I am compressing 3D opengl raw pixel data using jpeg library and sending the compressed data as jpeg images from app1 to another opengl app (app2) over an IP link. I have setup opengl texture mapping on the receiver side (app2) and it works OK with raw pixel data. I want to use the same setup or something similar to display JPEG. Will I have to decompress and get back the original data and display it? Can I somehow bypass decompression?
Thanks in advance.
