I don't know for sure, but a few weeks back when a LabVIEW programmer was showing me the cRIO code that packages the Dashboard data it looked to me like the camera image was not being packed into the 50-element array but rather was being updated separately at a higher rate. Second hand info: I asked a team member who had seen the dashboard camera video and he said it looked to be updating a lot faster than once per second. This was with unmodified (default) 2010 FRC LabVIEW framework code.
