What library can I use to encode video in a Java Applet? -

I would like to record a user's interaction as a video in my Java applet (potentially stream) my server Intention to upload YouTube to YouTube (or similar) does not require a high frame-rate (one second frame per second is enough)

Used to reduce the bandwidth used, so sending JPG snapshots to server and server-encoding is my last resort.

Is there a lightweight Java Video Encoding Library available, which does not require the original code?

I'm new to Java so do not take it seriously :)

I think Java is a good start with video encoding. I have not tried to do this, so I do not know what they are supporting on FLV encoding.

Since flash media server is commercial, can not you use it? You will have a SDF, not an applet, but you will get a wider percentage of viewers because the Flash Player is very broad.

And Alex is a good issue, because you need to upload a video to YouTube, why do not they use the API?
