           Summary: Rotating jpeg images results in smaller file size (ie
                    losless transformation not working)
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.9.0-svn
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: jwest melaque com


Version:           0.9.0-svn (using KDE 3.5.3, Debian Package 4:3.5.3-1 (testing/unstable))
Compiler:          Target: i486-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.15-1-686-smp

If I rotate an image in the image/viewer/editor, the resultant file is considerably smaller, although one would expect it to be approximantly the
same size as the original.

ie.  If I rotate this 6.3m photo 180 degrees:
 http://www.netnw.com/PICT6883.JPG

I get this 4.8m photo:
 http://www.netnw.com/PICT6883-090.JPG

If I try version 0.8.2 with the same photo I get this 4.8m photo:
 http://www.netnw.com/PICT6883-0.82.JPG

BUT, if i use jpegtran to rotate the same original photo
I get this 6.3m photo:
 http://www.netnw.com/PICT6883-jpegtran.JPG

The saving image options for jpeg are set to 100.
The kipi losless plugin is enabled.


Thanks for considering this problem.

Rotation done in the Editor is not lossless as the editor works on pixels not on the jpeg files. When you open a file the Image Editor, it is uncompressed. Every modification will be done on this uncompressed data. This data will be compressed again if you save it back as a jpeg.

The lossless plugin is only available from the main window.

Perhaps a warning could be added in the image editor to tell the users that they should use the main interface to have lossless rotation when they select a 90/180/270 angle.

Just my 2 cents.

No and No !!! The rotation is lossless in digikam editor, but the JPEG re-compression is not ! Don't confuse the vision of pixel manipulation here.

If you want transform a picture never work on JPEG format. Always use a lossless format like PNG or TIFF. This is true for gimp or photoshop !

My 10 cts €

What I was seeing was perhaps related to #130798, and that problem has been identified, so this bug can be closed.
