How to capture video using JMF, but without installing JMF

A videoconferencing project I was working on used JMF to capture video and audio, and transmit it to another endpoint. An issue was that my team didn't want the user of the product to have to install JMF.

I thought it might be worthwhile to share our solution to this problem. It works. It works well. My question to you is: does anyone have a better way to do it?

Environment: Windows, XP and above

1. Download JMF for Windows

2. Install it on your machine

3. Locate the following dlls in the system32 folder after jmf installs:

   jmacm.dll
   jmam.dll
   jmcvid.dll
   jmdaud.dll
   jmdaudc.dll
   jmddraw.dll
   jmfjawt.dll
   jmg723.dll
   jmgdi.dll
   jmgsm.dll
   jmh261.dll
   jmh263enc.dll
   jmjpeg.dll
   jmmci.dll
   jmmpa.dll
   jmmpegv.dll
   jmutil.dll
   jmvcm.dll
   jmvfw.dll
   jmvh263.dll
   jsound.dll

4. Copy the dlls into a temporary folder

5. Locate the jmf.properties file (Do a search on your computer for it)
6. Download the JMF source code
   In the source code, find the following files:

JMFinit.java
JMRPropertiesGen.java
Registry.java
RegistryGen.java

1. Create a package; I'll call it JMFNoInstall
2. Add the files listed in step 6
3. Add a class called Main to this package as such:

package JMFNoInstall;
// add your imports and whatnot here
public class Main()
{
    public Main()
    {
        JMFinit.main(null);
        JMFPropertiesGen.main(null);
        Registry.main(null);
        RegistryGen.main(new String[] {
            new File(".").getAbsolutePath(),
            "registrylib"
        });
    }
}

The jmf.properties file needs to go in the same folder as the class that has your main method or the same folder as the JAR archive that contains the main
