ImageDecoding sample shows how to pick an image from system album and decode the image.

View the sample:

• Java (Android) ImageDecoding Sample (v9.6.20)

Generally, you can use the following methods to decode an image file:

• decodeFile: Decode an image file with a file path.
• decodeFileInMemory: Decode an image file in memory with a byte buffer or fileStream.
• decodeBase64String: Decode an image file in memory with a Base64 string.
• decodeBufferedImage: Decode Bitmap.

Different from processing the video streaming, the read rate performance is much more important when processing a single image. It is suggested to switch to the PresetTemplate to IMAGE_READ_RATE to improve the read rate performance.

In ImageDecoding sample, the image file picked from album is firstly read in the memory and displayed on the view. As a result, it is processed by method decodeFileInMemory. You can also use a similar way to get the file path of the image file and process it with decodeFile. You can get full code of how to extract the file path from another sample: PerformanceSettings.
