XnView Software

Hi Hawkse...

As far as I know, no solution was found except to rename or delete the JBIG2DEC plug-in. Since I don't have any JBIG images, I just renamed the plug-in "jbig2dec.exe" to "_jbig2dec.exe". It's located in the XnView\Plugins directory.

I'm 100% certain that my system is virus/spyware free.

Even tho' I didn't think it would effect anything, I went ahead & uninstalled Mozilla (since I need to upgrade it to the latest version anyway). Uninstalling Mozilla had no effect on XnView's behavior on my 2.8 GHz P4 (no surprise ...

I always display hidden files, and none are present in any of the image folders I've displayed w/XnView.

I tried several html files in a folder w/one image and the error doesn't occur. But then again, it has never occurred when only one image is in the folder. If I add two images ...

Yes -- even if a folder has only one file & it's a simple html file (no scripts or Java code, etc.). If I select that folder in XnView (Browse-mode), then when I browse to another folder with images, every image I double-click on (to view) triggers the JBIG2DEC command window pop ...

Hi Claude...

I've done some further debugging & have come to the conclusion that this error has nothing to do with any of my image files. Rather, it appears to be related to what folders/directories I happen to browse. For example, if I browse a folder that has an html file in it, that seems to ...

I erred in my last post. The JBIG2DEC error is still present. In addition, it also occasionally occurs in Full Screen view when cycling to "Next" image.

Before going any further, I just want to make it clear that this isn't an issue for me. I seldom (if ever) use JBIG2, so removing it from the plug ...

If I remove jbig2dec.exe, the problem goes away. In fact, when I restore the plug-in, the problem still remains gone. Weird, eh?

I originally thought that the problem might be related to the fact that I use Paint Shop Pro and that there's a Paint Shop Pro "Browser" file in virtually all of my image ...

I replaced the "jbig2dec.exe" plug-in & rebooted, and the problem is still gone.

I originally thought the error might be related to the fact that I use Paint Shop Pro and all my image directories have a Paint Shop Pro "Browser" file (type "jbf") present. I removed that file from several directories ...

If I remove the "jbig2dec.exe" plugin, the pop-up command windows go away.

When opening any images (gif, bmp, jpg, etc.) in image view (from either the browser or File=>Open), I get multiple command window pop-ups, each of which displays multiple lines of "JBIG2DEC FATAL ERROR Not a JBIG2 file header." Once an image is displayed, if you go to the next image (page down ...

I'm experiencing the same behavior as zeugma reported, i.e., multiple command windows appear cycling multiple lines of "Fatal Error not a JBIG2 file header". It occurs on all image types I've tried (jpg, bmp, gif). When in the browser, if I double-click on any image; and when cycling to "Next Image ...
