Read quicktime movie from servlet in a webpage?
- by khue
Hi,
I have a servlet that construct response to a media file request by reading the file from server:
File uploadFile = new File("C:\\TEMP\\movie.mov");
FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(uploadFile);
Then write that stream to the response stream. My question is how do I play the media file in the webpage using embed or object tag to read the media stream from the response?
Here is my code in the servlet:
public void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
request.getParameter("location");
uploadFile(response);
}
private void uploadFile(HttpServletResponse response) {
File transferFile = new File("C:/TEMP/captured.mov");
FileInputStream in = null;
try {
in = new FileInputStream(transferFile);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("File not found");
}
try {
System.out.println("in byes i s" + in.available());
} catch (IOException e) {
}
DataOutputStream responseStream = null;
try {
responseStream = new DataOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("Io exception");
}
try {
Util.copyStream(in, responseStream);
} catch (CopyStreamException e) {
System.out.println("copy Stream exception");
}
try {
responseStream.flush();
} catch (IOException e) {
}
try {
responseStream.close();
} catch (IOException e) {
}
}
And here is html page as Ryan suggested:
<embed SRC="http://localhost:7101/movies/transferservlet"
WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=196 AUTOPLAY=true CONTROLLER=true LOOP=false
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/">
Any ideas?
