Problems with JPEG encoding

I'm making photo album on the web. But I have a problem with thumbnails generation. I have read alot about it on this forum (thanks guys) but I have a problem:
Sometimes (but not every time) and independent on the image I've got thumbnail picture that can not be readed neither by IE or Photoshop or another programm. I'm using next encoding sequence:
PEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(out);
com.sun.image.codec.jpeg.JPEGEncodeParam param = encoder.getDefaultJPEGEncodeParam(bufferedImage);
writeParam.setCompressionMode(JPEGImageWriteParam.MODE_EXPLICIT);
param.setQuality(0.7f, true);
encoder.setJPEGEncodeParam(param);
encoder.encode(bufferedImage);
And this code operate in the Servlet enviroment. So, I can not understand what is wrong?

Hi Renat.
I may be wrong but I have observed some troubles with JPEG encoding (particularly because of a lack of CPU)... You may have the same trouble... The problem is that I don't how to catch these errors but if someone knows how to, I would be really interested in... I can only catch them when I decode these images thanks to TruncatedFileException and ImageFormatException.

Problem with file.encoding in Linux

Hello,
I am currently migrating a java project from Windows to Linux. The project is finally shaping up now, except for some encoding problems.
All configuration files are saved in ISO-8859-1/Cp1252 format. When reading and displaying these files in Swing (e.g. JTextArea), the special characters �� are displayed wrong. I have tried to start the VM with -Dfile.encoding=ISO-8859-1 and -Dfile.encoding=Cp1252 without success (this is done in Eclipse under Linux).
I then tried the opposite. I created some UTF-8 files, started the application under Windows/Eclipse, read the files and displayed them in a JTextArea. Garbage characters were shown instead of �� (as expected). I then used -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8, and voila, all characters were displayed correctly.
Why does not -Dfile.encoding work for ISO-8859-1/Linux but -Dfile.encoding work for UTF-8/Windows? Anyone here know?
The JRE I have been using is 1.4.2_06.
The Linux is a SuSE 10.0

Problem with jpeg images imported from Illustrator

Hi, i am kind of new with Premire and video, though have experience in web design and coding, but i have noticed a weird problem with premiere pro cs 5.5 when i import jpeg pictures and put them as intro before the video that where done in adobe illustrator and have vectors and stuff, the quality of the image gets pretty bad and blurry...i searched through the internet looking for clues on what to do like changing to png, tiff formats but nothing has helped so far....any ideas on what to do. So when i import jpeg,png images from illustrator (that have vectors or illustrations) do i have to do something special with it, or import it in some special format??? i would appreciate the help.
This is how the image looks on youtube:
Anyway here is the video with its poor image quality. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_oMNzXAZ8Y&feature=youtu.be
This is how it looks originally before putiing it, in premiere pro cs 5.5
Anyway here is the video with its poor image quality. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_oMNzXAZ8Y&feature=youtu.be
THANX guys would appreciate the help!!!

hiya.
video likes 72 dpi ( though some will say it doesnt matter .. thats a long story ). basically video 'shows' 72 dpi ( basically what the monitor resolution is...typically 72 dpi ). As you know from print and dimensions, there is a relative sorta thing with byte count ( file size in bytes ), ppi ( I usually say dpi but in video its ppi ....same thing basically )..., and dimensions ( width x height ).
soooo , as you know in print and web stuff...there is a relationship between number of dots or pixels, dimensions in inches or pixels, and overall byte count of file size....
That said, in "print" it is usually best to go with 300dpi.. In video it is best to go with 72 ppi.....
Also, in print and going offest press.. its nice to go with cmyk ( for color separations ).. but in video and web its best to go with RGB.
The video stuff doesnt deal with vector stuff... it just sees and deals with bitmapped stuff...vector stuff is a mathematical sorta thing whereas video stuff is just plain old bitmaps ( like BMP, TIF, JPG, etc )...
Ideally your still images and graphics in a video editing program would be bitmapped rgb 72 ppi.. and match exactly the dimension of your video format ( eg. 1080p ). That said, it is normal to have LARGER images ( still images and graphics ) than your project dimensions if you PLAN ON SCALING AND MOTION )... like, your original graphic or pic can be larger than the project if you plan on scaling it down over time to make it look like you are zooming out in the video ....
To get the best results of a graphic or picture in a video is to have it exactly the project size ( eg. 1920x1080 px at 72 ppi for full HD ).
soooooo.... if you convert your vector to bitmap, save as psd or tif or something... at 72ppi , with the dimensions in inches or pixels that equals the video ( 1920x1080 for example )... you will see what you want in your second sample ( the original )...
ps.. you can import layers to the video if you wanna do a psd file and have ONE of those layers the one you use in your video ...can label it something like " video layer " ... whatever...

Problem with RPC/encoded WSDL

I'm having trouble calling a web service that is based on an RPC-encoded WSDL. I've already made slight changes to the WSDL, so that I get a work-able message type for mapping purposes. These changes are based on <a href="http://www.ws-i.org/Profiles/BasicProfile-1.0-2004-04-16.html#refinement16556272">soapenc:Array recommendations in WSDL 1.1 Section 2.2</a> for declaration of array types.
Here's a snippet of the WSDL:
<wsdl:definitions ...>
<wsdl:types>
 <schema ...>
 <complexType name="ArrayOf_tns1_ServiceOption">
 <complexContent>
 <restriction base="soapenc:Array">
 <attribute ref="soapenc:arrayType"
 wsdl:arrayType="tns1:ServiceOption[]"
 xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"/>
 </restriction>
 </complexContent>
 </complexType>
 </schema>
 <schema ...>
 <complexType name="ServiceOption">
 <sequence>
 <element name="key" nillable="true"
 type="xsd:string"/>
 <element name="value" nillable="true"
 type="xsd:string"/>
 </sequence>
 </complexType>
 </schema>
</wsdl:types>
</wsdl:definitions>
I've changed it to:
<wsdl:definitions ...>
<wsdl:types>
 <schema ...>
 <complexType name="ArrayOf_tns1_ServiceOption">
 <sequence>
 <element name="ServiceOption"
 type="tns1:ServiceOption"
 minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
 </sequence>
 </complexType>
 </schema>
 </schema>
 <schema ...>
 <complexType name="ServiceOption">
 <sequence>
 <element name="key" nillable="true"
 type="xsd:string"/>
 <element name="value" nillable="true"
 type="xsd:string"/>
 </sequence>
 </complexType>
 </schema>
</wsdl:types>
</wsdl:definitions>
The above changes have allowed me to make message mappings. But the I still get an error when sending a request to the web service. It seems that it requires the xsi:type and soapenc:arrayType attributes for arrays.
How can I create these attributes? How does XI handle RPC-encoded WSDLs? I haven't encountered these problems with document-literal WSDLs.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Lorenzo,
the extended support of rpc-style does not include the support of soapenc:array. It just addresses the root of the message and its direct children (as discussed in the thread where I added this hint).
In the documentation of External Definitions you can find a hint where to find a list of supported XSD/DTD/WSDL-features. However, also there you will find no hint on the fact that soapenc:array is not supported. The reason for this is, that soapenc:array is specified in none of these standards. It is some artifact that SOAP smuggled into XSD. For good reasons WS-I prohibits the use of this artifact.
Hence, if you need support for argumentation I can only point out the WS-I document I already linked.
Greetings

Problem with JPEG files from Leica M and GPS data

It seems there's a serious bug in Camera Raw 8, hosted in Bridge CS6 on an MS Windows machine, with regard to GPS metadata.
When using a Leica M (Typ 240) with a multi-function handgrip then both the DNG files (DNG is Leica's native raw format) and the JPEG files out of the camera will include GPS position data in the respective EXIF metadata sections. However, Bridge refuses to display the JPEG files' GPS data (while there's no problem with the GPS data in the DNG files). Worse yet—when loading a JPEG file in Camera Raw for some parametric adjustments and saving the file then the GPS data will be entirely gone! (Again, no problems with the DNG files' GPS data.)
I suppose that Camera Raw 8 hosted in Bridge CC as well as Lightroom 5 are suffering from the same issue.

Nobody? Absolutely nobody?? Zalman? Eric? Anyone?
If you need more input from me then please talk to me.

Problems with H264 encoding -- corrupted files...

In Media Encoder CS5 I tried to export my Premiere Pro CS5 sequence with H264 encoding(30 fps, progressive, CBR 6 mbps, 640 x 480). Audio(AAC, 48 kHz, 256 kbps). It have made a corrupt video file(with 2 GB size, and it should be ~3,5 GB). I tried to re-export with these settings, and now the size was 1045 MB. Again corrupted file, it cannot be played... The Media Encoder says that there is no errors, the rendering was successful. After several other tries with different settings, I cannot render my movie.
What can I do?
Thanks for help!

Hello all,
This is an old thread, but it's an old problem that I'm concerned may still be continuing.
We're moving from 3.2 to 4.1. While copying our applications from 3.2 to a test 4.1 installation, we did a static file export for "All static files" from 3.2 and did an import to 4.1. We're seeing the same behavior that I and others have reported in the past - any static files that are javascript are corrupted when "all static files" was chosen. Exporting/importing each javascript static file individually appears to work fine.
If the bug was in 3.2 in that it was generating a corrupted export file when "all static files" is chosen, then I'm not concerned - we're moving from 3.2 anyway. But, if the issue is in the import then it must still exist in 4.1 and that would be a concern.
Does anyone know if this was a recognized bug in 3.2 and has since been corrected?
Thanks!

Problems with string encoding - need the text content in char* format.

The problem is non ASCII-characters, which comes out as some sort of unicode I need to desipher.
Here's what I got:
A text frame object with the TextString "Agnartjørna"
I get the text content of this object into an ai::UnicodeString the following way:
AIErr
VMGetTextOfTextArt( AIArtHandle textArt, ai::UnicodeString &ucStr)
    ASUnicode *textBuffer = NULL;
    AITRY {
        TextFrameRef ateTextRef;
        AIX( sAITextFrame->GetATETextFrame( textArt, &ateTextRef));
        ATE::ITextFrame ateText( ateTextRef);
        ATE::ITextRange ateRange = ateText.GetTextRange( true);
        ASInt32 textLen = ateRange.GetSize();
        AIX( sSPBlocks->AllocateBlock( (textLen+2) * sizeof( ASUnicode), nil, (void**) &textBuffer));
        ateRange.GetContents( textBuffer, (ASInt32) textLen+1);
        /* trim off trailing newlines */
        if ((textBuffer[textLen] == '\n') || (textBuffer[textLen] == '\r'))
             textBuffer[textLen] = 0;
        ucStr.clear();
        ucStr.append( ai::UnicodeString( textBuffer, textLen));
        sSPBlocks->FreeBlock( textBuffer);
        textBuffer = NULL;
       AIRETURN;
    AICATCH {
        if (textBuffer) sSPBlocks->FreeBlock( textBuffer);
       AIPROPAGATE;
Now, the next step is to convert it into a form that I can use to call regexp.
Baiscally, I want to detect the ending "tjørna" (meaning small lake) on a map label, and apply a standard abbevriation "tj^a" (with "a" superscripted).
So the problem is to obtain the regexp pattern and the text content in same encoding. And since the regexp library is old *char based, I would like to convert the text content in to plain old *char.
Hence the following code:
static AIErr
VMAbbreviateTextArt( AIArtHandle textArt,
                         vmTextAbbrevEffectParams *params)
    AITRY {
    /* first obtain the text contents of the textArt */
       ai::UnicodeString ucText;
      const int kTextLen = 256;
      char textContent[kTextLen];
      AIX( VMGetTextOfTextArt( textArt, ucText));
      ucText.as_Roman( textContent, kTextLen);
But textContent now has the value "Agnartj\xbfnna" (According to XCode),
which will not get a match on the pattern "tj([øe][rn])na\\" (with backslash matching the end of the string)
Any other ways to convert the textContent to a plain *char string?

Thank you very much, your method will work fine. with
the "UTF-8" parameter the byte[].length is double,
cause every valid byte is preceeded by an -62, but I
will just filter the valid bytes into a new array.
Thanks again,
StefanActually what you need to do is to find the character encoding that your device expects, and then you can code your strings in Arabic.
That's the way Java does things; Strings and char values are always in UNICODE (see www.unicode.org) (which means \u600 to \u6ff for arabic) and uses a specified character encoding when translating these to and from a byte stream.
Each national character encoding has a name. Most of them are identical to ASCII for 0-127 and code their national characters in 128-255.
Find the encoding name for your display and, odds are, the JRE has it in the library.
BTW the character encoding ISO-8859-1 simply maps UNICODE characters 0-255 on to bytes.

Problems with Default Encoding in Mail

I have been trying to change my default encoding settings in Apple Mail to Unicode-8. It has become necessary because some of the outlook clients that my colleagues use see my messages with control-characters/question marks. I know that this problem has been visited before and from the past posts I understand that closing the Mail and typing the following in the Terminal will do the trick:
defaults write com.apple.mail NSPreferredMailCharset "UTF-8"
I tried that several times and for some reason when I try to compose a new message, the encoding is set to "Automatic".
I would appreciate ANY help in this regard. I have been trying to get more information on this but my search has not yet been fruitful.
Thank you very much.

I do have the same problem as Steathford do, I tried
to add a dingbat without success (scissor), I still
have same "chinese signs everywhere",
I've never seen a case where the dingbat did not work. Could you send me an example? You need to go to your Sent folder, choose a message where you did this, and do Message > Send Again, and replace the original addressee with my email (tom at bluesky dot org).
When adding a dingbat, you must use the Character Palette as shown here, and not just change your font.

Problem with URL encoding conversion

Hi all,
I am working on an I18N application and in my application one component sends the request to another component and then this component fetch that requet and extract the query-parameters from the request (HTTP request).
Now the problem is that the input to first component can be given in one of the 5 character encodings:-
UTF-8
Shift_JIS
EUC_JP
Windows-31J
ISO-2022-JP
I have created a test program that convert the encoded URL from one character encoding to another character encoding. It is working successfully for the above 4 encodings but for the last encoding that is "ISO-2022-JP" this fails. The test programs is: -
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.net.URLDecoder;
import java.net.URLEncoder;
class JPtoUTF8{
     public static void main(String[] args){
          try{
              String shift_jis = "%82%C8%82%A4%82%8B%82%E8";          // This is Shift_JIS encoded URL
              String iso2022jp = "%1B%24B%24J%24%26%23k%24j%1B%28B"; // This is ISO-2022-JP encoded URL
              String utf8 = "%E3%81%AA%E3%81%86%EF%BD%8B%E3%82%8A";   // This is the result that should be obtained
              String decodedShift_jis = URLDecoder.decode(shift_jis,"Shift_JIS");
              String decodedIso2022jp = URLDecoder.decode(iso2022jp,"ISO-2022-JP");
              String encodedShift_JIS = URLEncoder.encode(decodedShift_jis,"UTF-8");
              String encodedIso2022jp = URLEncoder.encode(decodedIso2022jp,"UTF-8");
               System.out.println("shift_jis        = "+shift_jis);
               System.out.println("encodedShift_JIS = "+encodedShift_JIS);
               System.out.println("iso2022jp        = "+iso2022jp);
               System.out.println("encodedIso2022jp = "+encodedIso2022jp);
          }catch(Exception e){
               e.printStackTrace();
}I am using jdk5 for this application.
Please give your valuable suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Could the cause be that ISO-2022-JP is not just ISO-2022-JP:
http://www.w3.org/TR/japanese-xml/#AEN28427904
Maybe what you are getting is one of the flavors, while the java urldecoder uses another flavor? Or maybe the string you are getting is incorrectly encoded to being with (might have been incorrectly converted from shift-jis)?
With the shift-in shift-out design it is a difficult encoding to deal with under the best of circumstances, so you have my sympathy.

Applet: problem with cookie encoding for jar request (Firefox - Iplanet)

I have an applet working with a JAR file. When the JVM sends the request to the webserver for the JAR file, it adds to the request the existing domain cookies. However, one of these cookie is encoded, and on Firefox with Iplanet (webserver), it prevents the jar from being downloaded (server returns error 400).
Below the HTTP request (as given by Charles HTTP Proxy) for Firefox and Chrome. We can see that some characters differ for the aria_user_profile cookie.

Is there a solution to this, by setting an encoding on the applet tag for instance?

Problem with media encoder and re-opening projects

Dear all, I'm a newby and I'm having a very strange problem.
I've made my first premiere project and all seems ok in the preview. Then I've tried to exported it in avi using media encoder. This is a 1024x682 color movie, 25fps, duration about a minute. Avi export setting was xvid compression, and after a long wait (10 min) and nothing started, I've re-tried with divx. After some more time, media encoder blocked and I needed to put it down with windows task manager. Then I closed normally premiere.
After re-opening premiere I've selected the saved project, but it do not open and a message appear (in my language, so I'm trying to translate): "Impossible to open a sequence of the project. It was not possible to associate any sequence preview file or codec to this kind of sequence."
Moreover I've tried do create some other simple projects but none of them can be opened!
More info: Premiere pro CS4, Win XP sp3 32bit, PC AMD64 3200+, 3 GB ram.
Inside project: a couple of avi non compressed video and a couple of jpg still images. And some transitions and text. Background music. Very simple.
I hope you can let me know how to get back to my project, and also to export in avi. Help! Thanks!
Addition:
PS: maybe the codec error I attach can be the cause? How to solve?

Unfortunately, both Sherlock and G-Spot do not see the Adobe MainConcept CODEC's correctly. Adobe uses a naming convention, that they do not understand, but it's done to "hide" those CODEC's, so that other programs do not overwrite them.
Now, there have been reported instances, where a full-paid version of PrPro has "reverted" to the trial version. The trial version cannot do anything with regard to MPEG.
In those cases (do not know the causes), the fix has been to uninstall CS4, run the Adobe Clean Script CS4 several times, rebooting between each run, then installing CS4 again, then updating it. This has worked in every case, that I can recall.
What caused the full-paid versions to revert is a mystery to me, and I have yet to hear of the cause.
Sounds like your full-paid CS4 now thinks that it's the trial version. The steps above should get it fixed for you.
Good luck,
Hunt

Windows photo viewer - problem with JPEG files

Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software (For example from Solidworks).
When I try to right click on a JPEG, a notice window appears written: "Windows Explorer has stopped working - Windows is
checking for a solution to the problem" and then the notice box disapears, the desktop appears and I can continue working.
From the other side - If I try to save as JPEG a screen of Solidworks (like a view of a part) the Solidworks falls but the JPEG
is created (I can see its name in the directory I created it).
I can open the JPEGS with the Paint software if I want but not with the Windows Photo Viewer.
I have the feeling that the Windows Photo Viewer disapeared from my computer - just a feeling.
I will appreciate your assistance.
Avi T. 2014

Hi,
According to your description,please re-associate the .jpeg with Windows photo viewer.
1.Open Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Default Programs.
2.Click Windows Photo Viewer, and choose defaults for this program, check the .jpeg, and then click Save.
3.Next,click Windows Photo Viewer again, and click Set this program as default.
As you said, when you tried to right click on a JPEG, Windows Explorer stopped working.
I suggest you use ShellExview to remove the third-party shell extension.

Burn problems with audio encoding

I have a 1hr 40 min movie that I've converted to QT and put into iMovie. I then put in several songs at different places and rendered and burned it. After burning a few more copies, it unexpectedly froze while something about "encoding audio" was in the window. This is curious b/c the rendering process had already taken place.
Went back in, re-loaded all the songs, re-rendered the movie and burned one copy. At the end of this burn, it ejected the disc, then froze with a message like "finishing copying" or something like that, and wouldn't make any more copies.
When I open the iDVD project again, it now will process the menus, but as soon as it gets to processing the movie, it freezes and indicates it's trying to render the audio.
Anybody have any clues? I'm beginning to think it's a hardware issue, maybe my logic board?
Thanks.

The problem is in making multiple copies once all the rendering has been done and it's just in burn mode.
Create a disk image and burn from that.
File/Save as Disc Image...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/18.html
This will isolate any encoding/burning issues you may encounter. Once the disc image is created, double-click the .img and burn the virtual disc that should appear on your desktop, using Toast to burn the DVD. Disk Utility to burn the .img file. Usually, you can select a burning speed in Disk Utility.
There are variations to this process based on which OS X you are using...
Open Disk Utility (in Utilities folder in Applications folder), click on the virtual disc (maybe the .img) in the left-hand window. Click the Burn icon. A new window should drop down and your SuperDrive tray will open after clicking the Burn icon. Insert a recordable DVD. (Verbatim DVD-R preferred by me.) Click the Close button. Wait. Select a burn speed. If you hold your mouse cursor over the pop-up it says: "Select a slower speed to work around burn failures," so select 4x or slower for best results. Then click the Burn button.
-->If the virtual disk selection won't allow you to click the Burn icon, use the .img file instead. This may have changed in 10.3.9 and did change in Tiger.
Also, you can use DVD Player to play the virtual disk to check your iDVD project before burning to DVD. Launch DVD Player. File/Open VIDEO_TS (Open DVD Media... in Player 4.6). Find the VIDEO_TS folder and open that. (The audio folder is for DVD-Audio disks.)

Problem with base64 encoding an xml file with accented characters

Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 Enterprise Edition running under windows 2003 server
DB Characterset UTF-8
I have a routine which takes an xml file and base64 encodes it, and the base64encoded text is stored in a clob column of a table.
The xml file is stored in UTF-8 format.
The routine works correctly, except when there are accented characters.
I am using dbms_lob.loadclobfrom file to load the file.
DBMS_LOB.OPEN(src_clob, DBMS_LOB.LOB_READONLY);
 DBMS_LOB.LoadCLOBFromFile(
 DEST_LOB => dest_clob
 , SRC_BFILE => src_clob
 , AMOUNT => DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(src_clob)
 , DEST_OFFSET => dst_offset
 , SRC_OFFSET => src_offset
 , BFILE_CSID =>dbms_lob.default_csid
 , LANG_CONTEXT => lang_ctx
 , WARNING => warning
 DBMS_LOB.CLOSE(src_clob);base 64 encoded xml with accented character -- incorrect
