I’m having issues when displaying images on JFrame (never used it before and i’m getting confused)
When I display the first image it seems to work but then when new images reach the Client the image doesn’t change at all and idk why.

Also I was planning on making this like a clock, for the moment I’m using :
“img = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(deserializedObject.getData().get(7)));”
so it’s only reading the seconds image (format is HH:MM:SS, the “:” also have a image)

Can someone help me on how to fix this?

import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.image.BufferedImage;
import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.net.DatagramPacket;
import java.net.DatagramSocket;
import java.net.InetAddress;

public class Cliente extends JFrame {
    private BufferedImage img;
    private JLabel picLabel;
    private BufferedImage lastimg = null;

    public Cliente() throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
        String hostname = "127.0.0.1";
        int port = 12345;

        InetAddress address = InetAddress.getByName(hostname);
        DatagramSocket socket = new DatagramSocket();

        byte[] buffer = new byte[2048 * 15]; //temporary size for now since i know its enough for the images

        DatagramPacket request = new DatagramPacket(buffer, buffer.length, address, port);
        socket.send(request);

        JFrame frame = new JFrame("Clock");
        JPanel jPanel = new JPanel();
        frame.setSize(800, 600);
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        picLabel = new JLabel();
        jPanel.add(picLabel);
        frame.add(jPanel);
        frame.setVisible(true);

        while (true) {
            DatagramPacket response = new DatagramPacket(buffer, buffer.length);
            socket.receive(response);
            System.out.println("Resposta recevida");
            ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(response.getData());
            ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream(bais);
            PDU deserializedObject = (PDU) ois.readObject();
            ois.close();
            bais.close();

            img = ImageIO.read(new ByteArrayInputStream(deserializedObject.getData().get(7)));
            if (img.equals(lastimg)){ //Temporary just to check if image was the same as last one (its not)
                System.out.println("Imagem repetida -----------------------------------------");
            }
            lastimg = img;

            picLabel.setIcon(new ImageIcon(img));
            jPanel.repaint();
            frame.repaint();
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        try {
            new Cliente();
        } catch (IOException | ClassNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }
}

I tried many options but nothing seems to work, maybe I’m overthinking it
