XnView Software

It seems that XnViewMP is not able to decoded JPEG files that use arithmetic encoding as opposite of Huffman. Since it is using libjpeg-turbo, it should be as easy as compiling with the define D_ARITH_CODING_SUPPORTED.

Is there any chance it would be added in future builds?

Thanks.

ok, do you have such jpeg?

Sure!

Find attached some requested samples, nevertheless, you can always use jpegtran -aritmetic in order to convert a regular Huffman JPEG to Aritmetic, or jpegtran -optimize to do the oposite.

For your information, GIMP is able to view and edit arithmetic JPEG images with no problems too.

Hello Pierre,

Were the samples I provided enought for you?
Do you want some more?

Thanks.

thanks, i'll check

• JPEG Arithmetic
• New, enhanced JPEG format

I've just read two other related topics (Cant view lossless jpg and JPEG v9.1 now supports 12-bit color and lossless compression) and I wonder if JPEG arithmetic decoding is implemented in XnView Classic? As for XnView 2.35, it seems not to support arithmetic-encoded images.

I just did a quick test with an arithmetic coded JPEG saved by Jpegcrop (2015.12 / IJG JPEG 9b). XnView MP v0.83 is able to open the file, but Classic v2.39 can't.
