How to upload video file into webserver in android?

Question

Hi I want to upload my video file into web server in Android. I followed this tutorial:

Uploading files to HTTP server using POST on Android.

But. I got thi

Answer 1

its just because of large size of video. Use chunk upload approach for large file/video.

Here is sample code to post chunk data on server.

public void upload(String filename, byte[] image) {
     // 1MB of chunk
    byte[][] divideByte = divideArray(image, ((1024 * 1024)/2));
    int length = divideByte.length;
    String token = "" + (int)System.currentTimeMillis();
    Log.i("System out", "divideByte:" + length);
    Log.i("System out", "token:" + token);

    for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) {
        List nameValuePairs = new ArrayList();

        String link = "";

        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("filename", filename));// filename
        HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
        HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(link);
        Log.i("System out", "divideByte[" + i + "] length :"
                + divideByte[i].length);
        String img = Base64.encodeBytes(divideByte[i]);
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("file64", img));

        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("token", new String(""
                + token)));
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("chunksize", new String(""+
                divideByte[i].length)));
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("chunkcount", new String(
                "" + length)));
        nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair("index", new String(""
                + i)));
        try {
            httppost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
            HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
            HttpEntity httpEntity = response.getEntity();
            if (httpEntity != null) {
                String res = EntityUtils.toString(httpEntity).toString();
                Log.i("System out", "response is :" + res);                 
            }
            httpEntity = null;
            response = null;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }finally{
            httppost = null;
            httpclient = null;
        }           
    }
}

public static byte[][] divideArray(byte[] source, int chucksize) {

    byte[][] ret = new byte[(int) Math.ceil(source.length
            / (double) chucksize)][chucksize];

    Log.i("System out","ret: "+ret.length);
    int start = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < ret.length; i++) {
        if (start + chucksize > source.length) {
            System.arraycopy(source, start, ret[i], 0, source.length
                    - start);
        } else {
            System.arraycopy(source, start, ret[i], 0, chucksize);
        }

        start += chucksize;
    }

    return ret;
}

and on server side get the all chunks index wise and compose one video file.

Hope help to you.
