Please file a bug at bugs.adobe.com/jira so we can see if we can squeeze loadBytes onto SWFLoader before 3.0 closes down.

To answer your question Alex, no we are not using JPEGEncoder in our app, that was just to do a test that could easily get us the ByteArray data that we know is a valid image. I will try the listener approach. I guess I thought that wouldn't be needed since the data is already loaded. Regardless, to get it working in the meantime we sent everything thing back from the server as base64 encoded. We then used a Base64Image class (which extends Image) to display the image. http://flexlib.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/flexlib/controls/Base64Image .as <http://flexlib.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/flexlib/controls/Base64Imag e.as> (You will see it uses the same approach as yours to load the ByteArray) It works very well and makes me think that it could be a model for extending the Image component to receive a ByteArray as a source. It really should be that easy! Thanks for your thoughts. - Kevin On Nov 2, 2007, at 12:22 PM, Jim Hayes wrote: Yes, that would be nice! For what I've been doing a synchronous "convertToBitmapData(bytes:ByteArray):BitmapData" would be really nice as well. If only because using a "loader" seems a bit "wrong" when you've already loaded (or otherwise have) a byteArray. I have to admit that I've not actually checked the source code to see if I could find/copy that kind of function, however, since I do now have everything working with loader. Thanks Alex!
