Xuggler could not open output url error

I've been following the simple video tutorial on youtube Xuggler. I've made sure that an existing file path is in the argument. However I still get the following error:

15:15:44.339 [main] DEBUG com.xuggle.xuggler - Could not open output url: *thefilepath (../../../../../../../csrc/com/xuggle/xuggler/Container.cpp:436)

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not open at myproject1.MediaPlayer.main(MediaPlayer.java:23) Java Result: 1

My code is below:

public class MediaPlayer {

public static void main (String[] args) {
    if(args.length != 1)
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("no file");
    IContainer container = IContainer.make();
    System.out.println("args: " + args[0]);

    if(container.open(args[0], IContainer.Type.READ, null) < 0) {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("Could not open");
    }

}

}

Solution

  • Cause Could be un-availability of dependency jars or version conflicts.

    Adding the following jars in the classpath worked fine for me:

    xuggle-xuggler-5.4.jar
    slf4j-api-1.6.4.jar
    logback-core-1.0.0.jar
    logback-classic-1.0.0.jar
