Looks like it is pixel data, 1 bit per pixel, for a 128x64 lcd display. It is just data that when written to a disply, produces a picture.

Put it in a file and read it in?

Or DATA statements.

0x00 can be 0

Other 0x.. can be &h..

Untested, but maybe this will display the image?

dim integer bitpat
cls
restore
for y = 0 to 63
for x = 0 to 15 ' 8 pixels per byte read
read bitpat
if bitpat = 999 then end ' unexpected end of data
for b = 7 to 0 step -1
if bitpat AND 2^b then pixel x*8 + 7 - b, y, rgb(white)
next b
next x
next y
end

Now I have tried it... It is just to slow... would a bitmap be faster

Perhaps you could use BLIT so that you load it once then copy it into a memory buffer. Then you can BLIT it back very fast.

Can you give me an example of how etc..

First, I don't know what display you are using. Not all displays support BLIT.
Supported displays are
VGA
SSD1963
ILI9341
ILI9488 (if MISO connected)
ST7789_320

You'll have to read the manual too, as I have very little experience with graphics. This should be easy enough though.

BLIT READ b,x,y,w,h
works with buffer number b
It copies the displayed block starting at x,y that is w pixels wide and h pixels high

BLIT WRITE b,x,y
works with buffer number b
It copies the block stored in buffer b to display co-ordinates x,y

BLIT CLOSE b
destroys buffer b and reclaims the memory.

You can have up to 8 buffers (1-8).

Or make it a file (e.g. bmp)?

I expect faster than the nested loops doing pixel-at-a-time.

That would make it much faster loading initially, but I suspect that the eventual idea is to produce a display with a moving pointer (why else would a picture of a VU meter be wanted?). In that case you'd probably want to blit the image back and redraw the pointer in a new position during each frame blanking period to avoid flicker. I'm only guessing, as there's no details to go on. :)

Yes. Mixtel90 your are absolutely correct.

I found an Arduino version on the web and i am wanting to do this on the picomite.
It was just that I didn't understand how the arduino PROGMEM worked and thanks for that.

here is the complete Arduino code.

Adafruit_SH1106 displayLeft(OLED_RESET); // reset required for SH1106
Adafruit_SH1106 displayRight(OLED_RESET); // reset required for SH1106

int left = A0; // analog input for outside audio source
int right = A1;
int hMeter = 65; // horizontal center for needle animation
int vMeter = 85; // vertical center for needle animation (outside of dislay limits)
int rMeter = 80; // length of needle animation or arch of needle travel
float MeterValueLeft;
float MeterValueRight;

const int sampleWindow = 5; // sample window width in mS (50 mS = 20Hz)

unsigned int sampleLeft;
unsigned int sampleRight;
unsigned int PeakLeft = 400;
unsigned int PeakRight = 400;
unsigned int fallTimeLeft;
unsigned int fallTimeRight;

int static_variable = 0;

// VU meter background mask image:

I am wanting to do this on an ILI9341 and put both channels on the display at once side by side.

Sorry, Arduino code may as well be Martian hieroglyphics to me.
I'd try what I suggested. Start by writing a routine to draw a pointer that follows the arc of the scale. You want its end position to be in a variable that makes some sort of sense to you, say 0-100. Write a loop that puts values into the register and run it to try to get the pointer moving as expected. Don't bother about image flicker, jus BLIT the image onto the screen and draw the pointer. It may look horrible. Once you have it working you can synchronise it with the frame flyback period so that the meter changes during the "dead" time of the display.

As to how the VU meter maths works, don't ask me. I'm no programmer. :)

Arduino PROGMEM just means put it in flash.

(Partly because many of their boards have tiny RAM.)

You could try turning it into a single character in a custom font.

Will SAVE IMAGE BITMAP convert it or is that only for saving a complete image from a LCD display? Something I've never used. Perhaps that could be used then the resulting BMP cropped on a PC.

@asknik2022
Which display are you using? It would help us if we knew.

SAVE IMAGE file$ [,x, y, w, h]
- If the display is SPI and has SDO connected to MISO **. Also works on PicoVGA and MMB4W.

Run @vegipete's program then:-

SAVE IMAGE "VU_Meter.BMP", 0, 0, 128, 64

That is where the above pic came from.
That can then be loaded to a sprite when the program runs.

On recent Pico RCx versions no screen is needed, the image can go to a frame buffer and be saved.

SAVE COMPRESSED IMAGE "VU_Meter.BMP", 0, 0, 128, 64

** For ILI9488 a direct connection won't work, see the threads on how to connect.

The ILI9341 is almost always ok. I say "almost" because there have been occasional cases in the past when Chinese sellers have sent ILI9488 instead - lots of confusion.
