Title: JRiver breaking JPG display
Post by: thijazi on July 13, 2014, 12:28:32 am
After installing JRiver MC19 on my Windows 7 Ultimate and Windows 8.1 Pro machines (64bit) I noticed 2 things happen on both machines:

1- Windows Media Center suddenly lost the ability to see the JPG images in my photo folders, the folders in My Pictures themselves show, but the JPG files disappeared, I could only see BMP and GIF files.

2- Windows 8.1 photo app (Metro, touch UI) also lost the ability to display photos in JPG format.

After messing about with this issue for days, I found the following registry items were flawed:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT
.jpeg and also .jpg had blank "Content Type" and "Percieved Type" string values
I changed Content Type to Image/Jpeg
I changed Percieved Type says Image

That fixed the issue... This happened on all machines at home where MC19 was installed..

Do an Internet search on file associations.   In MC, you can set them under File Types.
