Saving bitmap from JPEG

[ethaanlau]

Hi Bodmer,

I'm trying to use the TJpg_Decoder library to display a jpeg to a tft display. I have it working, but the only issue is that it's very slow (I'm using the Adafruit GFX library with the Adafruit RA8875 board). To speed up drawing, I want to save all pixel data in a bitmap so I can use the hardware accelerated function for the RA8875 to scan in pixels line by line instead of by block.

Is there a way to store the entire decoded JPEG data in an array?

Any help from others who have had similar issues would be greatly appreciated!

The simplest option is to load the image into an app such as MS Paint and save as a bmp file then convert to an array using an online tool.
