I'm pretty sure that flash/flex doesn't have the low level decompressor (if
thats the right word for bitmaps!) for .bmp, which would make some sense in
terms of it being largely focussed on internet apps.
Maybe you'd need to write your own, e.g. read the bitmap in as a bytearray and
get the raw pixel values out of the bits/bytes (they're probably just there to
read, I don't think bitmaps are compressed, but could be wrong on that).
Personally I wouldn't bother, unless you really made me :)

Subject: [flexcoders] Photo Viewer Sample App-BMP File Error
Hi
I am trying to use the adobe PhotoViewer sample app and customize it.
Instead of using just jpg files I am trying to pass in .BMP files. But
somehow the .bmp files don't get loaded and I see a broken image. It
works fine for .gif,.png.
Does anyone know the reason for it and maybe a possible solution for it
Thank You,
Tarun
