Corrupt Images

Post by MourningStar »

Occasionally a notification appears identifying a corrupt file encountered. Is there a way this tool can identify all problem images before assigning/starting the saver?

Unfortunately, this isn't possible. The only way would be to open each file at startup, but that would take a long time.
Sometimes, the file itself isn't even corrupt; it could be an unsupported format or the wrong extension.

Is there a log file that reports these corrupt images that I can open and scan? - If not, consider adding this function. -thank you

open the error log and you will see what it contains. If not enough enable extended logging. It contains much more info.
