How do i display an image onthe front panel...without buffering ? (dsd format...)

[P.Rayne]

Hello all...
i have got to the DS Send Image.vi and i see that i can send an image
and receive it too..but the catch is that the data is in a "dsd"
format. any idea how i could get to this format, or what am i doing
wrong and is it that i dont really need this format?

i see that there are a few Read/Write JPEG file.vi's too but they have
proved of little use to me.

could anybody throw some light on this please...

thank you,
-U

If you are not using buffered datasocket, sending the picture is just like sending any complex data like an array. Have you tried just removing the buffering part of the example?

The dsd (datasocket data file) is an NI datatype and there are no documents on the format for this file type.
