Files from Olympus mju 770SW are causing error
Last modified: 2008-01-15 13:24:49 UTC
Please describe the problem: An attempt to open any file from my new Olympus mju 770SW (new 10m underwater one) results in the following message: Opening '/home/petr/_foto-rozdelit/pb-u770/20070221_123219-pb-u770.jpg' failed: Plug-In could not open image I can view these files in gqview and view & edit them in digikam. I can still work with files from my other cameras in my copy of Gimp, so Gimp itself appears to be OK. Files edited and saved in digikam are still causing the same error. Even images at lowest resolution - 142 KB - are affected. I am using Gimp ver 2.2.13, under Debian Steps to reproduce: 1. download any of files located at http://www.baum.com.au/mix/gimp_error/images.html and open it with Gimp Actual results: An attempt to open any file from my new Olympus mju 770SW (new underwater one) results in the following message: Opening '/home/petr/_foto-rozdelit/pb-u770/20070221_123219-pb-u770.jpg' failed: Plug-In could not open image When I start Gimp from the command line the result is: canopus:~/qq/qq-qq> gimp qqq.jpg /home/programy/dcraw -i '/home/qq/qq-qq/qqq.jpg' /home/qq/qq-qq/qqq.jpg: Cannot decode OLYMPUS u770SW,S770SW JPEG images. /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins/jpeg: fatal error: Segmentation fault canopus:~/qq/qq-qq> Expected results: Exactly same. Does this happen every time? Yes, no exception. Other information: Olympus mju 770SW is likely to become available in most countries in comming weeks - Australia seems to get them unusually early so my problem can be treated as an early warning.
Seems to crash in libexif, in exif_set_sshort(). You should report this bug to the libexif maintainers. Will keep the bug report open for a while, perhaps someone wants to investigate more closely...
