Hi all,
I'm coding a program to show a serie of jpeg from a network camera in a
TImage.
Following suggestions of this newsgroup, I used a TThread to get a jpeg and
to show one after another.
I used the Synchronize method to update the TImage content.
Now the question:
I see that every time the TImage is updated using Synchronize, as a said
before, the Thread seems freezed until the updating is done.
Well, I read something about PostMessage/SendMessage to communicate from
Thread to Main Application, so the thread can ask the main application to
update the TImage and it doesn't wait for the updating is over.
I tried to manage it, but I'm lost.
Maybe somebody have a sample or an url or a code snip... I really hope it.

Thanks anyway

Lapo
