I have a video file and want to send it over socket. Video is send to the client but video is not playable and also video size received is 2 KB. And acutely video size is 43 MB. What is the problem?
Server:
import socket
try:
soc = socket.socket()
print('socked created.')
host = ''
port = 8080
soc.bind((host, port))
print('soc bound.')
soc.listen(10)
print('waiting for connecting...')
con, addr = soc.accept()
print('server connected to IP: ' + addr[0] + " port: " + str(addr[1]))
while True:
filename = input('enter filename: ')
file = open(filename, 'rb')
sendfile = file.read(9000000)
con.send(sendfile)
print("file has been send.")
break
con.close()
soc.close()
except socket.error as err:
print('error ', str(err))
client:
import socket
soc = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
print('socked created. waiting for connecting to server...')
server_address = ("192.168.1.3", 8080)
soc.connect(server_address)
print('connected to the server.')
while True:
recvfile = soc.recv(9000000)
savefilebyname = input("enter file name: ")
openfile = open(savefilebyname, 'wb')
openfile.write(recvfile)
openfile.close()
break
print("File has been received.")
soc.close()
