> On node-red i want to subscrive to the tipic "IR/Image and show the image on the node-red dashboard. Is it possible to do it?

Yes, it is possible.

hook the node up to a ui-template node and set the src as the string

PS: this is covered many times on the forum e.g: [How to MQTT image from Raspi using Base64 and Template node - #4 by Steve-Mcl](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-mqtt-image-from-raspi-using-base64-and-template-node/42142/4), [Displaying an image in dashboard from a Url - #5 by Steve-Mcl](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/displaying-an-image-in-dashboard-from-a-url/27912/5)
