System OS:
Windows XP Prof version 2002, SP3

ImageMagick Versions Tried:
ImageMagick-6.7.2-3-Q16-windows-static.exe
ImageMagick-6.7.2-3-Q16-windows-dll.exe
ImageMagick-6.7.2-3-Q8-windows-dll.exe

IMDisplay Version 1.0

I am having difficulty using Convert or ImageMagicKDisplay with some photos.

When invoking the line:
convert.exe -resize 50%% -quality 75 image.jpg new_image.jpg

the convert application simply returns to the command prompt and no file is created. The same command works with different photos, so it is confusing. Also, when attempting to simply issue the command:

convert.exe -verbose -identify image.jpg

All that is returned is a command prompt for the photos in question. While others do produce information about the photo.


Additionally, when trying to open them with ImageMagicKDisplay, the application crashes with the error:

IMDisplay MFC Application has encountered a problem and needs to close.

The same images open with GIMP, office viewer, faxviewer and SnagIT.

Here is one of the images in question:

On IM 6.7.2.3 Q16 (HDRI) Mac OSX Tiger, I get


display IMAG0070.jpg
Segmentation fault


and also when doing


convert IMAG0070.jpg IMAG0070.png
Segmentation fault



I suspect your jpg file is malformed in some way that is not according to standards.

We can reproduce the problem you posted and will have an updated Windows binary release sometime this weekend. Thanks.

Seems fixed now on IM 6.7.2.4 Q16 Mac OSX Tiger. Don't know about Windows.
