Hi,
How can i convert image file(GIF or JPG or BMP or...) to Hex?
Very thanks :).
Greeting.
Do you mean convert an image into a Hex String? Won't that take twice as much ram as the raw data anyway?
I need to convert an image into a Hex string! ;)
You need to convert an image of a hex number into a hex string? Or you need to convert the image file into a (very long) hex string?
Ex.:
Hex= "47 49 46 38 39 61 70 00 23 00 91 00 00 00 33 ff 00 89 ff 00 cc ff 00 b9 ff 21 f9 04 04 14 00 ff 00 2c 00 00 00 00 70 00 23 00 00 02 f6 84 8f a9 cb ed 0f a3 9c b4 da 8b b3 de bc fb 0f 86 e2 48 96 66 14 a4 c1 c9 9a 81 30 0c e9 00 b7 b6 f7 ca 42 0d ec 2b 9a ba 09 11 3e c0 6b f5 12 fc 66 3b df b2 29 18 0e 03 34 99 21 c9 b4 5e 9b 06 5a 51 0a a6 ee 64 58 ea 60 eb 84 82 6d 33 af f2 d7 4b 2b 01 6e 63 13 be ce 04 af 6d a8 8a e1 15 73 46 c7 15 c7 93 a7 d1 24 18 94 74 e8 00 27 c6 d3 88 b8 71 b4 e0 86 07 d1 08 17 48 a9 41 03 58 28 d1 49 b4 e3 f9 99 79 70 27 b1 99 90 34 78 1a b2 0a e1 95 6a 37 17 0b 32 f9 80 d5 20 6a 64 9b 4b 51 fb 40 ec ca 04 35 2b 8c f1 7b 99 fc 2c 38 a6 b2 b7 7c d1 db 10 ac 90 54 8d 63 da 51 c5 fd ed 98 88 1b 4e 9e 5d e1 6d ae 37 ce 1e b5 9e 41 83 4e 91 33 3d 0f 8f 50 c6 34 a1 12 f3 fc 85 0f 5b b2 45 d4 04 8e 21 13 30 a1 c2 85 0c 1b 3a 7c 08 31 a2 c3 02 00 3b"

Tnx Joacim Andersson :). But this code doesn't work! :confused:

In that case you haven't tried it... It works perfectly well when I run it. So can you tell me what's wrong with it.Quote:
This code doesn't work
Hi Joacim,
You're brilliant!
I would like to kindly ask how do you convert the HEX representation back to the jpg?
Do you know?
Not a good idea hereQuote:

The original jpg file was simply converted to a hex string just like a hex dump application would do. You would have to have a application that understands image formats and so you would tell it to take this raw hex file and make a jpg image out of it. Perhaps that can be done. I suppose a program could take any hex data string and convert it into any image file you want. Anything other than the original image source format would of could come out a bizzar image.Quote:

Give up on what?
I'm supposed to store the jpg in hex format and later make it a jpg again.... any idea?
Call this function and write the byte array it returns back to disk.vb Code:
ReDim sArr(nUBound) should be ReDim bArr(nUBound)
Yes it should, sorry about that typo I wrote the code directly into the post so I never really tested it.Quote:

I just don't understand why you would need the picture in hex ?
Why can't you just store it in binary format ?
Or why not Base64 ?
Can you explain to us how you got to the conclusion that you need to store the picture in hex ?
You do know that this thread is almost 2 years old right?
I just found out :D
Joacim,
Thanks man, will try the code later and let you know.
Actually i did notice the age of the thread cos i was worried you guys might not update it anymore since i asked for help 2 year later.
Joacim,
Brilliant.
:confused:Quote:

Joacim,
Please, it display path/file access error.Run time error 75.
Thanks.

sSomeStringContainingFilename
Is meant to represent your filename be it a variable or a literal but you must have something valid in there
I also got the Write line wrong (I did mention that I haven't used VB6 for many years) it supposed to be:Code:Put #iFile, , bTheByteArrayReturnedFromTheFunction
Joacim,
Please, it display empty image1.jpg.
Thanks.

I'm not sure what your really want but below code does two thingsQuote:

I have a question however.
Is the code you posted in post #39 the actual hex data you want to compress or is it just a hex dump of the actual data? It's makes a big difference so I need to know which one it is.
EDIT:
Never mind. I tried using your hex code after I converted it to real hex (not a hex dump) and it turned out that the LZW compression actually made the compressed data larger than the original data. That is one of the problems of LZW compression. I can't explain it but it does happen from time to time depending on the input data.
I see that your hex code dump is that of a JPEG image file
I used ZIP logic on it and it compressed it down to 46% of the original. I believe that will be a good choice to use.
Jmsrickland,
Thanks a lot, i really appreciate.
The hex code dump is for a jpeg image file.
Please, below is the beginning of the actual hex value of the image file i want to convert. I would have pasted all for you to see but the character are more than 15000 that the message can take but below is the beginning of the hex code.
Thanks.

Thanks a lot, i really appreciate.
The hex code dump is for a jpeg image file.
Please, below is the beginning of the actual hex value of the image file i want to convert. I would have pasted all for you to see but the character are more than 15000 that the message can take but below is the beginning of the hex code of the jpeg file.
Thanks.

Converting a compressed image (PNG, JPG, GIF) to a Hex string and then compress it, will not create a smaller file then the original file already is.Quote:
I want to take this hex code and compress it so that the file size is smaller.
As Arnoutdv says, a compressed file is compressed by looking for repetitive series of data that can be replaced with a shorter code that can be used to represent the longer pattern.
So once a file is compressed, the redundant data in the file has been pretty much squeezed out of it.
Trying to compress and already compressed file results in little to no extra compression, and often is actually slightly larger due to the overhead associated with the compression meta data added in the compression attempt.
If you uncompressed the data, then re-compressed it with a better compression algorithm, that would give you the best chance at a smaller file.
Converting a file to a hex string means the file will be twice the size of the original as a minimum (no formatting, just straight series of 2 digit hex values for each byte).
Since the hex values came from a compressed file, there will be very little repetitive data in the hex string to compress, and no way the hex string can be compressed to less than the size of the original file since it starts with the handicap of being twice the size of the original file before starting.
Anytime I see someone asking to convert a file to hex or binary, there is greater than 90% chance they have no idea of what they are talking about or what they want to do.
For those who do understand what a hex representation of binary data means, and it is what they need, then their need has already been covered years ago by this thread.
Please, what is the solution to it and how can i go about it.Thanks.

maybe he's asking for a hash value? not sure though....Quote:

Don't ask me. I have no interest in it, actually.
ups, sorry ;)Quote:

Please elaborate!
What do you mean with converting an image to a short hex string??
Are you talking about MD5 or SHA-2 hash keys?
These can not be converted back to the original dataset.
not possible. if this would be possible we would not mess with jpg and formats like that but just have that very short strings to save our pictures. data compression is an advanced topic and there certainly is no magic new and easy compression that beats very well engineered algorithms like jpg by creating just a few bytes of output that still contain the same information. period.Quote:

will do it.
Please, help me.

That's a link to this thread, with sample code to convert a byte array (in this case an image) to a hexadecimal representation in text.
You still have not explained what your goal is.
Store the HEX text representation of an image in memory???
Well basically that is not going to happen.Quote:

I really don;t understand why someone would want to save an image as hex characters anyway? Seems like a waste of space and a waste of time.
