Try could try to use uchar* instead in the function declaration. But it's more likely that you can not make use of 8 bit datatypes, since they do not exist natively on a GPU. There's on 32 bit registers and that's it. So for example you can use a combination out of div and mod and switch() in order to emulate what you do with the cast. Anyway, welcome to my world Smile

Thanks for the tips atom. I'll try to rewrite it. The code behavior is still not making much sense, but I'll try your sugestions.
