Looking at the TightVNC source, it seems that JPEG is implemented as a subencoding of TightVNC, rather than as something separate. Still, it may be usable for what I have in mind. More detail here... I have a tiny VNC server embedded in a modified version of the XawTV webcam utility. At the moment it makes no attempt to compress the data, other than breaking it down into tiles, sending the most-changed ones first, and throttling back when changes between frames are insignificant. It works fairly well over broadband connections, but implementing compression on each tile would further reduce bandwidth use and possibly make it tolerable over analogue modems. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- from: Jonathan "Chromatix" Morton mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (not for attachments) website: http://www.chromatix.uklinux.net/vnc/ geekcode: GCS$/E dpu(!) s:- a20 C+++ UL++ P L+++ E W+ N- o?
