0.87: XnView MP crashes when saving as Guetzli JPEG

Post by Optic »

Hi, as per topic title.

On Windows 10 64 bit, zip version of XnView MP 0.87

File > Save As > Guetzli JPEG

Saving box appears:
saving.jpg
saving.jpg (10.46 KiB) Viewed 896 times
Progress bar quickly reaches end and doesn't progress even after 2-3 minutes.

If you press Esc key then XnView MP crashes:

Windows Event Viewer log:

I tried using a JPEG and also a TIFF with same result. Activity Monitor shows no CPU usage being used by XnView MP when I do the Save As to Guetzli JPEG..

It may simply not done with processing. guetzli needs lots of processing time. 2-3 minutes is normal even for small 2 megapixel pics here with a 4.4GHz machine.

Hi pokuly

Thanks for your reply.

Yes you're right, I left it longer (10+ minutes) and it did complete successfully.

Maybe in future possible to implement a more accurate Saving picture progress bar?

Or perhaps also allow it to be used for Bulk Export / File > Export.

Interesting that this was it. It shouldn't crash ending the process with simply hitting ESC imho.
I'd suggest to not use guetzli at this point. It seems to reduce quality to much when used in MP.
Have a look here: viewtopic.php?f=62&t=36099#p144737
I suggest some extra settings would be nice like memlimit M, nomemlimit and soon preserve-exif, cuda or OpenCL support.
