Converting preview frame to bitmap


I know the subject was on the board many times, but i can not get it work anyhow... I want to save view frames from preview to jpeg files. It looks more or less(code is simplified- without additional logic, exception etc) like this...

public void onPreviewFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera) {
  int width = camera.getParameters().getPreviewSize().width;
  int height = camera.getParameters().getPreviewSize().height;


  final int[] rgb = decodeYUV420SP(data, width, height);

  Bitmap bmp = Bitmap.createBitmap(rgb, width, height,Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);

  String filename="/sdcard/file" + (index++)+ ".jpg"; 
  FileOutputStream out;
  out = new FileOutputStream(filename);
  bmp.compress(Bitmap.CompressFormat.JPEG, 90, out);
  out.flush();
  out.close();
  out=null;

 }

Here is the one of the methods i tried to convert colors(from this board i believe)

public int[] decodeYUV420SP( byte[] yuv420sp, int width, int height) {   

    final int frameSize = width * height;   

    int rgb[]=new int[width*height];   
    for (int j = 0, yp = 0; j < height; j++) {   
        int uvp = frameSize + (j >> 1) * width, u = 0, v = 0;   
        for (int i = 0; i < width; i++, yp++) {   
            int y = (0xff & ((int) yuv420sp[yp])) - 16;   
            if (y < 0) y = 0;   
            if ((i & 1) == 0) {   
                v = (0xff & yuv420sp[uvp++]) - 128;   
                u = (0xff & yuv420sp[uvp++]) - 128;   
            }   

            int y1192 = 1192 * y;   
            int r = (y1192 + 1634 * v);   
            int g = (y1192 - 833 * v - 400 * u);   
            int b = (y1192 + 2066 * u);   

            if (r < 0) r = 0; else if (r > 262143) r = 262143;   
            if (g < 0) g = 0; else if (g > 262143) g = 262143;   
            if (b < 0) b = 0; else if (b > 262143) b = 262143;   

            rgb[yp] = 0xff000000 | ((r << 6) & 0xff0000) | ((g >> 2) &    
    0xff00) | ((b >> 10) & 0xff);   


        }   
    }   
    return rgb;   
    } 

The problem is that the picture always looks like three 'strange green pictures'... I ama new user so i can't post it:(

I dont know if it has something to do with the size or what but i am stuck... Can you support me with it?


Solution

  • as I found out the width and height read from PreviewSize were wrong.... In other words the conversion went wrong because it was based on false values. After use a new way of setting the preview settings(from example deleivered by google) everything works fine.

    EDIT:

    Sorry for the quick answer above and long delay.

    It was while ago and I can not dig the code now, but i think that I used:

    http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html#getSupportedPreviewSizes()

    and took the first element from the list and set the values with

    http://developer.android.com/reference/android/hardware/Camera.Parameters.html#setPreviewSize(int, int)

    i stored the width and height and used it to transform picture.

    It dont know if it was the best solution, but it worked out.
