
I went through your code and found that you obtained a videoCoder, but you didn't open it before playing. Maybe that is why you couldn't decode it. So could you please have a try?
if (videoCoder.open() < 0)
throw new RuntimeException(
"could not open video decoder for container: "
+ filename);
IVideoResampler resampler = null;
