I've considered replacing JMF, but must admit it's a low priority.   
All of the JMF facilities are entirely encapuslated in MovieEncoder  
and MovieMaker so it should be pretty easy to swap another one in if  
you wanted to look into it.

This message is generated when the Console attempts to find all the  
classes in the simulation.classes file and it can't.  Usually the  
reason it can't is because the 3D classes weren't compiled.  In your  
case it's because you deleted them.  So just go into that file and  
remove the 3D demo examples (including Tutorials 6 and 7 I think).
