Summary: JPEG lack of support should not be critical, similar to HTML rendering Product: Wine Version: 1.1.32 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: adys.wh@gmail.com
Quick example with the World of Warcraft Launcher.exe:
adys@azura:$ wine Launcher.exe err:wincodecs:JpegDecoder_CreateInstance Trying to load JPEG picture, but JPEG supported not compiled in. fixme:ole:CoCreateInstance no instance created for interface {9edde9e7-8dee-47ea-99df-e6faf2ed44bf} of class {9456a480-e88b-43ea-9e73-0b2d9b71b1ca}, hres is 0x80004005 err:ole:OleLoadPicture IPersistStream_Load failed
The application will show a dialogue "Launcher could not be executed for some reason."
A neat enhancement would be to have a "disabled" state, very similar to a disabled HTML rendering.
Of course, an application which relies on JPEG rendering could not be expected to work properly. This would however fix the issue for many applications which just load a jpeg on the side.
Untested with png.
