Animated GIF: retain transparency without ghosting - java

In trying to make an animated GIF from an image with transparency this code is producing a ghosting effect from the earlier image frames.
Image of 3rd frame, which shows the first two frames beneath the final frame
How can the code be altered to produce a 'clean' animated image for all frames?
Note: The code uses two methods, written by GeoffTitmus & Maxideon, that were formerly on the Oracle forums site. The links I first saw referenced in the code (in the JavaDocs section) have long since disappeared, so were removed. Other than that, only a few JavaDoc warnings were corrected, otherwise they are exactly as found from around the internet or as used in my older code projects.

To combine my comments:
What you see, merely is the soft mask of the image which contains transparency information, white = opaque, black = transparent. The base image actually is all black but only where the mask indicates opaque, that image black is drawn. Thus it looks like reversed.
You can use image manipulation libraries to invert a bitmap. Simply googl'ing for "imageio invert image" returns this, this, and numerous other interesting matches.

How to make a high quality screenshot?

I capture screenshots using the BufferedImage but when I get the picture it showed in a bad quality.
Here's my code:
Rectangle screenShot=new Rectangle(graphPanel.getX()+this.getX()+5,
graphPanel.getY()+this.getY()+navPanel.getHeight()+4,
graphPanel.getWidth(), graphPanel.getHeight());
BufferedImage capture=new Robot().createScreenCapture(screenShot);
ImageIO.write(capture, "jpg",new File("./PDFs/test"+"Graph"+".png"));
ImageIO.write(capture, "jpg",new File("./PDFs/test"+"Graph"+".png"));
Should be:
ImageIO.write(capture, "png",new File("./PDFs/test"+"Graph"+".png"));
Calling an image a PNG in the file extension won't make it a PNG. It also needs to be encoded as a PNG.
[I] did [change] it, but no result
What output do you get for this code? Here I get:
type: jpg Color difference: 926283 or 0.7852198282877604%.
type: png Color difference: 0 or 0.0%.

The Image size saved on the disk is different than what is being displayed [closed]

Closed. This question needs debugging details. It is not currently accepting answers.
Edit the question to include desired behavior, a specific problem or error, and the shortest code necessary to reproduce the problem. This will help others answer the question.
Closed 8 years ago.

Here the Image size displayed in jpegLabel label variable is different from what is being saved on the disk . I want the size of the image saved on the disk to be of same size which is being displayed .
Reference to the Question : Need Java function that takes image and imagesize(in Kb) as input and return an image
The problem is here:
BufferedImage img = (BufferedImage)getJpegCompressedImage(originalImage);
File outputfile = new File("C:/Users/uday/Desktop/newImage.jpg");
ImageIO.write(img, "jpg", outputfile);
..when using the ImageIO class that way, it ignores whatever compression has been applied to the image and saves it using standard compression! The trick to saving the compressed image is to change the getJpegCompressedImage method to saveJpegCompressedImage, and instead of returning an Image it should declare void and save the byte[] directly to disk (using standard I/O).
E.G. as seen in this example:
Original image (unknown compression)
As seen in Example images for code and mark-up Q&As.
Saved as quality .2 (6,327 bytes)
Saved as quality .8 (18,702 bytes)

Ok, i compile the code and run the program the image appears as it should in the center of the screen. I put the dimensions in the JTextFields and press the resize button. Everything works fine. Now if i close the window and run again the image appears but if i press the resize button the first time it dissapears, if i press it again it appears and everything works fine.
Only if i compile the code while the window is running and run i don;t have that minor issue.
Anyone has any clues of what is hapening?

}
At the first time getImage is called, im wasn't really loaded. When drawImage is called, AWT started to load the image in another thread. It didn't block until the image is loaded. And, because drawImage thinks that the image wasn't complete loaded, it didn't to anything.
At the second time getImage is called, im has been loaded because AWT will automatically cache the image, so everything work fine.
Solution: MediaTracker
public void resize_image(int w, int h) {
Image im = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(IMG_PATH);
waitForImage(im);
/* ... */
g.drawImage(im, 0, 0, w, h, null);
/* ... */

GIF animation plays extremely fast in JFrame

Issue: GIF plays extremely fast.
Question: How do I make sure that GIF plays at a normal speed?
As for GIF speed playback - I've encountered this problem too. If I remember correctly this was caused by the "default" (or not provided?) value for frame rate in GIF file. Some web browsers "overrided" that frame rate so that GIF played correctly.
As a result I created a class that converts GIF (read GIF -> write GIF) and give frame rate provided by the user. com.madgag.gif.fmsware.AnimatedGifEncoder class is an external library that I link to the project via Maven: animated-gif-lib-1.0.jar
public final class GIFUtils {
private GIFUtils() {
}
public static List<BufferedImage> extractFrames(String filePath) throws IOException {
return extractFrames(new File(filePath));
}
public static List<BufferedImage> extractFrames(File file) throws IOException {
List<BufferedImage> imgs = new LinkedList<BufferedImage>();
ImageReader reader = ImageIO.getImageReadersBySuffix("GIF").next();
ImageInputStream in = null;
try {
in = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
reader.setInput(in);
BufferedImage img = null;
int count = reader.getNumImages(true);
for(int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
Node tree = reader.getImageMetadata(i).getAsTree("javax_imageio_gif_image_1.0");
int x = Integer.valueOf(tree.getChildNodes().item(0).getAttributes()
.getNamedItem("imageLeftPosition").getNodeValue());
int y = Integer.valueOf(tree.getChildNodes().item(0).getAttributes()
.getNamedItem("imageTopPosition").getNodeValue());
BufferedImage image = reader.read(i);
if(img == null) {
img = new BufferedImage(image.getWidth() + x, image.getHeight() + y,
BufferedImage.TYPE_4BYTE_ABGR);
}
Graphics2D g = img.createGraphics();
ImageUtils.setBestRenderHints(g);
g.drawImage(image, x, y, null);
imgs.add(ImageUtils.copy(img));
}
}
finally {
if(in != null) {
in.close();
}
}
return imgs;
}
public static void writeGif(List<BufferedImage> images, File gifFile, int millisForFrame)
throws FileNotFoundException, IOException {
BufferedImage firstImage = images.get(0);
int type = firstImage.getType();
ImageOutputStream output = new FileImageOutputStream(gifFile);
// create a gif sequence with the type of the first image, 1 second
// between frames, which loops continuously
GifSequenceWriter writer = new GifSequenceWriter(output, type, 100, false);
// write out the first image to our sequence...
writer.writeToSequence(firstImage);
for(int i = 1; i < images.size(); i++) {
BufferedImage nextImage = images.get(i);
writer.writeToSequence(nextImage);
}
writer.close();
output.close();
}
public static Image createGif(List<BufferedImage> images, int millisForFrame) {
AnimatedGifEncoder g = new AnimatedGifEncoder();
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream(5 * 1024 * 1024);
g.start(out);
g.setDelay(millisForFrame);
g.setRepeat(1);
for(BufferedImage i : images) {
g.addFrame(i);
}
g.finish();
byte[] bytes = out.toByteArray();
return Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(bytes);
}
And GifSequenceWriter looks like this:
public class GifSequenceWriter {
protected ImageWriter gifWriter;
protected ImageWriteParam imageWriteParam;
protected IIOMetadata imageMetaData;
public GifSequenceWriter(ImageOutputStream outputStream, int imageType, int timeBetweenFramesMS,
boolean loopContinuously) throws IIOException, IOException {
gifWriter = getWriter();
imageWriteParam = gifWriter.getDefaultWriteParam();
ImageTypeSpecifier imageTypeSpecifier = ImageTypeSpecifier.createFromBufferedImageType(imageType);
imageMetaData = gifWriter.getDefaultImageMetadata(imageTypeSpecifier, imageWriteParam);
String metaFormatName = imageMetaData.getNativeMetadataFormatName();
IIOMetadataNode root = (IIOMetadataNode) imageMetaData.getAsTree(metaFormatName);
IIOMetadataNode graphicsControlExtensionNode = getNode(root, "GraphicControlExtension");
graphicsControlExtensionNode.setAttribute("disposalMethod", "none");
graphicsControlExtensionNode.setAttribute("userInputFlag", "FALSE");
graphicsControlExtensionNode.setAttribute("transparentColorFlag", "FALSE");
graphicsControlExtensionNode.setAttribute("delayTime", Integer.toString(timeBetweenFramesMS / 10));
graphicsControlExtensionNode.setAttribute("transparentColorIndex", "0");
IIOMetadataNode commentsNode = getNode(root, "CommentExtensions");
commentsNode.setAttribute("CommentExtension", "Created by MAH");
IIOMetadataNode appEntensionsNode = getNode(root, "ApplicationExtensions");
IIOMetadataNode child = new IIOMetadataNode("ApplicationExtension");
child.setAttribute("applicationID", "NETSCAPE");
child.setAttribute("authenticationCode", "2.0");
int loop = loopContinuously ? 0 : 1;
child.setUserObject(new byte[] { 0x1, (byte) (loop & 0xFF), (byte) (loop >> 8 & 0xFF) });
appEntensionsNode.appendChild(child);
imageMetaData.setFromTree(metaFormatName, root);
gifWriter.setOutput(outputStream);
gifWriter.prepareWriteSequence(null);
}
public void writeToSequence(RenderedImage img) throws IOException {
gifWriter.writeToSequence(new IIOImage(img, null, imageMetaData), imageWriteParam);
}
public void close() throws IOException {
gifWriter.endWriteSequence();
}
private static ImageWriter getWriter() throws IIOException {
Iterator<ImageWriter> iter = ImageIO.getImageWritersBySuffix("gif");
if(!iter.hasNext()) {
throw new IIOException("No GIF Image Writers Exist");
}
return iter.next();
}
private static IIOMetadataNode getNode(IIOMetadataNode rootNode, String nodeName) {
int nNodes = rootNode.getLength();
for(int i = 0; i < nNodes; i++) {
if(rootNode.item(i).getNodeName().compareToIgnoreCase(nodeName) == 0) {
return (IIOMetadataNode) rootNode.item(i);
}
}
IIOMetadataNode node = new IIOMetadataNode(nodeName);
rootNode.appendChild(node);
return node;
}
}
The easiest fix for this problem is to just create a .gif file which is "well-formed", i.e. contains the appropriate frame rate. This can be achieved with the help of various online converters, just google "gif speed changer".
