java.lang.Object
uk.co.caprica.vlcj.player.embedded.videosurface.VideoSurface
uk.co.caprica.vlcj.player.embedded.videosurface.DeferredComponentIdVideoSurface
public abstract class DeferredComponentIdVideoSurface extends VideoSurface
Encapsulation of a video surface that wraps the native component id of the video surface component - the component id is obtained when needed via a template method.

This is required for example when using remote out-of-process media players but with video rendering in a local application. In these scenarios, it is not possible to serialize the Canvas component to the remote process to get the proper component ID (the copied Canvas component would have a different native ID).

It is also not possible to get a native component ID if the component is not displayable.
