cv2.imdecode() 从 base64 中的图像返回 None，mimetype image/jpeg 通过 Websockets 接收

Question

I use websockets to receive video frames. Image is encoded in base64 mimetype image/jpeg. I'm trying to convert image to np.ndarray. When I read image file code works correct. But when I'm trying to read image from socket stream, issue is occured.

        image_data = base64.b64decode(part.encoded_image)
        np_array = np.frombuffer(image_data, np.uint8)
        image = cv2.imdecode(np_array, cv2.IMREAD_UNCHANGED)

In docs cv2.imdecode() returns None in case when image is short or corrupted. My image is in HD format, 1280/720. Data isn't corrupted as I could successfully decode it using online converter. This is the beginning of received data:

data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAQAAAQABAAD/2wBDAAoHBwgHBgoICAgLCgoLDhgQDg0NDh0VFhEYIx8lJCIfIiEmKzcvJik0KSEiMEExNDk7Pj4+JS5ESUM8SDc9Pjv/

Answer 1

You have to skip data:image/jpeg;base64, to get only base64 data which will give you correct image data and cv2 will decode and display it.

In example I use split(',', 1) for this - it gives me data:image/jpeg;base64, in variable header and image data in data .

I use full image in code.

import base64
import numpy as np
import cv2

encoded_image = 'data:image/jpeg;base64,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'

header, data = encoded_image.split(',', 1)
#print('header:', header)
#print('  data:', data[:20])

image_data = base64.b64decode(data)
#print('result:', image_data[:20])

np_array = np.frombuffer(image_data, np.uint8)
#print(' array:', np_array[:2])

image = cv2.imdecode(np_array, cv2.IMREAD_UNCHANGED)
#print(' image:', image[:2])

cv2.imshow('image', image)
cv2.waitKey(0)

cv2.destroyAllWindows()

Result:

(face image with size 7x7)
