Just to add to the confusion I have just found my second locateDifference call has numerous detections of change one after each other very intermittently, it will then just go back to never detecting changes to obviously different images.
Please if someone can give me a hand I have pasted my problematic code (the code checks for difference in a region and if there is difference it sends the difference to buffer and checks for further differences in this frame, it hardly ever tells me there are more differences. Therefore it is always sending changes when there are more changes to detect first.
else
{
rect2 = new XYRect(offsetX,offsetY,w, h);
newBitmap.locateDifference(rect2,lastBitmap, 0, 0);
if((rect2.x > 0) || (rect2.y > 0))
{
pixels = new int[w*h];
newBitmap.getARGB(pixels, 0, w, offsetX, offsetY, w, h);
lastBitmap.setARGB(pixels, 0, w, offsetX, offsetY, w, h);
sendWidth = w;
sendHeight = h;
send = true;
}
}
}
}
if(send)
{
send = false;
pixels3 = integersToBytes(pixels);
writeToBuffer( out, dout, pixels3, offsetX, offsetY, w, h);
XYRect rect22 = new XYRect(0,0,lastBitmap.getWidth(), lastBitmap.getHeight());
final Bitmap newBitmap2 = newBitmap;
final Bitmap lastBitmap2 = lastBitmap;
newBitmap2.locateDifference(rect22,lastBitmap2, 0, 0);
if(true)
{
//doOnce = false;
if((rect22.x > 0) || (rect22.y > 0))//bout.size() > (width * height))
{
Log.info(height+" heigth still more changes to be processed width="+width);
}
else
{
//Log.info(height+" heigth no more changes to be processed width="+width);
writeBufferToSocket();
}
}
}
