The pictures taken by the camera are already in jpeg format. Why would you want to compress them to jpeg again? If you want to send the picture at its original size, just send the original file. If you want a scaled-down version, there are ways to decompress the image directly to a smaller size (see BitmapFactory). You could then recompress this smaller image to a new jpeg before sending it. If you're only running out of memory after processing a few images, you might also want to try calling Bitmap.recycle() when you're done processing each bitmap. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
