How to convert System.IO.Stream into an Image?

Question

How can I convert a Stream of an image (which I retrieved using the Album.GetArt method from the MediaLibrary) into a usable Image in my application?

Answer 1

Easy... var img = Bitmap.FromStream(stream);

Answer 2

You can run from Bitmaps straight into the arms of Images.

Image image = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(stream);

From whence you can do other operations:

image.Save(System.IO.Path.GetPathRoot() + "\\Image.jpg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);

Answer 3

For phone this should work:

BitmapImage image = new BitmapImage();
image.SetSource(stream);

Answer 4

Great job! I tested this with:

Stream streamF = new MemoryStream(); // stream stored in a data file ( FileDB).


Bitmap image = new Bitmap(streamF);
ConsoleWriteImage(image);

//REMEMBER = in console App you must use < using System.Drawing; >
//to handle images but you can't use Form class for present image into some Canvas.
