Compositing(image and movie) in Java

[alex_ge]

I would like to do some compositing in Java. Currently I'm using QuickTime for Java to do it. It is very easy. However I always get some runtime exception when I execute the program. So I want to switch to pure Java. I want to play a movie as the background, probably using JMF. Then do some animation with some images and text in front of the movie. Is this possible? Any advice or sample program?

Thanks in advance.
