private String VIDEO_URL = getClass().getResource("C:\\Users\\Victor\\Videos\\amostra.mp4").toString();


    public static void main(String[] args) {
  launch(); // 2
 }

 @Override
 public void start(Stage palco) throws Exception {

  Media media = new Media(VIDEO_URL); // 1
  MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(media); // 2
  MediaView mediaView = new MediaView(mediaPlayer); // 3

  StackPane raiz = new StackPane();
  raiz.getChildren().add(mediaView); // 4
  Scene cena = new Scene(raiz, 600, 400);
  palco.setTitle("Tocando Video em JavaFX");
  palco.setScene(cena);
  palco.show();

  mediaPlayer.play(); // 4
 }

mas ele exibe o erro:

a linha 24 seria a:
private String VIDEO_URL = getClass().getResource("C:\\Users\\Victor\\Videos\\amostra.mp4").toString();

o que pode ser?

Se vc quer pegar a URL, não precisa fazer dessa forma, basta atribuir a URL na variável:

String VIDEO_URL = "c:\\Users\\Victor\\Videos\\amostra.mp4";

Agora, se o arquivo do vídeo estiver dentro do seu projeto, vc tem que fazer da forma como vc fez, porém, utilizando o caminho relativo.

eu pensei na mesma coisa mas ainda dá o mesmo erro, eu tentei colocar a URL direto no Media e não funcionou e apresentou o mesmo erro

Tenta assim
pivate String VIDEO_URL = "file:///C:/Users/Victor/Videos/amostra.mp4";
