Hello..

I am developing a graphics application. I am playing a video in my application and when I press any key , it should stop currently playing video and should start displaying other images.Everything went well except when I press any key the video is getting stopped but
the screen is not getting repainted..(i.e the screen turns into black and stucks)

I thought that repaint() method is not working and but the fault is not with repaint method.
When I test the repaint method with sample code, its working but when i test the same method with my original code its not getting executed.. I am thinking that the fault is in way of
stopping the video and painting the screen again..

Any suggestions..

Without seeing your code how can we comment?

calls to repaint should cause a later call to paintComponent?
Is paintComponent being called?
Add printlns to show call to repaint and call to paintComponent.

That looks like a black window to me!

This is about as dumb a thing as its possible to do in Java. You are saying "if anything goes wrong in my program detect it, diagnose it, document it, then throw all that away and don't tell me"
Before wasting another minute on this, put an e.printStackTrace(); in every catch block and see what results that gives.

There's no code in paint() method because there is no requirement.

I am not worried about exceptions here in this case since it has no complex code to throw
such Heavy Exceptions ..
However ..
The only point is that code in keyTyped() method is not updating the components to window .

This code not working

Why is it NOT working? Does it throw an Exception?
See James's recommendations.

What happens if you copy the statements that are not working to another place and execute them without having to wait on keyTyped?

There's no code in paint() method because there is no requirement.

So you have a JFrame ibut there's no requirement to paint it or any of its components.

I am not worried about exceptions here in this case since it has no complex code to throw such Heavy Exceptions ..

AFAIK there's only one "weight" for Exceptions and that is "heavy", as in "your code could not be executed". It doesn't take much complexity to generate a null pointer exception, for example.

There's none so blind as those who will not see.
Good luck with your program.
