Hi
Does anyone know where I can get an app that reads .cbr files like CDisplay

I found one called ComiX but it is for the PalmOS.

I would prefer a free app if possible. First post complete

Thanks..

CBR and CBZ file are just (RAR -or ZIP ) files which just contain a series of JPG images are hey not ?

What if you expand the compressed file and then just use the inbuilt viewer to scroll through them (slide show etc.)

Would this not do ?

Alternativly you could mofied either a java or similar applet to show the images in sequence.

If I have not appreciated the problem here... then please let me know.

Any help?

Yeah but I am just lazy... I guess.

Anyways that is Plan B. In case I don't find anythign I would have to do that.. create folder, unzip, read - delete - repeat

Something like CDisplay would have been nice.. Next page and everything... I was just looking to see if someone has already built something like that.

Thanks for replying...

Tried it - doesn't work
the images are 1000X1000 pixels or something

opening that in the image viewer does a stupid fit to screen
Zoom option gets disabled - can't see anything.

Bummer

Reader app anyone ? Back to plead mode ....

wow! thank's for the infos on how to read a comic book jpeg using GView. It has some awesome options that the normal pic viewer doesn't have. Thank's!!!

Though I can't seem to zoom in more than 100% of the actual image.

Goddamit!!
Not enough memory with GView also. The .cbr images are the PC variety - high res.

Can this be solved with a 1Gig M2 card ? I just have the default mem + 64 MB card that came along with it.
Waiting for the 1Gig card price to drop...

Any other ideas ?

Not sure I can give you any better option than to try and get hold of samller files to start with ! sorry.
