Re: [Easytag-mailing] Corrupted images on embedded art cover fles

[Jérôme COUDERC <easytag gmail com>]

In fact there is two problem with pictures:

1) Black picture zone :
GTK 2.12.3 contains a bug that displays a black zone in the end of the 
picture in EasyTAG. But the file is correctly saved in the tag as it is 
only a displaying problem...

The bug was fixed into 2.12.4 
<http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtk+/2.12/gtk+-2.12.4.tar.bz2> 
released on 08-Jan-2008

* Bugs fixed:
494667 gdkpixloader jpeg loader problems with some files


2) Altered picture in other application
The problem seems to occurs only when saving the tag to the version 2.4. 
If you save it to ID3v2.3, all seems correct (there is a setting in the 
preferences window to choose the tag version to write, ID3v2.3 uses 
id3lib-3.8.3 and ID3v2.4 uses libid3tag-0.15).

By making some searches it appears that the size set in the APIC frame 
isn't correct (size is too big than necessary).
Now I'm searching why this occurs...

Regards,
Jerome
