lcd write to other formats (not PICT)
Is it possible to write the contents of an lcd object to a different file format than PICT? I would like to save them as jpg or ping, something that could be displayed directly in a web browser.
Thanks.
If you have Jitter, use jit.lcd rather than LCD and you can output to
any QT format, including png or jpeg.

yes, I'm using jit.lcd. So you can just send a "writejpg" (or would it be "writejpeg"?) message and it will do the trick?
sent the matrix output to jit.qt.record or jit.vcr.
im not certain if jit.lcd has its own record/write to disk options,
but jitter certainly has.

I have been using Grab on a pwindow with border 0. Creates a .tiff file
with saves to other formats I think.

FWIW, jit.matrix's exportimage method is probably more suited to this
application. jit.qt.record/jit.vcr write to a movie container which
can have a JPEG as a media sample within the movie.

Thanks very much for your excellent ideas. Perfect solution to send jit.lcd to a jit.matrix and then exportimage.
