input | The byte array to convert. |
format | The pixel format of the image data. |
width | The width of the image data in pixels. |
height | The height of the image data in pixels. |
rowBytes | The length of a single row in bytes. |
Encodes this array into PNG format.
The returned byte array is the PNG "file". You can write them to disk to get the PNG file,
send them over the network, etc.
The encoded PNG data will
contain alpha channel for RGBA32
, ARGB32
textures, and no alpha channel for RGB24
textures.
For single-channel red textures ( R8
, R16
, RFloat
and RHalf
), the encoded PNG data will be in grayscale.
PNG data will not contain gamma correction or color profile information.
This method is thread safe.
Passing rowBytes of 0 will calculate the row length in bytes automatically.
