I am using the JpegImagesToMovie.java to convert images to a .mov file. I was wondering if there was anyway I could edit this to work with .png files as the quality of the video is not very good and changing it would improve it.
ImageIO.write(img, "png", new File("C:\\Users\\user\\Desktop\\tmp\\" + System.currentTimeMillis() + ".png"));
ImageIO.write(img, "jpeg", new File("C:\\Users\\user\\Desktop\\tmp\\" + System.currentTimeMillis() + ".png"));
ImageIO.write(img, "png", new File("C:\\Users\\user\\Desktop\\tmp\\" + System.currentTimeMillis() + ".jpeg"));
All three of those would produce a video (no errors through the program) but the video wouldn't play the images just open and finish.
I also tried editing the JpegImagesToMovie.java
if (!filePath.toLowerCase().endsWith(".png") && !filePath.toLowerCase().endsWith(".png")) {
continue;
But that didn't work, and I can't find anywhere else to edit. How can I get this to work with .png images?

Here is my updated JpegImagesToMovies class

Though a little late (since the question is already answered), and because coincidentally I have worked with ImageIO
in the past few days, I will just add here my answer. Especially the second part of how to make JpegImagesToMovie
to work with png files has not been answered and it might help someone else.
Double compression issue: As correctly identified by others, you are effectively compressing the JPEG image twice by using ImageIO.write()
. The ImageIO
is a utility class that based on the type of the file ("jpeg" in our case) chooses an appropriate ImageWriter
. It then constructs an ImageInputStream
and it passes it to the writer. Last it calls its write()
method. Pretty much what @meewoK does in his answer. However every ImageWriter
can take a ImageWriteParam
instance that configures its details. ImageIO
apparently cannot know what parameters each writer can accept, nor how it should be configured, so default settings are used. If you look at the source JPEGImageWriteParam
has a default quality factor of 0.75
, so you are effectively multiplying this factor with whatever quality used for the original file. (If it was 0.75 again, your final image has pretty much a 0.75 * 0.75 = 0.56
quality i.e. you lost the half of the original). Bottom line: Use ImageIO
for quick reads or writes but if more control is desired the recommended approach is to configure and use an ImageWriter
manually.
How to make JpegImagesToMovie
to work directly with PNG files: If you look at the source of that class all the work is done in its ImageSourceStream
inner class. What it does, is that it loads the bytes from the files (each file is a video frame) directly to a Processor
class that creates the video. Conveniently the Processor
knows how to handle JPEG format directly (look at the stream's constructor format = new VideoFormat(VideoFormat.JPEG, ...)
), so feeding it with the raw file data works as expected.
To make it work with PNG format though, just replacing the file suffix as per your approach is not enough. You need to convert the PNG data to a format that Processor
understands (i.e. to decode it). Below you can find a quick and dirty way to do that. Disclaimer: the approach below uses more memory since it loads the image in memory and it further manipulates it to convert it to a byte[]
. So performance-wise and memory-wise is worst. However if memory and speed is not a concern, it would allow you to work directly with PNG files.
Conversion steps:
a) With an editor search and replace the string values "jpeg", "jpg"
with "png"
. The original author has those values hard-coded and during your attempt you have missed some entries.
b) In the constructor of the ImageDataSource
replace the first line with the second one :
streams[0] = new ImageSourceStream(width, height, frameRate, images); // delete this line
streams[0] = new PngImageSourceStream(width, height, frameRate, images); // add this line
c) At the end of the class add the implementation of the new PngImageSourceStream
provided below.
You should now have a working copy of the original version that is able to read PNG files directly and convert them to a MOV video (Note: Not all players can play that new video because of the codec used. QuickTime and Media Player Classic worked ok for me)
Update 1: The original code of PngImageSourceStream
assumed a 32-bit PNG file, a restriction I forgot to mention. The version below is a second version that supports either 32-bit or 24-bit (i.e. with no alpha layer) images.
class PngImageSourceStream extends ImageSourceStream {
public PngImageSourceStream(int width, int height, int frameRate,
Vector<String> images) {
super(width, height, frameRate, images);
// configure the new format as RGB format
format = new RGBFormat(new Dimension(width, height),
Format.NOT_SPECIFIED, Format.byteArray, frameRate,
24, // 24 bits per pixel
1, 2, 3); // red, green and blue masks when data are in the form of byte[]
}
public void read(Buffer buf) throws IOException {
// Check if we've finished all the frames.
if (nextImage >= images.size()) {
// We are done. Set EndOfMedia.
System.err.println("Done reading all images.");
buf.setEOM(true);
buf.setOffset(0);
buf.setLength(0);
ended = true;
return;
}
String imageFile = (String) images.elementAt(nextImage);
nextImage++;
System.err.println(" - reading image file: " + imageFile);
// read the PNG image
BufferedImage image = ImageIO.read(new File(imageFile));
boolean hasAlpha = image.getColorModel().hasAlpha();
Dimension size = format.getSize();
// convert 32-bit RGBA to 24-bit RGB
byte[] imageData = convertTo24Bit(hasAlpha, image.getRaster().getPixels(0, 0, size.width, size.height, (int[]) null));
buf.setData(imageData);
System.err.println(" read " + imageData.length + " bytes.");
buf.setOffset(0);

}

// Note: the int[] returned by bufferedImage.getRaster().getPixels()
// is an int[]
// where each int is the value for one color i.e. the first 4 ints
// contain the RGBA values for the first pixel
int r = src[srcIndex];
int g = src[srcIndex + 1];
int b = src[srcIndex + 2];
out[outIndex] = (byte) (r & 0xFF);
out[outIndex + 1] = (byte) (g & 0xFF);
out[outIndex + 2] = (byte) (b & 0xFF);
}
private byte[] convertTo24Bit(boolean hasAlpha, int[] input) {
int dataLength = input.length;
int newSize = (hasAlpha ? dataLength * 3 / 4 : dataLength);
byte[] convertedData = new byte[newSize];
// for every 4 int values of the original array (RGBA) write 3
// bytes (RGB) to the output array
// if there is no alpha (i.e. RGB image) then just convert int to byte
for (int i = 0, j = 0; i < dataLength; i += 3, j += 3) {
convertIntByteToByte(input, i, convertedData, j);
if (hasAlpha) {
i++; // skip an extra byte if the original image has an
// extra int for transparency
}
}
return convertedData;
}
}
Set the JPEG compression level1 to a higher quality. This will result in a larger file size, but should fix the problem of quality.
But encode them only as:
ImageIO.write(img, "jpg", new File("..." + ".jpg"));
Compile and run the code in the linked answer, drag the Slider
on the left up and down to see the result of that compression level in the JPEG (bottom/3rd image). The text area at the bottom will show the size in bytes at that level of 'quality'. The quality is inverse to the compression, and as you might notice from the images the JPEG at %80 quality is not only a bit 'murky', but is already significantly larger in bytes than the PNG.
Then have a careful look at the code, especially:
private Image getJpegCompressedImage(BufferedImage image) throws IOException {
float qualityFloat = (float)quality.getValue()/100f;
ByteArrayOutputStream outStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ImageWriter imgWriter = ImageIO.getImageWritersByFormatName( "jpg" ).next();
ImageOutputStream ioStream = ImageIO.createImageOutputStream( outStream );
imgWriter.setOutput( ioStream );
JPEGImageWriteParam jpegParams = new JPEGImageWriteParam( Locale.getDefault() );
jpegParams.setCompressionMode( ImageWriteParam.MODE_EXPLICIT );
jpegParams.setCompressionQuality( qualityFloat ); // Set the compression level
imgWriter.write( null, new IIOImage( image, null, null ), jpegParams );
ioStream.flush();
ioStream.close();
imgWriter.dispose();
jpgSize = outStream.toByteArray().length;
BufferedImage compressedImage = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(outStream.toByteArray()));
return compressedImage;
}
