XnView Software

I would like to report a problem I have discovered with XnView and certain JPEG 2000 (.JP2) files.

XnView with the JasPer JP2 plug-in always crashes on reading JP2 files with custom profiles embedded. These files have embedded display profiles created with a Spyder2 colorimeter. This is a somewhat unusual practice, but it is handled correctly by other applications. I do not know what if any other embedded profiles also cause a crash.

The LuraTech JP2 plug-in reads all 8-bit RGB JP2 files that I have tried, but it ignores ALL color profiles.

My prime interest in XnView is as a color-managed viewer, and one of my most used formats is .JP2. I sincerely hope that a working combination is soon possible. At least, I hope that the offending ICC profiles can be selectively ignored without crashing.

I uploaded a sample file that causes a crash:

Operating system is Windows XP SP3. XnView version is 1.97.6

Does the test file cause a crash for others?

I don't have a crash. But then again, I can't tell which plug-in is used for JPEG2000 on my installation.

It appears to be the LuraTech library. If you temporarily move those files out of the plugin directory, what happens?

When I remove the LuraTech DLLs...

• ldf.dll
• ldf_jpm.dll
• lwf.dll
• lwf_jp2.dll

... and try to browse a directory with Lena-ICC.jp2 in it, XnView v1.97.6 crashes

Right, will be fixed

Thank you.

Please try XnView 1.97.7

I upgraded to the latest version of XnView (1.97. today, and I still get a crash on my test file, while using Xjp2.dll.

could you try the 1.98 beta?
And which JPEG2000 plugin do you use?

I am using Xjp2.dll plugin.

Using v1.98 beta 2 (unstable) it does not crash!

Is this beta safe to use? Could it corrupt files?
