I decided after installing the JMF library that it is really not worth the bother. The framework has not been supported by Sun for years, the .jar files are dated from 2003. The installation method is broken, it all has to be done by hand using the Linux Terminal, and the library needs to then be installed into Netbeans, and still the diagnostic tool on the Oracle site does not recognize the installation.
Sun and Oracle came out with JavaFX in 2008, which is supported on the Linux platform. It is more a scripting language, although it does support full Java. IT also runs on mobile platforms. JavaFX sounds like the way to go at present.
