Also have a look at the inbuild encoders, which do not require an ANE and are 
pretty fast:

PNGEncoderOptions
https://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/PNGEncoderOptions.html

JPEGEncoderOptions
https://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/JPEGEncoderOptions.html

var compressor : PNGEncoderOptions = new PNGEncoderOptions();
compressor.fastCompression = true; // optional


var bitmapData : BitmapData;
bitmapData.encode(new Rectangle(0, 0, bitmapData.width, bitmapData.height), 
compressor, byteArray);

Betreff: Re: Quick CameraRoll Question

Quick update:

I had a short email exchange with Distriqt, and the actual situation of their 
"IMAGE" ANE (JPG/PNG decoder/encoder) is this:

"There is no performance gains on Windows or macOS for the image ANE currently.

It is one of the ANEs on our agenda for this year."

Actually I'm mostly intersted in a Windows and OSx version; that's why I had 
checked with Distriqt and that's what there statement is addressing.
Cheers
Hans
