Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, dear programmers,

I have some rare reading errors with packbit compressed files. I get no error message, but the images have some small image corruptions where pixels are shifted to the right a little bit. Sometimes only one line, sometimes maybe 300 or more. The next time I read the image, the display is without errors.

Are there any known errors like this for packbits? Doesn't have packbits an error correction?

best regards
Bernd
