Unable to load JPG images due to "Unsupported JPEG process: SOF type 0xcb"

See original GitHub issue

Before starting the bug report - you also save my day 😃

For a few images I get the error message

Unsupported JPEG process: SOF type 0xcb

[ERROR] [2014.03.26 09:53:49]  Loading the image failed  : /iad/styria/prod/htdocs/uploads/20140301_123857_2363439246058001517.jpg [Environment: Host: "www.willhaben.at" Action: "swfuploadimage" Action Class name: "null" Sequence #: "135192664" Referer: "null" URL: "/swfuploadimage" RemoteIP: "212.152.181.235" User-Agent: "Shockwave Flash" jsessionid=3AD5B5AC

Not an expert but

it might stem from an unsupported compression type “Lossless (sequential arith)”
it might not stem at all from your library

I attached the offending image

I see this old issue is still open. Just going to mention that with the code from this issue: https://github.com/haraldk/TwelveMonkeys/issues/197

The exception is logged and the image is processed properly.

@KoenDG Thanks for looking into this and taking the time to test! 😀

Perhaps we should add the code from #197 to the documentation on the home page?

Best regards,

Sounds like a good idea. Though I’m not super familiar with the code and the internals of image processing. I’m going to assume this is good for all formats, save perhaps SVG or others that more heavily rely on “extra syntax” if that makes sense?
