cant convert bytes to KB

Question

I have an android videoplayer which displays all videos on SD card with name and file size, but the size is displayed in bytes and I have not been able to convert it to KB,MB,GB etc.I tried dividing the int value by 1024 but its not working.It prints the wrong value. Can anyone help ?

Answer 1

You can first use the length method to get the size of the file. then do it this way -

videoColumnIndex = videoCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(MediaStore.Video.Media.SIZE);

long fileSizeInBytes = videoCursor.getLong(videoColumnIndex)
// Convert the bytes to Kilobytes (1 KB = 1024 Bytes)
long fileSizeInKB = fileSizeInBytes / 1024;
// Convert the KB to MegaBytes (1 MB = 1024 KBytes)
long fileSizeInMB = fileSizeInKB / 1024;
