Transmit images between 2 Java applications

Elec490 · 04-15-2005, 04:30 PM

Hi guys,
I am trying to transmit a YUV image between two JMF applications via RTP using the JPEG/RTP format. I think my biggest problem is to understand how to create the DataSource of the transmitter in order to encapsulate the YUV image in it.
How do I do this since the DataSource is usually build using the manager and the CreatedataSource which receives a MediaLocator?

Thanks in advance,

CM

I've done something similar (over a socket connection) by using a byte array:

Code:

Socket mySock = new Socket("127.0.0.1", 3000);
				    Image bi = this.createImage(this.getSize().width-180, this.getSize().height);
					printAll(bi.getGraphics());
					String done = "done";
					OutputStream out = mySock.getOutputStream();
           			      GifEncoder myGif = new GifEncoder (bi, out, true);
           			myGif.encode();
					out.write(done.getBytes());

I used "done" to indicate the end of the image. I used the ACME encoders, but back then I didn't know about JAI.

And how about moving this to the programming forum?
