this is not really a bug, since in the documentation of loadImage it says that only
uncompressed tga images are read, while the saved tga files are compressed (and tiff
images are not read at all, it seems).

However, it would be very nice to be able to read frames generated by processing.
Personnaly I would need this for video processing where I'm generating masks in processing
first, before using them to generate frames of a video in a second step. Up to now I need to
uncompress all saved frames using the ImageMagick convert utility...

The best solution of course would be to be able to read compressed tga files.
Thank you very much in advance,
Fritz

have you tried reading the compressed tga files?

fixed for revision 0115. processing can now read its own RLE-compressed TGA files, as well as
uncompressed TIFF files written with save/saveFrame.
