Version: 1.9.0 (using KDE 4.6.5) OS: Linux Batch resizing fails when the image filename includes a ':' as part of a timestamp. This used to work in fedora 13, and no longer does after an update to fedora 15. I can also reproduce the problem with convert called from the command line, in the manner of https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/kipi-plugins/repository/revisions/master/entry/batchprocessimages/tools/resizecommandbuilder.cpp#L119 With straight convert, $ convert -resize 1024x600 -verbose test.jpg small/test.jpg test.jpg JPEG 1944x2592 1944x2592+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 2.651MB 0.140u 0:00.160 test.jpg=>small/test.jpg JPEG 1944x2592=>450x600 450x600+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 147KB 0.510u 0:00.210 $ convert -resize 1024x600 -verbose test-18\:37.jpg small/test-18\:37.jpg test-18:37.jpg JPEG 1944x2592 1944x2592+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 2.651MB 0.130u 0:00.139 test-18:37.jpg=>small/test-18:37.jpg JPEG 1944x2592=>450x600 450x600+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 147KB 0.500u 0:00.240 when specifying the first frame things go wrong, convert -resize 1024x600 -verbose test.jpg[0] small/test.jpg test.jpg[0]=>test.jpg JPEG 1944x2592 1944x2592+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 2.651MB 0.170u 0:00.189 test.jpg[0]=>small/test.jpg JPEG 1944x2592=>450x600 450x600+0+0 8-bit DirectClass 147KB 0.480u 0:00.179 convert -resize 1024x600 -verbose test-18\:37.jpg[0] small/test-18\:37.jpg convert: no decode delegate for this image format `37.jpg' @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/532. convert: missing an image filename `small/test-18:37.jpg' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2949. http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/files/#read_frames suggests putting single quotes around the frame specifier will help, but it seems to make no difference. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See above. Expected Results: . As I can reproduce the problem on the command line, I think this change came from either of: bash-4.1.7-1.fc13.x86_64 -> bash-4.2.10-4.fc15.x86_64 ImageMagick-6.5.8.10-7.fc13.x86_64 -> ImageMagick-6.6.5.10-19.fc15.x86_64
Appears to be a problem in ImageMagick, introduced between version 6.5.8.10-7.fc13 and 6.6.4.1-14.fc14 - see http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19215&sid=92d2d107379cfc06193f308603a89948&p=75054#p75053 I'll not close this bug yet, not till it's clear what the problem is.
Oliver, This file still valid using kipi-plugins 2.4 ? Gilles Caulier
The bug was in ImageMagick - see further discussion linked from comment #1 - and is fixed in 6.7.1-2. However, fedora 16 doesn't have the fix - see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=732187 - i don't know about other distributions.
