@34:40 Just to let anyone know that it might not work when testing at that point. This might not work for all JPEG files if anyone gets to that point of the tutorial. the reason being is it is not guaranteed that the Quantization Table Marker bytes will follow after all the APPN bytes. In my case, with a picture I took to test, after traversing through all the APPN bytes, doing inFile.get() goes to FF C4 (Huffman Table). I made a temporary while loop inside the marker loop to get the Quantization Table printing on the console: while (last != 0xFF && current != 0xDB) { last = inFile.get(); current = inFile.get(); } This of course won't be necessary in the future when all markers will have all of the function to handle each of them for which the tutorial series provide later on but just as a heads up for anyone following this and not getting anything printed.

What a brilliant video. Thoroughly enjoyed. One query - Can you please make a video on jpeg2000 structure and writing code for that too? I know it's high ask but you have set high expectations already.

Can you make this code available somewhere? It would be easier to reference it later :)

Yes! The code is available here: github.com/dannye/jed Sorry for taking so long to reply

@18:30 Could you elaborate on what you mean by bit shifting the first byte to the left with an example of what's happening? I am not understanding that part.

We need to read a 16-bit unsigned integer. Since we are traversing the file byte by byte, we need to read two individual bytes. Each of these bytes is 8 bits. Let's say the first byte is XXXXXXXX and the second byte is YYYYYYYY. We bit-shift the first byte to the left eight times so its value becomes the 16-bit number XXXXXXXX00000000. Then we add the second byte to get the desired value of XXXXXXXXYYYYYYYY.

@@danielharding3688 Ah I see. Thx!

I can refactor this in Python in a OOP way if you would like. Just plowing ahead through each byte is fine but implementing additional features for and outside coder looks like a nightmare:)

Is there some API in Python similar to how the I/O streams work in C++? Something that would allow me to access a stream of bytes in a file on disk, as well as a stream of bytes in a memory buffer, with the same API? Because from what I see, the file interface in Python is kinda like just a wrapper on those old file APIs from C. There are also byte strings, but one needs to read them from a file first into memory before being able to process them (and at that point, they're not exactly a stream anymore, just a random-access buffer, like an array of bytes). The good thing about the streaming approach is that one doesn't need to read the entire file into memory in order to be able to process its bytes - one can just read them from the stream, byte by byte, occasionally doing a jump to some other location in the stream, and the streaming API handles all the buffering itself, underneath. Is there an equivalent API in Python?

Hi, can you please provide the original image you are using. Thanks

cattime.com/assets/uploads/gallery/persian-cats-and-kittens/persian-cats-and-kittens-1.jpg I downloaded the image years ago so I do not remember the original source and I do not want to re-upload because I do not know the copyright of the image, but I found an identical copy of the jpeg file here. In hindsight, I should have found some jpeg files that can be freely redistributed. Oh well.

You can use any editor but try Using Visual Studio as it will help you to debug code also. You can find videos on how to use visual studio
