I have developed one desktop application using swing under which i have used JavaFx components, i have a few camera which i drag to the 2*2 layout view, it's working fine, now as soon as i changed the layout from 2*2 to 4*4, the view gets changed, then later on the dragged camera remain same on the canvas, but the streaming coming from the camera initially stops and then starts, i just want the video stream coming from the camera to remain consistent, without restarting it, what i have did now, is to release the Media player , Created the updated Canvas and Add it into the panel, but i guess it's not a proper solution, can anyone help me out with this issue, thanks well in advance. Any kind of help is highly appreciable.
You can not remove the media player Canvas from the frame component hierarchy, nor can you hide it.
You must do something else like minimise it's size to 0,0 use a custom layout manager and move it's position to 0,0 or -1,-1 may work.
To emulate hiding, you could use a CardLayout with a video view and a blank view and switch between them.
There's an example in the vlcj test sources that shows one approach: https://github.com/caprica/vlcj/blob/master/src/test/java/uk/co/caprica/vlcj/test/layout/AdaptiveLayoutTest.java
