Has anyone done any work on using JNA to play mp3's? I know gstreamer's java binding uses JNA but that project is over two years old and seems to be stuck in the mud. In addition gstreamer isn't really cross platform.

gstreamer is cross-platform as long as you consider "cross-platform" to mean both ubuntu and fedora :-) (its getting better on macosx and windows, but I couldn't get either to play xvid).

The two-year old, abandoned gst-java project doesn't use JNA, it uses a rather large mess of hand-written JNI code. It is also targeted towards gstreamer-0.8.

My project at http://code.google.com/p/gstreamer-java/ which I haven't gotten around to actually doing a 0.1 release for, uses JNA, and supports enough of gstreamer 0.10 to play audio/video on linux.

If you want something truly cross-platform just to play mp3 files, look at the javazoom jlayer library.
