My first question is why? What would this application do that Avidemux, Handbrake, Virtualdub, VLC or the rest of the bunch don't already do? Have you thought C++ & Qt. Personally I use Python & Qt and it works quite well cross platform. The only other widget set I really like is wxWidgets. But I'm probably biased because both of these support python and that's usually how I interact with them. (You can use sip or swig to generate python, java or ruby bindings) I have yet to see a desktop Java interface that appealing to the eyes (not saying it's not possible, I just haven't seen one). GTK also seems a reasonable choice. Have look at Code:Blocks http://www.codeblocks.org/ and Anjuta http://anjuta.org/ I don't see why you couldn't go cross-platform, maybe it's more work...
