IP camera: How to save raw MJPEG frame to disk?

[JKSH]

Hello,

I have an IP camera streaming JPEG-compressed images. I tried to use IMAQdx Get Image Data.vi to get the raw bytes and save it to disk, but I can't produce a valid JPEG file.

In the code below, test2.jpg is always a valid JPEG file around 69 KB, while test1.jpg is always an invalid file around 65 KB (I tried both big-endian and little-endian settings, with the same results).

Any ideas?

Gah, rookie mistake... I forgot to disable "prepend array or string size" in Write to Binary File.

I also don't need to convert the byte array into a string.

All working now!
