I know! It just work if the content data is a PhotoLib image.
It's not the best way, but is helping me a lot!

Daniel,
This reverse engineering of the file stream format works until the sequence
0x44 0x42 0x4C 0x4B 0x00 0x00 is image data and not a file stream block
marker.
In other words, this reverse engineeering of the file stream format isn't
reliable...

It's strange the way Palm desktop works.. sometimes it put the photos into
"My Images" folder, sometimes not.
But it puts the photos in pdb format in other backup folder. Looking for a
solution I opened the pdb photo and the foto in jpg format in a Hex editor
and started compare... Then I found a way to convert them.
Converting that PDB file to JPG:
*If you use a hex editor you can see that the firsts bytes are the picture
name in the photolib.
From the start delete all bytes up to find the sequence:
0x44 0x42 0x4C 0x4B 0x00 0x00
delete all these bytes and delete the two next bytes too.
Now, all others bytes must be in the file, except some some sequences you'll
find in the
middle..
Find again other sequences (equal)
0x44 0x42 0x4C 0x4B 0x00 0x00
and again delete the two next bytes.
Save the edited file with .jpg and you can see the image!!
Daniel
