Criticisms: mention jmflite in the RI
Line 10:
 
==Criticisms==
While the framework is general, Sun currently provides support only on [[Java Platform, Micro Edition]]. The framework is quite general but for some subjects, such as media locators, it is in effect superseded by other locator standards on platforms such as [[BD-J]].

Another point of confusion is that in platforms supported as of 2008, examples such as the SvcDispXlet example in this [http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/javatv/apiintro/ online introduction] to Java TV circa 2001 are still not deployable because it uses AWT widgets such as java.awt.Button . Most such platforms and BD-J implement Personal Basis Profile with no AWT widgets, as opposed to Personal Profile which includes the widgets.
 
Even Sun's reference implementation for Java TV attempts to limit its exposure to support issues to the full [[Java Media Framework]] by having its own small version of JMF that it internally refers to as "jmflite".
