[Bug 291797] Re: VLC crashes when trying to open JPEGs

[Magnus S]

Have you tried with other files than those you linked to? I have tried many jpg:s from different sources, and vlc refused to crash. It didn't show the pics for more than a half a second of course, but it didn't crash. 
Also tried this inside my virtual XP installation, latest vlc, it did not crash with your files, so this is probably isolated to the linux version. 

We are dealing with two issues here, right?
1. Vlc could show the pictures without closing them at EOI. (future request)
2. Vlc does not handle some (perhaps a little corrupted) jpg:s correctly. It should show the images anyway, or if it is impossible, tell us why. That part of it can be confirmed.

** Changed in: vlc (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
