Prologue
I was tasked with creating an endpoint in a Java backend project that concatenates multiple video files and returns the output. However, I encountered a NullPointerException at runtime when using the MovieBuilder class. This issue stemmed from the input stream being null, which was caused by calling the system class loader in a web container (as discussed in this Stack Overflow thread).
About this Pull Request
This pull request addresses the issue by replacing the usage of the system class loader with the regular class loader, similar to the approach taken a few lines further down in the code. This change has been tested and works as expected both in our web container and in a local Java project environment.
