Unable to Process JPEG image on 7.4-26103

[Chunkywizard]

Hi there,

I am having my Music scan terminated unexpectedly during the Artwork Scan. This is happening on 7.4-26103 but I saw it on the last couple of nightlies I ran as well. I did a search of the forum and found this problem twice before. One related it to Virus Scanning (I don't run a virus scanner on my WHS) and the other suggested that you should clear the cache, which I have done to no avail. I don't think this is related to my early problems starting SC (which are now solved) as I saw this before those occured. The log is at http://www.toppy.org.uk/~chunkywizar...ox/scanner.log. I scanned three times and each time it has terminated early, on a different cover each time. The scan used to work on earlier builds of 7.4 (i'm afraid I can't remember exact version numbers)

Any Ideas?

At first glance, this looks to me like a corrupted JPEG image (either a defective one, or one accidentally labelled ".jpg" which is actually a PNG or some other image type).

Unfortunateley, the SC log doesn’t tell the file name or whether its inside a tag or a separate image file (like folder.jpg).

I’m a little unsure where you can switch on logging the filename, you might want to try setting "Settings -> Advanced -> Logging" to "Debug" for "scan", "scan.import" and "scan.scanner".

Then stop SC, empty the artwork cache (usually C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SqueezeCenter\Cache\Artwork\ on Win/XP machines), start SC again.

Then try again (doing a full rescan) and check the log.

If it shows the name of the file(s) in question, try to manually repair (or delete, or replace) the faulty image.

Thanks for the ideas. I could actually remember all 3 of the jpgs that the scan stopped at so I reworked those three and the scan completed! They all displayed correctly in windows but I re saved them in GIMP and re embedded them in the mp3s and everything seems fine. If I have any issues again I will use your suggestion. Thanks

Glad you got it solved!
