Find the jar that contains this MJPG resource bundle and make sure it
is on the classpath, i.e. in the ext directory.

see http://mindprod.com/products1.html#JARLOOK

will help you find it.

   You cannot catch this exception using the technique above. It's being
thrown in a different thread from the one in which the catch statement
occurs. Did you notice that your method, startPlayer(), is not even
mentioned in the stack trace?

<SSCCE>
import sun.reflect.generics.reflectiveObjects.NotImplementedException;

public class ThreadExceptionTest {
 public static void main(String args[]) {
   Thread thread = new Thread() {

     @Override
     public void run() {
       throw new NotImplementedException();
     }

   };

   try {
     thread.run();
   } catch (Throwable throwable) {
     System.out.println("Gotcha from run!");
   }

   try {
     thread.start();
   } catch (Throwable throwable) {
     System.out.println("Gotcha from start!");
   }
 }
}
</SSCCE>

   If you try to run this code, you'll notice that you can catch the first
throwable, but not the second.

   What you can do is try to wrap your player in your own thread. Something
like:

void startPlayer(){
 player = Manager.createRealizedPlayer(new java.net.URL(url));
 Thread thread = new Thread() {
   run() {
     try {
       player.run();
     } catch(java.util.MissingResourceException rr) {
       System.out.println("Missing Resource");
       return;
     }

   }
 }
}

   This assumes that player.start() has not been overridden, depending on
what class player actually is (I assume it's a subclass of Thread).
