View 1 RepliesFile I/O And Registry :: AVI Header - Program To Download And Play AVI Files The Files Are Large In Size And Long Time Wise
Dec 11, 2011I wrote a program to download and play AVI files the files are large in size and long time wise. I have the files playing as they are being downloaded but i can't see how long the file is or seek reliably. i was reading that the AVI headers are in the last 512kb of the AVI file *why would't they put it at the start* lol so my question is is there a way to download the last 512Kb of the file i'm downloading. i have the Bytes Read and Length of the file while its downlaoding i'm just not sure where to go from there, or how to do it atleast. If i had the length in time of the Avi file i could set the trackbar to be able to seek properly. or if someone has an idea how i could get the time of the video by using fps and some math i could prob do it that way too but idk how i would tell how i can find how many kb are in the fps i'm sure it changes so think that way is't going to be reliable. how to get the last 512kb would be the best option not sure if it can be done even.

Download A File With A Download Timeout?
Feb 4, 2010I want to download thousands of files from the web and save them locally. What is the most efficient way? It is important the failures timeout within 10 seconds.
Is there a better way to stream one stream into another? Maybe a smaller buffer, like 1024 bytes at a time, is more efficient for large files?

View 6 RepliesUse The WebBrowserControl To Download A Program Generated PDF File Without The File Save As Dialog
Sep 15, 2011I am writing a Windows Form program to automatically download and store generated PDF reports from a web site using the WebBrowser Control. The web site uses Ajax to link an icon back to the source aspx file which then returns a PDF file.
The problem I have is that the WebBrowser control brings up the File Save As dialog box when the PDF file is returned and I can find no way of handling this to cature and save the returned file. I have found other examples of how to manage this using the Navagating event to validate the extension of the file that is being accessed (e.g. [URL] and, if not an HTM, file then use the HTTP Web control to directly download the file. Unfortunately this will not work as the call references a .aspx page.

Creating Download Link To A File On A File Server
Oct 11, 2011I'm looking for a way to (easily, by preference ;)) create a download link to a file on a separate file server.The situation is as follows: the application I'm developing (asp.net 2.0 in vb.net but I have a similar issue in c#, either solution works for me) will be run internally for a company.As is good practice, the file storage and web application are on two separate servers.I basically need to be able to create a download link to a file, the only available URL i have to access the file is servernamefolder1folder2folder3file.txt (can be any sort of file)[code]Which doesn't work for obvious reasons. It used to be set up to write that file to the application path itself and that worked perfectly, but it isn't good practice and that's why I'm changing it (or trying to).I read solutions about creating a download page and then having a table in your DB which holds the links and returns the proper web URL for download but the time constraint I am faced with unfortunately doesn't allow me to develop that.
Assuming I can provide a string with the full filepath to the file like the above, what is the easiest way to just create a link that, when clicked, downloads the document? I have 0 admin rights in this environment. That really isn't helping me. Let's assume I am given the correct link like above and have the appropriate file access rights and such.The above example does work in IE, but not in Firefox and Chrome. IE converts it to a file://servername/... link which does what it's supposed to, but FF and Chrome both actively decided that this is unsafe and have disabled it from their browsers.

Asp.net - Export To Excel File As .zip To Reduce File Size - Compress Xmldata Before Sending It To The Client?
Jul 8, 2010I like to compress the xmldata before the data is provided to the client as an excel file. I am trying to compress and deliver it as a .zip file. its not working Here's my code below. I tried compressing it, converting it to bytes etc etc. The issue with below code is, the XSL transformation is not happening properly and the output excel file is raw xml with some .net exception at the end. (that's what I see on the .xls file that's downloaded at the end) Before I started working on compression my below code was working fine that gives properly formatted excel file from the xml input. the excel file is so nice you can't even tell it was from XML.

Get To A Webpage That Has A File Link To Download A File?

Have Program Download File From Non-file Web Address
Feb 2, 2010I have an account with a website and I want my software to automatically download files that are generated.
I go to the website and login, and then I click a link that downloads a file. Unfortunately, I can't use the My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile function, because the first argument of that function is a file address (http:// www . website . html/file.txt). Instead of that, the address if I look at the link to download the file is something like this (http:// www . website . com/pid=1&output=csv&action=view&pview=pview).
You see how this won't work? I'm looking to use my software to automatically download the file that's available, but I can't use the DownloadFile function.
Text - Ensure That A File Has Unique Line If The Size Of The File Is Very Big
Apr 4, 2012Language: vb.net
File size: 1GB, and stuff.
Encoding of the text file: UTF8 (so each character is represented by different numbers of bytes).
Collation: UnicodeCI (when several characters are essentially the same, the most popular version will be the one unique.). I think I know how to handle t his one.
Because each character is represented by different numbers of bytes and each line has different numbers of characters, the number of bytes in each line also vary.
I suppose we have to compute hash for each line. We also need to store buffers location where the line each. Then we have to compare buffers. Then we will check whether the same line shows up or not.

I know how to read and write text files just fine, so I don't need help with that. What I don't know is how to archive a file based on file size, or how to keep up to 3 copies of the files?
