Title: Uncompressed JPG files identified as bad
Post by: HamishNorton on May 29, 2016, 03:30:24 pm

I have a number of JPG files which display fine in every other image viewer I have tried but are identified as "bad" by JRiver. They were sent to me by a friend, and they appear to be literally uncompressed. Zero compression is allowed by the JPEG standard, but of course it isn't typical. Are you likely to get to this in the next version, or will I have to convert these?

Could you mail a sample to matt at jriver dot com?  Thanks.

Sample sent just now. I may be able to make your coding job easier - when I rename the unchanged file from "*.jpg" to "*.tif" JRiver handles it fine.

That probably means it is a tif file.

Yup, it's a TIF file.

I think I can make our header checking code find TIF files and ID them correctly even if they're named JPEG.  At least we'll hope...

Should all be better in the new build:
