How to convert Bystream Video to file video in java - java

I'm build a project to convert video to byte stream, doing some encryption, and convert agaian stream that have been encrypting into video file. I am using mpeg video..
Anybody know how to convert from byte stream to file video? in case, mpeg file...thanks before

To convert a file into a byte stream, simply open it using FileInputStream.
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream ("filename.mov");
You'll probably want to buffer it as video files are quite large
BufferedInputStream bis = new BufferedInputStream (fis);
To write out the file, simply open it using FileOutputStream:
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream ("fileout.mov");
and then write to it using the FileOutputStream.

How to convert InputStream to a PDF in Java, without damaging the file?

I have an InputStream which I would like to convert to a PDF, and save that PDF in a directory. Currently, my code is able to convert the InputStream to a PDF and the PDF does show up in the correct directory. However, when I try to open it, the file is damaged.
Here is the current code:
InputStream pAdESStream = signingServiceConnector.getDirectClient().getPAdES(this.statusReader.getStatusResponse().getpAdESUrl());
byte[] buffer = new byte[pAdESStream.available()];
pAdESStream.read(buffer);
File targetFile = new File(System.getProperty("user.dir") + "targetFile2.pdf");
OutputStream outStream = new FileOutputStream(targetFile);
outStream.write(buffer);
Originally, the InputStream was a pAdES-file (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAdES). However, it should be able to be read as just a regular PDF.
Does anyone know how to convert the InputStream to a PDF, without getting a damaged PDF as a result?
Hello it might be a bit late but you can use PDFBOX api (or itextpdf)

Need to convert AssetInputStream to FileInputStream

I have implemented a data structure which is working on my computer and now I am trying to port it into my android application. I open a raw .dat resource and get a InputStream but I need to get a FileInputStream:
FileInputStream fip = (FileInputStream) context.getResources().openRawResource(fileID);
FileChannel fc = fip.getChannel();
long bytesSizeOfFileChannel = fc.size();
MappedByteBuffer mbb = fc.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0L, bytesSizeOfFileChannel);
...
The code above throws the following exception since an InputStream can not be cast to a FileInputStream but that's just what I need:
java.lang.ClassCastException: android.content.res.AssetManager$AssetInputStream cannot be cast to java.io.FileInputStream
All my code is build on using this FileChannel with a FileInputStream so I want to keep using it. Is there a way to go from having an InputStream from context.getResources().openRawResource(fileID) and then convert it into a FileChannel?
Somewhat relevant posts in which I could not find a working solution for my case which android:

Using FileChannel to write any InputStream?
A resource isn't a file. Ergo it can't be used as a memory-mapped file. If you have resources that are so enormous they need to be memory-mapped, they probably shouldn't be resources at all. And if they are small, memory mapping brings no advantages.
This might be late, but i think you can indirectly get a FileInputStream from an InputStream. what i suggest is this: get the input stream from resource, then create a temp file,get a FileOutputStream from it. read the InputStream and copy it to FileOutputStream.
now the temp file has the contents of your resource file, and now you can create a FileInputStream from this file.
I don't know if this particular solution is useful to you, but i think it can be used in other situations.
As an example, if your file is in the assets folder, you get an InputStream and then a FileInputStream using this method:
InputStream is=getAssets().open("video.3gp");
File tempfile=File.createTempFile("tempfile",".3gp",getDir("filez",0));
FileOutputStream os=newFileOutputStream(tempfile);
byte[] buffer=newbyte[16000];
int length=0;
while((length=is.read(buffer))!=-1){
os.write(buffer,0,length);
}
FileInputStream fis=new FileInputStream(tempfile);

Read hidden zip file

I have a jpeg, and on the end of it I wrote a zip file.
Inside this zip file is a single txt file called hidden.txt. I can change the extension to zip and read the file just fine on my laptop (debian) but when I try to read it using either a ZipInputStream or using ZipFile I get an error telling me it's not a zip file.
I tried separating the jpg part out first by reading the whole thing to a Bitmap then writing that to a byte[], however the byte[] encompassed more than just the image.
My method to combine the bitmap and the zipFile (a byte[])
private byte[] combineFiles(Bitmap drawn, byte[] zip) throws
IOException {
InputStream in;
ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
/*write the first file*/
byte[] img;
ByteArrayOutputStream byteArrayOutputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
drawn.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 100, byteArrayOutputStream);
img = byteArrayOutputStream.toByteArray();
in = new ByteArrayInputStream(img);
IOUtils.copy(in, out);
in.close();
/*add the second (hidden) file*/
in = new ByteArrayInputStream(zip);
IOUtils.copy(in, out);
out.flush();
in.close();
return out.toByteArray();
}
So really I have two questions,
How do I separate the jpg and zip portions of the file?
How do I unzip hidden.txt (preferably into a byte[])
fairly certain I know this one, but what I am doing currently does not work, probably because I am doing #1 wrong
Ok, well here's how I would do this. Although it's very hacky.
The problem is that it's hard to tell the index of the boundary between the image data and the zip data. Assuming that you can write arbitrary data after the image data and still have a working image file, here is something you could try:
write out the image data.
write out a magical string like "BEGIN_ZIP"
write out the zip data.
Now, when you are trying to read things back in:
byte[] data = readAllTheBytes();
int index = searchFor("BEGIN_ZIP", data) + "BEGIN_ZIP".length();
// now you know that the zip data begins at index and goes to the end of the byte array
// so just use a regular zipinputstream to read in the zip data.
In JPEG file 0xFF, 0xD8 sequence of bytes indicates start of image and 0xFF, 0xD9 sequence of bytes indicates end of image JPEG Structure Wikipedia. So simply search for the latter sequence in file and you will be able to separate image and zip parts. Then use ZipInputStream to read (decompress) the data from zip file.

Problems with encrypt and decrypt

I'm trying to write code in Java that will encrypt file. I had used example from this site:
http://www.avajava.com/tutorials/lessons/how-do-i-encrypt-and-decrypt-files-using-des.html
Everything works fine but I need code that will overwrite original file with encrypted one. I'd changed only this:
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("original.txt");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("original.txt");
encrypt(key, fis, fos);
FileInputStream fis2 = new FileInputStream("original.txt");
FileOutputStream fos2 = new FileOutputStream("original.txt");
Encryption works, but after decryption decrypted file is empty.
Can someone explain me what's the problem and how to solve it?
Thanks !
You shouldn't read and overwrite the same file simultaneously with FileInputStream and FileOutputStream. Often, you'll get lucky, but the behavior is going to vary based on the underlying system, and that's not good. Instead, write to a temporary file, then move the temporary file to the location of the original file.

Compressing content in Java without file I/O

I would like to perform repeated compression task for CPU profiling without doing any file I/O but strictly reading a byte stream. I want to do this in Java (target of my benchmark).
Does anyone have a suggestion how to do this?
I used Zip API that uses ZipEntry but ZipEntry triggers file I/O.
Any suggestions or code samples are highly appreciated.

I wouldn't expect it to if you use a ByteArrayOutputStream as the underlying output:
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ZipOutputStream zipStream = new ZipOutputStream(baos);
... write to zipStream ...
Likewise wrap your byte array for reading data from in a ByteArrayInputStream.
Of course, ZipOutputStream is appropriate if you want to create content using the zip compression format, which is good for (or at least handles :) multiple files. For a single stream of data, you may want to use DeflaterOutputStream or GZIPOutputStream, again using a ByteArrayOutputStream as the underlying output.
Instead of using a FileInputStream or FileOutputStream you can use ByteArrayInputStream and ByteArrayOutputStream.
