| Basically a good Idea but I think you have to wait till Flash 8.5 .
There is no method I am aware of to serialize bitmap data fast.
In Flash 8.5 you can use binary arrays and send those , flash 8 is not =
able to send/receive binary data and interpret it

From what I understand it is possible in 8 but not easily done. you can=
encode binary data to form an image, but you will have to code the image=
encoding/decoding functions in AScript. There is also the issue of how y=
our binary data is encoded, RLE or JPG(*rather difficult). To make it eas=
ier go with RLE but the size is much greater than that of JPG or like Ger=
ard said wait for 8.5.

| I think RLE isn't the best soloution for encoding bitmapData. The reason I
say that is because getPixel gives you an integer with an undetermined
length for one pixel for example it might be 210222 and another it would be
2221022 . so pretty much you would have to encode it pixel by pixel i.e.
(210,32) <---- same size as 210222. both 6 characters in length.
rather then concatnating a whole bunch of the pixels which would give you
better compression i.e.
210222 + 2221022 = 2102222221022 or using RLE 210,62 10,22
but then you would lose the length of the integer for each pixel. i.e.
this can go both ways.
px1: 210222 px2: 2221022 or px1: 2102222 px2: 221022
the only way I can think of a way around this would be when your looping
through the width and height of the image and using getPixel you keep track
of the length of each integer returned by pixel data and then encode that
using RLE aswell. and when your decoding the RLE values on the other end you
have an idea of how to devide up each pixel.
anyone have any thoughts about that, am I missing anything?
