Displaying a .gif image and audio in java

Hi all I need a simple working example that shows how to have Java show a .gif image. I have done several searches but everyone over complicates it and makes in not understandable. I just want a super simple way of displaying an image in java.
I also need to know how to play an audio clip through java.
Your help is much appreciated as I have been banging my head for hours now

Download and install JMF for audio and vedeo clips. JMF is freely available.
To display an image which is not a difficult task, just tell where you want to display an image.
regards

  • Images and audio files in a database

    how does one put images and audio files in oracle 8? What are the data types going to be in the tables for images and audio files..?
    null

    One of the most important reasons that one would choose to store multimedia in the database is to be able to manage this content safely and efficiently. Having multimedia in the database allows you to use database itegrity techniques to keep your data safe and consistent. If you choose to use BFILE storage, you will NOT have these advantages. You will have to back up the database, and the filesystem(s) where the multimedia is stored, and devise a way to keep this data consistent. You will not be able to rely upon the database backup entirely, you would need filesystem backups to be coordinated with database backups.
    I would suggest that you store the multimedia in BLOBs within the database.
    From the LOB application developer's guide:
    * External (BFILE) LOBs do not participate in transactions. Any support for integrity and durability must be provided by the underlying file system as governed by the operating system.

  • Creating Video with single Image and Audio

    Hi All,
    My requirement is to pass an Image and audio and the expected out put is a like a video which shows the image and plays the background. Can it done in JMF if so how can it be done? Thanks.

    Hi,
    I am also trying to do almost the same thing using the JpegToMovieConverter, however I am facing a problem.
    Objective: To create a video file which will include the output from webcam and my mic. Also, there are some images. Whenever the user selects an image, then instead of the webcam video, that image should be shown until it is unselected or the user selects some other image.
    Problem: I have implemented the mic and webcam streams but
    1. I dont understand how would I create a stream from my image, given that the length of stream should be as long as the image is selected.
    2. Also, how would I merge the three stream so that the images' stream overwrites the webcam's video stream.
    Thank you.

  • Successfully imported from TRV 460 firewire for D8 but fails to record from translated Hi8 or 8 even though images and audio is received.

    TRV460 can play back newer format D8 as well as old formats Hi8 and 8 tapes.  According to manual and comments I've seen on e-bay and internet blogs when it outputs the playback for old Hi8 and 8 tapes it translates them to a digital signal on the firewire connection between my sony camcorder TRV460 and macbook Pro.   If I'm using a D8 tape it works fine.  If I'm using an 8 formated tape the image and audio appear on the import playback.  But when I try to record there is a warning message that data is missing.  If this is a sony problem how is it that the imovie succussfully provides the visual and audio?  It would appear the digital is sent.  Seems to me like it must be an imovie issue?  But I'm not sure.
    Can anyone help.

    If I understand this correctly, then you have an Optimus graphics card (couldn't find anything online, but your lspci looks like it). I too have such a setup on my laptop. The thing to keep in mind here, is that your main graphics card is the Intel integrated card. So instead of installing your system like with an nvidia card, you install it like an intel card. Specifically, you would want to follow the instructions on Bumblebee. Once you followed them, the whole graphics part runs on the Intel card. Once you want to play a game or do some other heavy graphics card work you call your application like this:
    optirun wine /path/to/game.exe
    Notice how optirun tells the system to use the nvidia card. It will take a second or two to start it (specifically, enable the card, start another X screen and launch the application on it transparently). Follow the instructions in the Wiki if you have any problems.
    If you don't have an Optimus card (just NVIDIA, no Intel), then don't follow any Optimus instructions, just usual NVIDIA stuff from the Wiki.

  • Problem at displaying animated gif images !!!!!!!!!!!!

    hello everyone......i am trying to display an animated gif image..............so till far i have no issues on this....
    but i face problem when :
    i have created a class called SimpleGame which extends JPanel....
    public class SimpleGame extends JPanel

  • How do I display a GIF image stored in byte[ ]

    I have a bit of sticky problem and am now stuck. I will post a little code in the hopes someone more clever than I can give me a hand
    I am using a servlet to grab some data from a user, a web service (still within the servlet) is then called that generates a GIF of the user location as
    specified by the address data grabbed from the user input (GET via the url parameters). The byte data is stored in a bean as a byte [ ] and added to the request as an attribute
    via request.setAttribute().
    I then forward to a jsp page that looks like this:
         <html>
         <head>
         <title>Learn Fast or Perish</title>
         </head>
         <body>
         <center>
         <hr>
         </center>
         <h1>Hello World.</h1>
         <jsp:include page="/display" flush="true"/>
         </body>
         </html>.../display maps to another servlet. The doGet portion of the servlet looks like this:
                //response and request are the HTTPServletResponse/Request doGet parameters
                //ImageByteInformation is my bean holding image info in byte [] format
                ImageByteInformation imageByteInfo = (ImageByteInformation) request.getAttribute("imageByteInformation");
                ImageIcon imageIcon = new ImageIcon(imageByteInfo.getByteData());
                Image image = imageIcon.getImage();
                //create a BufferedImage from the image
                BufferedImage bufferedImage = new BufferedImageCreator().createBufferedImage(image);
                System.out.println("BufferedImage length: " + bufferedImage.getHeight() + "BufferedImage width: " + bufferedImage.getWidth());//400 by 600
                System.out.println("BufferedImage string: " + bufferedImage.toString());
                //prints out: BufferedImage@93afae: type = 2 DirectColorModel: rmask=ff0000 gmask=ff00 bmask=ff amask=ff000000 IntegerInterleavedRaster: width=600 yada yada
                response.setContentType("/image/gif");
                OutputStream stream = response.getOutputStream();
                ImageIO.write(bufferedImage, "gif", stream);
                stream.close();... i found the code above on line and this is supposed to display a GIF to a web page.
    For a while the code was actually prompting if I wanted to download a file of type "/image/gif"?!?
    I did download and save it as temp.gif and the image was there when I opened it on my desktop.
    Something is in the byte array but I cannot get it to display on the page. So what am I doing wrong.
    So my question is this...
    How can I display the gif info stored as a byte [] (byte array) in a bean with a jsp page. I thought including a servlet that
    writes the bytes to the reponse would but no such luck. Is what I am trying possible? This newbie would greatly appreciate
    any advice :)

    First of all the following line is a little off:
    response.setContentType("/image/gif");should be
    response.setContentType("image/gif");What you should do is rather than do an include, try something like the following:
    <img src="/display" />If you're telling me that /display is mapped to the servlet that has the doGet you reference, this would be the proper way to do it.
    HTH.

  • Problems with image and audio in Premiere

    Hi! I'm using Premiere Elements 9, but there's no synchronization with imagen and audio because the image is slower than audio and it's causing problems when I'm editing. Why can I do? It's there a poblem that can I fix in "Preferences" or is my laptop?
    I hope your answer,

    When you do post the PrE forum, this ARTICLE will give you tips on the types of info, that will be so useful. See you there!

  • Importing GIF images and maintaining transparency

    I have an issue involving gif images where there is a transparent area that must remain transparent. When I import these images into FCP (6.0.4), the transparent area becomes white and looks awful... how do I fix this phenomenon?

    Does it really have to be GIF?
    Only 256 colors as opposed to the 16 million possible in a TV picture.
    Alpha channel is either on or off - meaning you can't have semi-transparent areas.
    Non-existent anti aliasing and horrible quality generally.
    Even with JPEG you are pushing your luck. JPEG compression can corrupt the fields in interlaced video.
    Saving money on cheap, quick graphics now means spending it later trying to fix what "doesn't look right". Guess what? It never will.
    TIFF is best, PNG will just about do it if not.

  • Importing Video from Video from GV-DV1000 NTSC Sony VTR - Image and Audio out of sinchronization

    Hi, I´m using Final Cut Express 10.1.1. and to import video, the Sony GV-DV1000 NTSC.  My Operating System is Maverick 10.9.2
    When I import a Video, the audio and video is sinchronized but when I start to edit, video and audio are not sinchronized.
    The connection from the VTR to the iMac is thru a firewire cable to a thunderbilt cable. There is a way to avoid this problem?
    Thanks for your prompt response,
    Sincerely,

  • Saving Applet display as an image... Java newb

    Hello,
    I'm using wirefusion3D to display and configure 3D objects on a website I've been developing. The only thing it lacks is the ability to save out an image of the current display, which I need to do in order to place those images on a pdf invoice.
    It does, however, have the ability to include custom java code within the applet, so I would like to create a function that will take a snapshot of the current rendered applet display and save that snapshot as a bitmap image on the server. I'm new to Java (I'm a PHP/Javascript guy), and have had no luck finding anything about how this would be done. I'm not really sure what to search for, as I don't really know what java functions/classes deal with this sort of thing.
    I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
    Thanks in advance

    1. If all the drawing is taking place in one J/Component, you can construct a BufferedImage, obtain a reference to its associated Graphics and call paint/Component passing the Graphics reference as parameter. Then save the image to a file.
    2. java.awt.Robot#createScreenCapture returns a BufferedImage which is a snapshot of the screen.

  • Is it possible to simultaneously display a still image and a title?

    I'm basically trying to add photos to my movie and have some kind of text on the screen at the same time. iMovie won't seem to allow me to have text (titles are the only form of 'text' that I know of in iMovie) at the same time as an inserted image. Is there some easy way to have text and still photos appear at the same time? (maybe it's possible in an iPhoto slideshow?)

    Yes. Drag the text style you want to the photo.

  • How to display URL images and URL link (html) from Smartforms?

    1- put your images in a directory under the web app directory. Example: app/images/
    2- in your jsp, use: String file = application.getRealPath("/images/"); to get the images directory. See http://java.sun.com/j2ee/sdk_1.3/techdocs/api/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRealPath(java.lang.String)
    3- it's not the right forum to post this kind of question. Post them in the JSP/Servlet JSTL forum instead

  • Gif image display problem

    I can't get QuickTime to display gif images from the web. It will show the same gif file on my local machine, but if I put it on the web it will no longer display. My web browser shows that the url is valid, and will display the gif image. But QuickTime returns a "Error 47: Invalid URL" I have tried multiple computers, and have the same problem.

    First.
    You don't need a browser plug-in to display a .gif file and you really don't want to use QuickTime plug-in to display them.
    If you can view the .gif in a blank browser window (all by itself) copy that URL.
    Open QuickTime Player and Control-U. Paste the URL and see what happens.
    My blue Q has this URL:
    http://supportdownload.apple.com/discussions.apple.com/avatar-display.jspa?avata rID=111&file=av.png
    It is a .png file file but any image format could be used. Copy the URL and test to see how it works.
