MediaPlayer in JavaFX

I am concerned with the fact that JavaFX has suffered some modifications since the day of this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWl98dhvf8Q .

Please, give me some hints for what should I change in this code, or is this kind of code valid, at all? Thank you.

Here's the code:

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.media.Media;
import javafx.scene.media.MediaPlayer;
import javafx.scene.media.MediaView;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Group;


public class BiPlayer extends Application {

    public static void main(String[] args){

        launch(args);

    }

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
        Group videoPane = new Group();

        Media media = new Media("C:\\Users\\Insanovation\\Downloads\\P.mp4");
        MediaPlayer player = new MediaPlayer(media);
        MediaView view = new MediaView(player);

        videoPane.getChildren().add(view);
        Scene scene = new Scene (videoPane, 400, 400, Color.BLACK);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();

        player.play();
    }
}

Here's the output:

Looking at the exception that you've copied and pasted, it's clear that the exception thrown is a URISyntaxException. It then lists the problem character, which is at index 2 (the backslash character).

If you look into the documentation of URIs here and here, you'll see that only forward slashes are acceptable in URIs. If you changed the backslashes in your path to forward slashes like so:

file:C:/Users/Insanovation/Downloads/F.mp4

I believe it should work.
