> Khmm, was this ever suggested to the libjpeg maintainers? Yes. Their opinion is reflected in the following comment in jpeglib.h: /* Unfortunately, some bozo at Adobe saw no reason to be bound by the standard; * the PostScript DCT filter can emit files with many more than 10 blocks/MCU. * If you happen to run across such a file, you can up D_MAX_BLOCKS_IN_MCU * to handle it. We even let you do this from the jconfig.h file. However, * we strongly discourage changing C_MAX_BLOCKS_IN_MCU; just because Adobe * sometimes emits noncompliant files doesn't mean you should too. */ #define C_MAX_BLOCKS_IN_MCU 10 /* compressor's limit on blocks per MCU */ #ifndef D_MAX_BLOCKS_IN_MCU #define D_MAX_BLOCKS_IN_MCU 10 /* decompressor's limit on blocks per MCU */ #endif -- L.
