Try removing `-compress rle` command. I know that there is a bug in netpbm when using rle or scanline compression when creating images. Imagemagick might have that same bug. > ps. > there seems to be a bug in plucker where if the home record is an > image(zlib compressed in this case), it causes the viewer to produce an > error about not enough memory and gets it all confused. Do you actually mean that the home record IS an image, or HAS an image? If it is an image, I don't think it's supposed to work that way :) > Also are there any plans on using non-tbmp format in plucker? Like > embedding jpegs directly or something. I've played with this idea before. It was tempting becuase Sony has the (supposedly) built in hardware jpeg library support. Unfortunatly they built it with such a stupid API, it will only work if you're writing to or from an external memory card, not to or from a memory handle or a bitmap pointer. So in order for this to work, we first copy the specific image into the MS, then re-read it to tell the API to load the image, and then it's displayed. The end result is that it actually takes longer to handle jpegs and even then there were random bugs in the images! I was so mad at the Sony API I kicked it across the room and said "Bah, to hell with this!" :) I have attempted to port libpng over (similar to how zlib was ported) into a library on the palm, and so far that method has proved to be much more promising; but far from complete. -- Adam McDaniel Array.org Calgary, AB, Canada _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
