Never heard of the Java Media Framework then?

I used it extensively when at Sun, but only as an end-user.  It's codec

Bear in mind that a lot of ISV's obfuscate their Java bytecode quite 
heavily, to avoid reverse engineering.  In those cases it is typically 
_very_ hard to RE the source.  There are a number of free and commercial 
tools used for this obfuscation task.
