title: JMF in a web-application on Tomcat
body: <p>I created a web application that is using Java Media Framework. It runs in my unit tests and successfully finds the capturing devices. However when I deploy my application to Tomcat the same method returns an empty list of Capturing devices as if Tomcat is missing something that helps JMF to find media devices. </p>
  
  <p>I suspect jmf.jar cannot find native dll's of JMF package, which somehow are visible in Eclipse but are not visible when application is deployed to Tomcat.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone give a hint how to deploy jmf correctly?</p>
  
  <p>As example: this application <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/webjmf/" rel="nofollow">http://sourceforge.net/projects/webjmf/</a> claims that it is working, however when war file is deployed to my Tomcat it cannot find any capturing devices.</p>
