Video bad quality when play in java

I am trying to play a video in Java using xuggler, but when I run it the quality significantly decreases. Here are 2 screenshots as an example:
From the second screenshot you can see the colors are all different. I am not a video expert, could someone tell me where is the problem? Video decoder? Color encoding? Can someone help me?
EDIT: this is the code I wrote to play the video. It is the same as Xuggler's example.

Exception shoutcast and java

I trying to write a code to stream from shoutcast server
and I use the below code and give me javax.sound.sampled.UnsupportedAudioFileException
how I can solve the exception
public static void streamSampledAudio(URL url)
throws IOException, UnsupportedAudioFileException,
LineUnavailableException
{
AudioInputStream ain = null; // We read audio data from here
SourceDataLine line = null; // And write it here.
try {

ain=AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(bis);
AudioFormat format = ain.getFormat( );
DataLine.Info info=new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class,format);
if (!AudioSystem.isLineSupported(info)) {
AudioFormat pcm =
new AudioFormat(format.getSampleRate( ), 16,
format.getChannels( ), true, false);
ain = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(pcm, ain);
format = ain.getFormat( );
info = new DataLine.Info(SourceDataLine.class, format);
}
line = (SourceDataLine) AudioSystem.getLine(info);
line.open(format);
int framesize = format.getFrameSize( );
byte[ ] buffer = new byte[4 * 1024 * framesize]; // the buffer
int numbytes = 0; // how many bytes
boolean started = false;
for(;;) { // We'll exit the loop when we reach the end of stream
int bytesread=ain.read(buffer,numbytes,buffer.length-numbytes);
if (bytesread == -1) break;

line.drain( );
}
finally { // Always relinquish the resources we use
if (line != null) line.close( );

Extracting files from Oracle blob fields;

I am trying to extract a file from a blob using the values found in the fields following the blob column. My solution works, but it is rather slow.
I extracted 169MB(727 different files) in about 1 hour. That's about 12 files a minute.
most of the files are usually between 5KB and 50KB but can sometimes be as big as 2MB. I am working with a local Oracle database.
Is there anything I could do to make my code more efficient? If not, what other factors might affect the speed of the process? Here is the method's code:
public void beginExtraction(String FileOutDir, String blobSQL,
String fileSuffix, Connection conn) {
if ((FileOutDir != null) && (blobSQL != null) && (conn != null)) {
PreparedStatement selBlobs = null;
FileOutputStream fos = null;
if (conn != null) {
if (blobSQL != null) {
try {
selBlobs = conn.prepareStatement(blobSQL);
ResultSet rs = selBlobs.executeQuery();
int cols = rs.getMetaData().getColumnCount();
while (rs.next()) {
Blob blob = rs.getBlob(1);
InputStream is = blob.getBinaryStream();
String filepath = "";
filepath += FileOutDir + "/";
for (int c = 2; c <= cols; c++) {
filepath += rs.getObject(c).toString() + "_";
}
filepath = filepath.substring(0,
filepath.length() - 1);
filepath += fileSuffix;
fos = new FileOutputStream(filepath);
int b = 0;
while ((b = is.read()) != -1) {
fos.write(b);
}
}
selBlobs.close();
fos.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(gui, e.toString());
}
}
}
} else {
if (conn == null) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(gui,
"You have not selected a database.");
} else {
if (FileOutDir == null) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(gui,
"You have not chosen a directory for your files.");
} else {
if (blobSQL == null) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(gui,
"Please insert an SQL statement.");
}
}
}
}
}

Changing to a buffered output made the process exponentially faster. I was able to export the 727 files in under a minute. Here the new code:
//...
while (rs.next()) {
blob = rs.getBlob(1);
is = blob.getBinaryStream();
filepath += "/";
for (int c = 2; c <= cols; c++) {
filepath += rs.getObject(c).toString() + "_";
}
filepath = filepath.substring(0,
filepath.length() - 1);
filepath += fileSuffix;
fos = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(filepath));
while ((b = is.read()) != -1) {
fos.write(b);
}
filepath = FileOutDir;
b = 0;
}
//...

I can't manage to copy files from assets to external storage

I am making an Android application, and I would like to add two files named fsx.xml and xplane.xml. This is the code I am using, it runs perfectly without errors, but the /planesim just appears empty. Please help!
String planesimFolderName = "/planesim";
String fsxFile = "fsx.xml";
String xplaneFile = "xplane.xml";
String asset;
File assetDestination;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.splash);
final File planesimFolder = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + planesimFolderName);
final AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
for (int fileCount = 1; fileCount == 2; fileCount++) {
if (fileCount == 1) {
asset = fsxFile;
} else if (fileCount == 2) {
asset = xplaneFile;
}
assetDestination = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + planesimFolderName + "/" + asset);
try {
InputStream in = assetManager.open(asset);
FileOutputStream f = new FileOutputStream(assetDestination);
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int len1 = 0;
while ((len1 = in.read(buffer)) > 0) {
f.write(buffer, 0, len1);
}
f.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d("CopyFileFromAssetsToSD", e.getMessage());
}
}
}
Thanks for your time and help, zeokila.

This is your mistake:
for (int fileCount = 1; fileCount == 2; fileCount++)
which is like:
int fileCount = 1;
while(fileCount == 2) // never true...
The for loop never executed (because 1 != 2), should be:
for (int fileCount = 1; fileCount <= 2; fileCount++)

Xuggle combine audio with generated audio

I have an mp3 file, and an image. I need to create a video combining them, in java.
I'm trying to do it with xuggle, but there are still no results.
Can anybody give me any suggestions ?

Finally, I found a solution.
I used pieces of code from Xuggle's examples.
I also solved a problem with audio transcoding.
I'll write my code here, because I cannot explain why it works, but it just works.
public String make() throws IOException, InterruptedException {
BufferedImage s1 = genImage();
writer = ToolFactory.makeWriter("temp/" + sermon.getFile().getName() + ".flv");
String filename = sermon.getFile().getAbsolutePath();
IContainer container = IContainer.make();
if (container.open(filename, IContainer.Type.READ, null) < 0) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("could not open file: " + filename);
}
int numStreams = container.getNumStreams();
int audioStreamId = -1;
IStreamCoder audioCoder = null;
for (int i = 0; i < numStreams; i++) {
IStream stream = container.getStream(i);
IStreamCoder coder = stream.getStreamCoder();
if (coder.getCodecType() == ICodec.Type.CODEC_TYPE_AUDIO) {
audioStreamId = i;
audioCoder = coder;
break;
}
}
if (audioStreamId == -1) {
throw new RuntimeException("could not find audio stream in container: " + filename);
}
if (audioCoder.open() < 0) {
throw new RuntimeException("could not open audio decoder for container: " + filename);
}
writer.addAudioStream(0, 0, audioCoder.getChannels(), audioCoder.getSampleRate());
writer.addVideoStream(1, 1, width, height);
IPacket packet = IPacket.make();
int n = 0;
while (container.readNextPacket(packet) >= 0) {
n++;
if (packet.getStreamIndex() == audioStreamId) {
IAudioSamples samples = IAudioSamples.make(2048, audioCoder.getChannels());
int offset = 0;
while (offset < packet.getSize()) {
try {
int bytesDecoded = audioCoder.decodeAudio(samples, packet, offset);
if (bytesDecoded < 0) {
//throw new RuntimeException("got error decoding audio in: " + filename);
break;
}
offset += bytesDecoded;
if (samples.isComplete()) {
if (n % 1000 == 0) {
writer.flush();
System.out.println(n);
System.gc();
}
writer.encodeAudio(0, samples);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
} else {
do {
} while (false);
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < container.getDuration() / 1000000; i++) {
writer.encodeVideo(1, s1, i, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
}
writer.close();
if (audioCoder != null) {
audioCoder.close();
audioCoder = null;
}
if (container != null) {
container.close();
container = null;
}
return "temp/" + sermon.getFile().getName() + ".flv";
}
Thanks, good luck.
