Sending the video files & images

[stserakhau]

Hi guys,

who knows how to send video / image messages ?

I tried these cases, but nothing arrived (text messages is ok, sending document (mp4 as file for download) is ok)

Code which persist thumbnail file

BufferedImage img = java2DFrameConverter.convert(frame);
ImageIO.write(img, "jpg", file);

Case 1

VideoMessage message = VideoMessage.builder()
                        .decodedMedia(FileUtils.readFileToByteArray(file)) // mp4 data
                        .thumbnail(thumbnail) // byte array of thumbnail jpg
                        .caption(fce.getContextPath())  // path like '/a/b/c/d/e/file.mp4'
                        .width(fce.option("width")) // 800
                        .height(fce.option("height")) // 600
                        .duration(fce.option("duration")) // time in milliseconds
                        .mimetype("video/mp4")
                        .build();
ContactJid contact = ...;
this.whatsapp.sendMessage(contact, message);

Case 2

ImageMessage message = ImageMessage.builder()
                                .caption(caption)
                                .decodedMedia(mediaResult.data)
                                .width(mediaResult.width)
                                .height(mediaResult.height)
                                .mimetype("image/jpg")
                                .build()
ContactJid contact = ...;
this.whatsapp.sendMessage(contact, message);

Can you send a case that doesn't work and the media you are trying to send so I can try?
