	>> java -jar VIDIVOX_izhu678_rlee291.jar
	
5. A prompt should appear for you to choose a video.

Explanation of Features:

Overlaying Audio with Video
This video player allows the user to add audio commentary onto top of the currently playing video.
To do this, the user can type out their commentary in the text area on the right of the screen under "Commentary here:"

[Speak]:
To preview what the commentary will sound like in the video, clicking [Speak] will play the audio.

[Stop]:
To stop hearing the commentary played by [Speak], [Stop] will stop the audio.
Note: It will take a small delay to stop the audio from "speaking".

[Save as MP3]:
This will save the commentary into the folder "MP3Files" which is in the current folder the jar file is in.
The user can choose to name this file.

[Merge With MP3]:
This will merge any .mp3 file chosen by the user and merge it with the currently playing video.
It will first prompt the user to choose the .mp3 file they want to merge with the video.
Then it will ask the user to name their output video and then prompt the user to choose if they want to play the newly merged video after it is made.

**Caution** 
 - It is not recommended to overlay audio to a video file that has already been merged by VIDIVOX.


Further Options:
In the current folder, 'Overlaying Audio with Video' produces 3 intermediate files, all of which are hidden in MP3Files.
	sound.wav: MP3Files
	vidAudio.mp3: MP3Files
	output.mp3: MP3Files
