I have currently a limited bandwith internet connexion. I cannot download your tiff files.

Please run digiKam with DebugView program from Microsoft and capture the console trace while you try to open the tiff file in editor. Follow instructions here :

https://www.digikam.org/contribute/#windows-host

Error message from TIFF loader:

[2284] digikam.dimg.tiff: C:/Users/User/Pictures/img324.tif :: Using code not yet in table
[2284] digikam.dimg.tiff: Failed to read strip

Maik

Reading on Windows Explorer the image render w/o no problem, I know it's another library rendering, just confirm it's a valid image.

The message come from libtiff that we use to decode and encode tiff images.

Go to Help/Components Info dialog in digiKam and look at the libtiff version.

digikam version 8.8.0

The same error message appears on Linux. The image (img324.tif) can be loaded with Gimp and Gwenview (QImage). However, it looks "broken," presumably due to an aborted scan.

Maik

ExifTool says the TIF is LZW compressed. Could that be a problem? Wasn't there something about it?

Maik

Looks like it's a buffer problem, but both images open, after the comment I open in gimp and see that only render half of image, after another look the windows viewer render all image and skip one horizontal line that is keep as black:

Strange, maybe related because all tif don't have compression at all.

The buffer I mention I think was from the scanner, sad, I need to check again the images to scan the broken again :(

Any chance to support some sort of compatible mode to render all image?

I think there are errors in TIFF, and digiKam and Gimp are interrupting the loading process. I see two fine black lines in your screenshot.

Yes, I have to scan again, I think this bug can be closed. Thank you.

Yes, I can load the image completely into digiKam if I don't immediately stop the loading process with our TIFF loader and continue.

The TIFF definitely has corrupted bytes.

I don't think we'll make this change; the risk of memory corruption is too great.

The good side of this I was able to see the scan images I need to scan again, now is travel 10000 km to do this. :')

Git commit 1ebe2db6933e2d28aaac606bc193564add7ae158 by Maik Qualmann.
Committed on 27/10/2025 at 19:35.
Pushed by mqualmann into branch 'master'.

use the image data for TIFF that was loaded up to the error
This makes the image look like it did in Gimp and
you can guess that it is probably defective.
