Android :: Best Approach To Transfer Large Video Files Into Byte Array?

Please could anyone suggest an approach for transferring a >2MB video from a ContentResolver into a Bytestream, without running out of memory?
See question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2599305/android-outofmemoryerror-w...

Here's the current code, which throws an OutOfMemoryError on the byteBuffer.write(buffer, 0, len) line when transferring large videos:

// get bytestream to upload videoByteArray = getBytesFromFile(cR, fileUriString);
public static byte[] getBytesFromFile(ContentResolver cR, String fileUriString) throws IOException { Uri tempuri = Uri.parse(fileUriString);
InputStream is = cR.openInputStream(tempuri);
byte[] b3 = readBytes(is); is.close(); return b3;
}
