[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1436595] Re: Images too bright

2018-05-24 Thread Misaki
This is due to color management. I think I filed a bug report on the
Gnome bugtracker with slightly different information, but regarding
brightness jumping from 0 to ~5 out of 255:

According to http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php, with 6-bit
dithering, usually "the darkest four shades (0, 1, 2, 3) all are
displayed as black regardless of the monitor settings." Most models of
my laptop didn't have LED backlights, and maybe the default color
profile for my laptop model was intended for those non-LED backlights.
Although my screen is 6-bit, shades 1~3 are still discernible. In any
case, turning off color management fixed the problem for eog, and
presumably for Firefox as well after a restart.

Title:
  Images too bright

Status in eog package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Most images have their values shifted upwards when displayed in eog,
  and I don't think it is intentional. Reporting this as a bug is
  complicated because I am not sure if some programs, such as eog,
  change their display of an image based on screen settings for
  colorspace or gamma. I am not an expert on graphics, but something
  does seem to be wrong.

  So at least for my computer, eog seems to stretch out the range just
  above a 0 value. A very dark area will have a clear contrast between
  the totally black pixels, with a value of zero, and the ones just
  above it. In one image I tested, eog did not display any pixels with a
  value in the range of 1 to 5, as in the histogram of a screenshot of
  eog's display of the image.

  In comparison, a screenshot of Firefox's display of the same image had
  numerous pixels in the 1~5 range. The GIMP image editor displayed this
  image the same as Firefox, with the histogram showing that the pixels
  were being displayed without any adjustment.

  Basically, if a lot of different programs display things differently
  and inconsistently, some of them have to be wrong, and it seems likely
  that eog is. Due to inconsistencies, I'm not actually sure what is the
  correct, or the best way to display images, which might be different
  from the correct way.

  Programs used to test, convert, and display images:
  imagemagick
  ffmpeg (for conversion) and avplay (for display, since ffplay isn't provided 
on my distribution)
  eog
  Firefox
  vlc
  GIMP

  I thought Firefox was displaying non-stripped pngs the same as eog
  does, but it's actually slightly different. While gray areas are about
  the same as eog, red areas are slightly darker in Firefox.

  A description of how various programs display images:
  vlc seems to be the same as avplay, and both are different from either 
Firefox or eog. Dark red is a bit more like brown or orange, while contrast for 
luminosity or luminance (?) seems to be higher; I am just noting that it is 
different. This is for a png image.

  I thought eog was displaying all images the same way, until I
  encountered a png that worked differently. I thought eog was
  displaying this png without any adjustments, as it's slightly darker
  than how eog displays other pngs, but it's actually slightly darker
  with more intense colours than how other programs display the same
  image. But for all other images, eog seems to make them slightly
  brighter.

  Firefox displays jpgs without any adjustment, but most pngs are
  slightly brighter. As described, this is slightly different than how
  eog makes images brighter. If an image is converted with -strip action
  in imagemagick, Firefox shows the png without adjustments. A png
  output from ffmpeg is also displayed without adjustments. It seems to
  be related to the 'png:sRGB : intent=' property but that would
  be a Firefox bug. It's relevant because it seems to adjust the display
  of images in a way that's similar to eog, though still different. If a
  stripped png is converted again without applying the -strip action
  again, Firefox will display it as adjusted; that is, brighter. This is
  also part of the evidence that the adjustment in Firefox, and
  therefore in eog, is a bug.

  GIMP displays images without an adjustment, so darker than eog for
  most images.

  The 'display' utility from imagemagick displays images the same as
  GIMP, without any apparent adjustments.

  
  So GIMP, display from imagemagick, and Firefox all display jpgs as slightly 
darker than eog, without mostly skipping over the range of values just above 0. 
GIMP and 'display' show most pngs as darker than eog, while Firefox displays 
some pngs as darker than eog while others are displayed similar but with 
slightly darker reds it seems.

  I think all the images I've looked at had 'colorspace: sRGB' in their
  properties when I looked at them with 'identify' from imagemagick or
  exiftool., so if that's

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1766480] [NEW] Touchpad scroll and middle/right click not working as expected

2018-04-23 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

This could probably fixed through configuration, but it should work
automatically. Testing Ubuntu 18.04 beta, the touchpad has no special
regions for scrolling or anything.

By default in Xorg-based Ubuntu, top right corner of touchpad is middle-
click (mouse button 2), bottom right is right-click (mouse button 3),
and right side is vertical scrolling. For a while the bottom edge
defaulted to horizontal scrolling, but that changed in 17.10 or
something.

I'm aware that new touchpad interaction methods have developed, like
dragging with two fingers anywhere on the touchpad to scroll or
something. But people may not know this, or their touchpad might not
support multitouch.

(The Xorg-based settings for touchpad remain when switching back to Xorg
like with the Metacity Flashback login option.)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1444839] [NEW] jpeg-2000 files cause Nautilus to crash

2015-04-16 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

Diagnosing this bug may be complicated by Bug #1443809. I am currently
using a custom thumbnailer for jpeg-2000 files, but before I did so, I
had created a number of jpeg-2000 files. While there were some cases
where they caused a crash, I think the eventual result was that they all
had 'failed thumbnails' created for them. Possibly eog created valid
thumbnails for them. (I can't check to see what happened because I
deleted my old thumbnails folder after upgrading.)

With no custom thumbnailers, nautilus will crash upon encountering a
jpeg-2000 file, with file suffix .jp2. As noted in Bug #1444790, it
doesn't crash if the jpeg-2000 file has a different suffix; it just
produces a 'failed thumbnail' in the thumbnails folder, which for
current Ubuntu versions is ~/.cache/thumbnails/fail. If the file was
created by copying an existing jpeg-2000 file in nautilus, nautilus
still crashes but only after invoking eog to create a thumbnail, so
after this is complete, navigating to that folder won't cause a crash.

If the thumbnail check was performed because the jpeg-2000 file was
renamed from an inappropriate suffix to .jp2, or because it was renamed
by some other method while not looking at the directory containing that
file (such as the command line, or maybe using the 'undo' function in
nautilus though this would require 1) having a normal or failed
thumbnail 2) renaming the file 3) deleting the thumbnail 4) nautilus
would have to stop using the cached thumbnail, and I don't think it
does), nautilus will crash without invoking eog for thumbnail creation,
and so will continue to crash whenever that folder is viewed.

A jpeg-2000 file can be generated using mogrify from imagemagick with
the command 'mogrify -format jp2 image.jpg'.

The advantages and disadvantages of jpeg-2000, compared to jpeg, are
described here: http://x264dev.multimedia.cx/archives/317 The type of
encoding used by jpeg-2000 is better for edges, while that used for jpeg
is better for broad areas of smaller, but nonzero amounts of variation.
There are definitely cases where jpeg-2000 is a better choice than jpeg
for retaining what is viewed as a sufficient level of quality in an
image, but users are unlikely to use it more if their applications don't
support it very well.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1444881] [NEW] Autocomplete in 'open file' works wrong with folders

2015-04-16 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

This is related to what might also be a bug, where directories aren't
displayed at the top when sorting files by name in the 'open file'
dialogue. I think it used to work this way, but changed between Ubuntu
12.04 and 14.10.

So the fastest way to open files is often by typing. When an
autocompleted folder name is displayed and is the only possible result
for a path starting with those characters, pressing tab will cause the
autocompleted text to be entered, while pressing enter normally causes
the autocompleted folder to be navigated to.

If there is a file that starts starts with that folder's name in the
same directory, the bug described in this report doesn't occur.

But if no such file exists, then if all files in the autocompleted
folder start with the same letters, then pressing tab while the
autocompleted folder's name is highlighted will cause those common
letters to appear. Pressing enter instead of tab at the first step will
instead cause a file to be opened with the name of those common letters.

The case where I encounter this bug is manual files for ffmpeg, which
all start with 'ff' (and Ubuntu doesn't package ffmpeg which is why I'm
opening them with gedit).

Autocompletion includes the '/' used to denote folders.

So, for example, in the folder /tmp/h, you have these files:
i
il
iif/
iiif/

In the 'open files' dialogue, if you type '/tmp/h', an autocompleted '/'
appears. The expected behaviour is that if you press enter, you'll
navigate to /tmp/h and view the files it contains. What actually happens
is it opens '/tmp/h/i' for editing. Immediately after presseing enter
while the autocompleted '/' is displayed, it turns a normal colour
(instead of having autocompletion highlighting), an autocompleted 'i'
appears, and the open file dialogue closes, having selected 'i' to open.

If there is also a file '/tmp/hi', then the '/' is not autocompleted,
and pressing enter will just open the folder and display the letter 'i'.
If, instead, there is a folder /tmp/h/uuu/ and a file /tmp/h/,
and the folder uuu contains another folder u/ and a file ,
typing '/tmp/h/u' will cause an autocompleting 'uu' to be displayed (no
'/' at the end), and pressing enter will just display the folder.

If the file /tmp/h/ is removed or renamed to be shorter than
uuu/, then instead of 'uu', 'uu/' will be autocompleted, and pressing
enter will cause the folder /tmp/h/uuu/u/ to be opened, which is empty.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1444790] Re: crash if thumbnailer fails to produce output

2015-04-15 Thread Misaki
After removing custom thumbnailers, copying a jp2 file using ctrl-C
ctrl-V causes nautilus to crash about one time. gnome-thumbnailer tries
to create a thumbnail, but it can take several seconds, and if nautilus
is reopened and navigated to that folder again, it will crash again.
However, after this has been completed, nautilus won't crash. (In fact,
top reveals that it's eog that creates the new thumbnail if you use
ctrl-C ctrl-V in nautilus.)

If the new file name is obtained a different way, like using 'mv' on the
command line, navigating to that folder in nautilus will cause a crash
without attempting to generate a new thumbnail.

So even if you wait several seconds, no thumbnail will exist for the
file and nautilus will crash every time you navigate to that folder
until you delete the file or rename it to a path for which it will have
a valid thumbnail (meaning the file's mtime is correct).

So this might only affect jpeg-2000 files, and not all files for which
there is no valid output. Maybe with other files, the default thumbnail
options (the ones not recorded in /usr/share/thumbnailers) consistently
create at least a failed thumbnail, while this doesn't happen with
jpeg-2000 files. But since nautilus is crashing before eog finishes
creating a thumbnail (if using ctrl-C ctrl-V to copy), nautilus might be
relying on a separate process from what it depends on for, say,
obtaining a 'failed thumbnail' result for incomplete mp4 files, which
don't cause a crash.

One difference is that while gnome-thumbnailer has code for handling
image formats as a fallback method, it isn't for video formats. I'm not
sure if it's nautilus or gnome that's calling eog to create a thumbnail
when ctrl-C ctrl-V is used.

Title:
  crash if thumbnailer fails to produce output

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Step 1: Use a custom thumbnailer which doesn't always produce output.
  I'm personally using this one, since the default size (256x256) often
  produces a png thumbnail which takes more space than the original jpg
  image, and imagemagick's convert seems to have a bug for palette-png
  to grayscale conversion:

  [Thumbnailer Entry]
  TryExec=ffmpeg
  Exec=ffmpeg -i %i -vf 
scale='min(iw,128):min(ih,128):force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease',format=rgba|rgb24
 -frames 1 -y -f image2 -c:v png %o
  MimeType=image/gif;image/jpeg;image/png;image/jp2;image/x-webp

  Step 2: navigate to a folder that the thumbnailer can't handle. For
  me, that was balloon.jp2 from http://opf-labs.org/format-corpus
  /jp2k-formats/

  My version of ffmpeg says on the command line that Progression order
  RPCL is not implemented. [...] Output file is empty, nothing was
  encoded. Not having any file from the thumbnailer, or maybe having an
  empty, 0-byte file (ffmpeg does not produce a 0-byte output file from
  the command line), causes nautilus to freeze and crash.

  This happened multiple times. However, just now I checked and it
  didn't crash, and a thumbnail exists for the jp2 image, /sigh. But
  creating a copy of the jp2 image does lead to crashes. Ok, the reason
  is that eog creates a thumbnail when one doesn't exist and the
  system's default thumbnailers fail. Opening the image gallery in eog
  causes thumbnails to be created for all visible images.

  That is, when running eog from a terminal, opening the image gallery
  caused ffmpeg's output (with the error message) to be displayed in
  that terminal. But the thumbnail is still created, and eog must have
  done it.

  It's also possible nautilus crashes when the fallback gnome-
  thumbnailer fails to create a file, which I think is what happens when
  it tries to open a jpeg-2000 file. A few months ago I noted this bug:

  Another bug, crashes when trying to generate thumbnail for jpeg-2000
  (jp2). Avoided if thumbnail is already created, maybe in some other
  cases too. Possibly just when thumbnail isn't created quickly enough
  (thumbnailer fails or something).

  ...but apparently I fixed it somehow, not sure.

  So it's totally fine that no thumbnail is created when the existing
  thumbnailer entries aren't sufficient. But nautilus shouldn't crash.
  When running nautilus from the command line, it says there was a
  segmentation fault, core dumped, with a crash file being generated in
  /var/crash (which I'm deleting).

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1318327] Re: Can't open .webp files

2015-04-15 Thread Misaki
The bug for libwebp seems to be Bug #1407644. Should one of these bugs
be marked as a duplicate and the other project added to the list of
affected projects?

I notice that ffmpeg (possibly with the right compile options) can open
.webp files, and ffmpeg uses the GNU General Public License version 2+
though that particular decoder might not.

eog also seems to use the GNU General Public License version 2+.

The other bug report says that using a gdk-pixbuf loader is the right
way to extend support, but in the meantime, could eog just use code from
ffmpeg, or even ffmpeg directly? (Imagemagick, for example, uses ffmpeg
to open video files.) It seems that having a poor solution may be better
than having no solution, if there is currently no motivation to
implement the 'correct' solution.

produces a png thumbnail which takes more space than the original jpg
image, and imagemagick's convert seems to have a bug for palette-png to
grayscale conversion:

[Thumbnailer Entry]
TryExec=ffmpeg
Exec=ffmpeg -i %i -vf 
scale='min(iw,128):min(ih,128):force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease',format=rgba|rgb24
 -frames 1 -y -f image2 -c:v png %o
MimeType=image/gif;image/jpeg;image/png;image/jp2;image/x-webp

Step 2: navigate to a folder that the thumbnailer can't handle. For me,
that was balloon.jp2 from http://opf-labs.org/format-corpus/jp2k-
formats/

My version of ffmpeg says on the command line that Progression order
RPCL is not implemented. [...] Output file is empty, nothing was
encoded. Not having any file from the thumbnailer, or maybe having an
empty, 0-byte file (ffmpeg does not produce a 0-byte output file from
the command line), causes nautilus to freeze and crash.

This happened multiple times. However, just now I checked and it didn't
crash, and a thumbnail exists for the jp2 image, /sigh. But creating a
copy of the jp2 image does lead to crashes. Ok, the reason is that eog
creates a thumbnail when one doesn't exist and the system's default
thumbnailers fail. Opening the image gallery in eog causes thumbnails to
be created for all visible images.

That is, when running eog from a terminal, opening the image gallery
caused ffmpeg's output (with the error message) to be displayed in that
terminal. But the thumbnail is still created, and eog must have done it.

It's also possible nautilus crashes when the fallback gnome-thumbnailer
fails to create a file, which I think is what happens when it tries to
open a jpeg-2000 file. A few months ago I noted this bug:

Another bug, crashes when trying to generate thumbnail for jpeg-2000
(jp2). Avoided if thumbnail is already created, maybe in some other
cases too. Possibly just when thumbnail isn't created quickly enough
(thumbnailer fails or something).

...but apparently I fixed it somehow, not sure.

So it's totally fine that no thumbnail is created when the existing
thumbnailer entries aren't sufficient. But nautilus shouldn't crash.
When running nautilus from the command line, it says there was a
segmentation fault, core dumped, with a crash file being generated in
/var/crash (which I'm deleting).

2015-04-15 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

jpeg-2000 images appear in a small window, the smallest allowed by eog,
instead of at the size of the image (or some other large size if the
image is larger than the screen).

This happens for both jp2 images output from imagemagick's convert and
mogrify, and from a reference image at http://opf-labs.org/format-corpus
/jp2k-formats/ . Note that due to Bug #1444790, the reference .jp2 image
on that site may cause nautilus to crash when viewing a directory it's
saved in, but eog can display the image fine (and creates a thumbnail so
viewing the directory won't cause another crash).

eog can correctly display these images, and their image size shows up in
exiftool or imagemagic's 'identify', so this information should also be
available to eog when opening them.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1444790] Re: crash if thumbnailer fails to produce output

2015-04-15 Thread Misaki
If you rename a jp2 file to jpg, it doesn't cause nautilus to crash. It
just shows the 'generic image' icon that's also used if an image is
larger than the limit set for previewing, and eog is unable to open it.

If a jp2 file is renamed to have a non-image suffix, nautilus will be
busy (100% cpu) for a second or two and then the image will use the
'generic icon', without nautilus crashing. With image suffixes, this
doesn't occur.

I also managed to replicate a bug that I avoided reporting earlier
because I couldn't replicate it again. A png image has a 'corrupted'
thumbnail, what is obviously the result of the file being read in an
unfinished state. That is, gnome-thumbnailer or nautilus, or whatever is
creating thumbnails, should be waiting until a file's modification time
is 3 seconds in the past before trying to create a thumbnail for it,
based on the code I looked at. This seems to work for video files, but
not for images. When this happened before I verified that the difference
between the modification time for the thumbnail (now in
~/.cache/thumbnails in Ubuntu, previously in ~/.thumbnails), and the
time for the file as recorded in the thumbnail's PNG data and the same
as for the actual file, was less than three seconds, being around 1
second. Maybe nautilus is not using this code though.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 797485] Re: Status Bar Covers File Name at Bottom

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
I don't feel like commenting on the Bugzilla bug report, which states that . . .
blockquoteWe will remove the floating bar after releasing 3.16, so probably 
this won't be need at all./blockquote

. . . but this could be fixed by increasing the vertical scrollable size
of the window when the last row is selected.

The vertical size already increases based on the length of file names in
the last row, this would just be an extension of that. The comment on
Bugzilla also does not say what they are replacing the floating bar
with. Being able to see the size of a file, without having file size
always enabled at default zoom level, using just a single click is
useful and it shouldn't go away.

Alt-enter is not a replacement because it takes longer, and not everyone
has a fast computer. The lag it takes to open the properties window also
seems to scale with the number of items in the folder.

  In Nautilus when you have an even number of files on the bottom row it
  becomes difficult to rename the last file as the status bar covers the

  I realize this is likely a rare occurrence, and can be gotten around
  by adjusting the width of the window, but it is a minor bug.

  Possible solutions:

  Move status bar to the left side when working with files in that

  Do not show status bar while renaming.

  Best IMHO: Give the file area a bottom margin of the height of the
  status bar.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443809] Re: Failed thumbnail check not working properly

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
I may have misfiled this, but not quite sure which project is
responsible.  I also note that when adding gnome-desktop to the list of
affected projects, it said gnome-desktop does not use Launchpad to
track bugs. Nobody will be notified about this issue.

Added a screenshot of an image not being thumbnailed.

The relevant function seems to be 
gnome_desktop_thumbnail_factory_has_valid_failed_thumbnail ()
https://developer.gnome.org/gnome-desktop/stable/GnomeDesktopThumbnailFactory.html#gnome-desktop-thumbnail-factory-has-valid-failed-thumbnail

This is old code because I don't know how to reference the latest code:
http://sourcecodebrowser.com/gnome-desktop/2.32.0/gnome-desktop-thumbnail_8h.html#ab9946e6856418572e55147637a1493ab

It includes this:

  pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file (path, NULL);
  g_free (path);

  if (pixbuf)
{
  res = gnome_desktop_thumbnail_is_valid (pixbuf, uri, mtime);
  g_object_unref (pixbuf);
}

  g_checksum_free (checksum);

It mentions mtime, yet evidently that is not being checked if the
process described in this report can cause a new thumbnail to fail to be
generated.

As implied in the original report, if there is a valid thumbnail and
also a failed thumbnail for the same path to a file, if the valid
thumbnail doesn't match the mtime of the actual file, a new thumbnail
will be generated. So it seems to work unless no 'normal' thumbnail
(whether normal or large-sized) already exists.

  Failed thumbnail check not working properly

Status in GNOME Desktop Common Files:
  New
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is related to the gnome-thumbnailer code which is part of
  Nautilus. However, I don't know enough about programming to fix it
  myself.

  If a failed thumbnail exists for a file, or specifically a universal
  resource identifier, Nautilus will not try to create a valid thumbnail
  for it, unless a non-failed thumbnail also exists for that URI/path.

  Steps to replicate:

  1) Create a new, blank document named image.jpg
  2) make sure the failed thumbnail has been created, such as by restarting 
nautilus with 'nautilus --quit'
  3) navigate back to that folder, rename or delete the blank file, and rename 
another image to image.jpg.

  Result: no thumbnail will be created for the image.

  When I was checking the thumbnail code for an unrelated issue (256x256
  thumbnails take up too much space as PNG, sometimes larger than
  original file), I also saw enough to be able to investigate this issue
  a little. In the code for Nautilus, or gnome-thumbnailer, that I
  looked at, it appeared that the code was doing a check to see if the
  failed thumbnail was valid.

  That is, if the modification time of the file as recorded in the PNG
  Chunk data does not match, it probably shouldn't count as a match for
  the file. But either it is incorrectly matching, or something else is
  wrong.

  While testing for an unrelated issue that seemed like it might no
  longer exist, I found that as Firefox saves an item by creating a
  placeholder and then saving the actual file using a .part suffix
  (unless changed in options probably), it leads to this bug.

So while the Bugzilla report as marked as RESOLVED DUPLICATE, I am reporting a 
new issue.

Steps to replicate:

1) Open a folder with many image files.
2) Change to list view.
3) zoom to maximum size, it's faster this way but still happens at normal size.
4) Scroll up and down.

Result, nautilus will use more memory.

The fact that it leaks memory faster at a higher zoom level indicates
that it isn't related to the length of strings, but rather has to do
with images somehow.

This doesn't happen in icon view. What does happen in icon view, if you
zoom to maximum size, is that nautilus temporary uses more memory while
it caches higher-resolution thumbnails it generates, possibly only if
the existing thumbnails aren't large enough. But most or all of this
memory is freed when you reload the folder or navigate away. This
doesn't happen with the memory from this leak. Memory usage does go down
slightly, like for me it just went from ~830 MiB or something to 780
when I went from list view to icon view, but when I did this after
zooming in icon view, it went from ~230 to ~60 MiB.

When I was testing this before, it seemed like the memory didn't leak
until you had scrolled far enough; just scrolling a bit, like half a
page on normal zoom, didn't seem to cause a leak even when repeated. But
using a high zoom makes it easy enough to replicate that details like
that shouldn't matter.

In fact, simply increasing the zoom level could cause a memory leak. I
just did that, without scrolling, and watched memory usage go from ~780,
where I was before, up to 975 MiB. After returning to normal zoom and
refreshing, memory went down to ~914. After repeating the process, over
1 GiB.

At normal size, in list view, scrolling down to the bottom of 342 images
and then back up to the top causes Nautilus to use about 20 MiB more
memory, each time you do it. In icon view, doing this has no noticeable
effect. However, changing to list view, and then changing back to icon
view, with no other actions taken, does cause memory to increase by
about 6 MiB each time I do it.

New thumbnail creation is probably happening because there is high CPU
use; it's possible it's not caching thumbnails in list view., or caching
a limited amount or number and not freeing memory after it decides a
thumbnail is no longer cached. At largest zoom, each image was adding
1.3 MiB of memory to Nautilus when I pressed down once; same thing if I
pressed 'home' and 'end' repeatedly.

I'm using Nautilus 3.10.1, with Ubuntu 14.10.

Bug description:
  Hello,

  It's just to note that Nautilus has memory leaks with the latest
  version: with an uptime of 10 hours, Nautilus uses 420Mo.

  It's maybe interesting to know that:
   * I'm using a slideshow and not one single image as background.
   * I opened Nautilus in directories where big files were being downloaded 
(and Nautilus regularly refreshed their preview)
   * I made a few actions (like opening directories with a lot of files, moving 
files, creating directories, extracting tarball, etc.)
   * I'm using a few plugins like nautilus-dropbox, nautilus-image-converter, 
etc.
   * I've bookmarks with special characters like 'Vidéos' and 'Téléchargements'.

  I hope it will help you to fix this bug ;)

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443849] [NEW] Copying a line with full-width character at end adds a space

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

If a full-width character, such as a Chinese character, starts at the
last column of a line, it is moved to the start of the next line. The
last column is then displayed as being empty. However, if that line is
selected using the mouse and copied using shift-ctrl-C, or simply using
middle-click paste, a space is added to the line at that location.

A common place where this can occur is in filenames.

I assume this is a bug in gnome-terminal, and not bash, but I'm not

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443809] [NEW] Failed thumbnail check not working properly

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

This is related to the gnome-thumbnailer code which is part of Nautilus.
However, I don't know enough about programming to fix it myself.

If a failed thumbnail exists for a file, or specifically a universal
resource identifier, Nautilus will not try to create a valid thumbnail
for it, unless a non-failed thumbnail also exists for that URI/path.

Steps to replicate:

1) Create a new, blank document named image.jpg
2) make sure the failed thumbnail has been created, such as by restarting 
nautilus with 'nautilus --quit'
3) navigate back to that folder, rename or delete the blank file, and rename 
another image to image.jpg.

Result: no thumbnail will be created for the image.

When I was checking the thumbnail code for an unrelated issue (256x256
thumbnails take up too much space as PNG, sometimes larger than original
file), I also saw enough to be able to investigate this issue a little.
In the code for Nautilus, or gnome-thumbnailer, that I looked at, it
appeared that the code was doing a check to see if the failed thumbnail
was valid.

That is, if the modification time of the file as recorded in the PNG
Chunk data does not match, it probably shouldn't count as a match for
the file. But either it is incorrectly matching, or something else is
wrong.

While testing for an unrelated issue that seemed like it might no longer
exist, I found that as Firefox saves an item by creating a placeholder
and then saving the actual file using a .part suffix (unless changed in
options probably), it leads to this bug.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443846] [NEW] 'Advance by one frame' no longer works at beginning of video

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

This might be a totem issue, not a gstreamer one; the ubuntu-bug program
asked what was happening and I selected video not playing correctly.

After I upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to Ubuntu 14.10, with whatever
gstreamer or totem changes were involved with that, 'advance by one
frame' (the '.' key) didn't work as well. It will almost always not work
at the very start of a video. Sometimes instead of one frame, it will
advance around half a second. Other times, maybe related to seeking in
the video after using it without first starting normal playback again,
it will not work properly or will send you back to where you were in the
video before you seeked to a different time.

Occasionally, it will work at the start of a video, but very rarely if
ever can you do this by pausing, seeking to the start of a video, and
then pressing '.' . You used to be able to do this though.

Right now, trying to seek near the start of a video, if it doesn't just
send you back to wherever you were, usually skips several frames, like 6
frames or so, then starts normal behaviour of advancing 1 frame at a
time.

On a related note, the 'one frame back' key (the ',' key) is either
broken by design or partly by accident. Pressing it usually either
freezes the video, so you have to seek to a different location in order
for the video to start playing normally, or it causes the video to seek
to a totally separate time, and subsequently pressing '.' causes a frame
to be shown which is at a completely separate time than what ',' was
returning. When ',' works instead of freezing the video (possibly only
before I upgraded to 14.10 several months ago), it seemed to usually
seek to near the start of the video before returning frames, though the
'.' key would sort of let you reset playback to where it was before.

As a quick test, I just tried it on a webm/VP9 video, though I think the
same thing happens with other videos:

1) Played for a few seconds, then pressed and held '.' . Result, video advances 
at the rate of keyboard sending '.' events.
2) Pressed and held ','. Result, video went back maybe a second, but then 
actually played backwards.
3) Pressed and held '.' again. Result, video played backwards instead of 
advancing forwards like the key should do.
4) With video paused, seeked forward by 15 sec, and pressed '.' again. Result, 
progress bar moved back to video start where it was before seeking, and video 
didn't advance as probably still trying to go backwards.
5) With video paused, seek forward by clicking. Unpause video. Result, it goes 
back to start and doesn't play.
6) With video on play but not playing, seeked forward again. Result, starts 
playing from beginning.
7) With video on play and playing, seeked to a different location. Result, 
video still on play but not playing.
8) Paused and then unpaused, video starts playing again.
9) Pressed and held '.' again, video slowly moves forward.
10) Pressed ',' , totem crashes. (don't remember this happening before)

  Display bug for editing lines with full-width characters

Status in gnome-terminal package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm not entirely sure this isn't a bug with bash, instead of gnome-
  terminal.

  Full-width character, followed by at least one full word with a space
  after it.

  Example: あa a

  With trailing space.

  Typing before the full-width character causes the 'あ' to be pushed to
  next line, with a blank space on previous line though if selected and
  copied it will actually produce a space.

  The 'あ' occupies two columns on the new line, but characters after the
  first a are only moved one column to the right. The first a, or the
  first character after the 'あ' including a space, is pushed two columns
  to the right, covering the second character after the 'あ'.

  A similar bug occurs when deleting characters before the 'あ', except
  no trailing space is required. A character is duplicated but might be
  first letter of first word on second line, or last letter of next
  word. Duplicating one letter as soon as 'あ' goes to previous line is
  easy to replicate; duplicating other letters as further characters
  before 'あ' are deleted might only happen after resetting the line
  using up arrow then down arrow, but actually just because of forward
  bug because displayed characters change after pressing up then down.
  Second word on line only seems to be affected if no other words after
  it.

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
gnome-terminal seems to have an additional bug though, maybe related to
tabs, that makes the scroll bar not appear even when doing the steps
described in this report.  It might be as simple as after switching
tabs, the scrollbar doesn't appear until you create a new line at the
bottom of the terminal.

Bug description:
  Not sure if this is a Compiz bug, but it's related to windows
  management. The type of scroll bar used in gnome-terminal was also the
  same as that in Firefox before I upgraded my system to Ubuntu 14.10 at
  the same time I upgraded Firefox to version 34 or so (so either
  Firefox, or some other program changed how scrollbars look).

  Switching to windows that use 'thin scroll bar', only ~3 pixels wide
  with no arrows

  If done quickly, it works fine as long as the mouse cursor is pointing
  at the window being focused to. If done slowly, by pressing alt-tab
  and holding alt, the scroll bar will disappear or become faded. Faded
  scrollbar is when alt is held for a very short period of time, so the
  application switcher menu only shows up for ~0.1 sec.

  Using static application switcher in compiz.

  Window's shadow border also sometimes longer to appear if alt is held,
  but it doesn't seem consistent or related to scrollbar.

  The 'invisible' part is an overlay that's the same colour as the
  background. If scrolling up or down, when the line representing the
  current location moves past the 'invisible' part, it's erased, so that
  if the line representing the visible portion is returned to that area,
  the 'invisible' part is smaller.

  Nautilus, gedit, and gnome-terminal all seem to be affected by this
  bug. The line isn't totally invisible, but being able to see it could
  depend on having an LCD screen that provides high contrast near the
  white range at that viewing angle. All three of these applications are
  demonstrating the bug for me right now, but I'm not sure if they
  always do.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443852] [NEW] Display bug for editing lines with full-width characters

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

I'm not entirely sure this isn't a bug with bash, instead of gnome-
terminal.

Full-width character, followed by at least one full word with a space
after it.

Example: あa a

With trailing space.

Typing before the full-width character causes the 'あ' to be pushed to
next line, with a blank space on previous line though if selected and
copied it will actually produce a space.

The 'あ' occupies two columns on the new line, but characters after the
first a are only moved one column to the right. The first a, or the
first character after the 'あ' including a space, is pushed two columns
to the right, covering the second character after the 'あ'.

A similar bug occurs when deleting characters before the 'あ', except no
trailing space is required. A character is duplicated but might be first
letter of first word on second line, or last letter of next word.
Duplicating one letter as soon as 'あ' goes to previous line is easy to
replicate; duplicating other letters as further characters before 'あ'
are deleted might only happen after resetting the line using up arrow
then down arrow, but actually just because of forward bug because
displayed characters change after pressing up then down. Second word on
line only seems to be affected if no other words after it.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443886] [NEW] Scrollbar disappears in windows like gnome-terminal

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

Not sure if this is a Compiz bug, but it's related to windows
management. The type of scroll bar used in gnome-terminal was also the
same as that in Firefox before I upgraded my system to Ubuntu 14.10 at
the same time I upgraded Firefox to version 34 or so (so either Firefox,
or some other program changed how scrollbars look).

Switching to windows that use 'thin scroll bar', only ~3 pixels wide
with no arrows

If done quickly, it works fine as long as the mouse cursor is pointing
at the window being focused to. If done slowly, by pressing alt-tab and
holding alt, the scroll bar will disappear or become faded. Faded
scrollbar is when alt is held for a very short period of time, so the
application switcher menu only shows up for ~0.1 sec.

Using static application switcher in compiz.

Window's shadow border also sometimes longer to appear if alt is held,
but it doesn't seem consistent or related to scrollbar.

The 'invisible' part is an overlay that's the same colour as the
background. If scrolling up or down, when the line representing the
current location moves past the 'invisible' part, it's erased, so that
if the line representing the visible portion is returned to that area,
the 'invisible' part is smaller.

Nautilus, gedit, and gnome-terminal all seem to be affected by this bug.
The line isn't totally invisible, but being able to see it could depend
on having an LCD screen that provides high contrast near the white range
at that viewing angle. All three of these applications are demonstrating
the bug for me right now, but I'm not sure if they always do.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1443879] [NEW] Find from typing selects hidden files

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

I think this changed when I upgraded from Ubuntu 12.04 to 14.10.

When searching by typing, which only searches in the current directory,
hidden files are now selected. This would maybe be fine except that
there's no feedback that a hidden file has been selected. Normally, if a
file exists it's selected and nautilus will scroll to its location. If
it's hidden, it seems like it doesn't scroll to its location.

So if you want a file that does exist, but there's also a hidden file
that begins the same way, there's no feedback that any file named what
you want exists in that folder.

As a practical example, gedit automatically saves the previous version
of a file to name~ when one is saved, which is a hidden file. When
sorted by modification date, that older file will come first, and
automatically typing will not indicate that the desired, non-hidden file
exists, although it can still be selected by scrolling after typing.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 495880] Re: File Roller cannot handle archive that doesn't encode filenames in UTF-8

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
The undocumented -O/-I option~

So unzip can handle different encodings, at least when I tested it. But
it doesn't handle them automatically. p7zip doesn't work because, as
noted in Bug #269482, it only handles UTF-8 and ASCII (or maybe
ISO-8859).

When I uninstalled p7zip and p7zip-full and looked at archives, some had
the pattern of mojibake that I'm used to, and some had a new type. None
of them were correct. So it's possible there is some automatic
correction and this is why Bug #580961 for unzip has been marked as
fixed.

Automatic detection can probably usually be correct, but it could also
sometimes be wrong. Either file-roller or unzip could probably improve
their automatic detection, and in case certainty is low communicate this
to users so they know there might be a problem.

Two other bugs, #592109 and #1199239, refer to non-ASCII filenames
encoded in UTF-8, which is likely to be the output from Unix-like
systems.

So non-UTF-8 encodings are probably from computers running Windows (?).

Some open-source programs that do automatic detection of encodings
include Firefox and, I think, gedit. Also maybe a bit similar to magic
numbers used to determine file types..?

This might be how those programs already do this, but I think the way to
detect the proper encoding is to interpret the filenames as a certain
type, and then look for characters, or character combinations, that are
unlikely to appear in a normal filename, or that can't even be output on
the file system type.

For example, the character '‚', U+0082 control BREAK PERMITTED HERE,
often appears in some languages when common encodings are interpreted as
iso8859(-number?). Either file-roller or unzip could test various
combinations to see what looks valid.

This is worse than an archive file saying what encoding it uses, but
basically it seems like some regions (like Japan) don't feel like using
UTF-8. The zip format, which is probably worse than other formats in
handling filenames, is probably still used because it encodes the
contents of files separately, which means it's faster but gives worse
compression than other archive formats. Maybe there are other reasons
it's faster too.

Having a unique file suffix for a certain set of compression options or
quality means that people don't have to worry about which options to
choose, and can't argue about which ones other people should use for
that suffix. There is probably also a sort of stigma attached to having
a poor compression ratio for many types of files, compared to other
formats. (For example, some non-zip archive formats can compress a
windows bmp file so that it's smaller than a png of the same image,
especially if the image has repeating portions.)

So either people can agree on a 'low-quality' archive suffix to use in
cases where actual compression isn't important, that's also operating-
system independent, or we will continue to encounter zips from different
languages that don't tell you how to decode the file names.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1444210] [NEW] Previewed files are not deleted

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Public bug reported:

It seems like this could be related to Bug #137308, where a user
complained that previewed files were being deleted.

file-roller, also known as Archive Manager, doesn't delete files that
are previewed without extracting them to a known location first. These
previews are stored in ~/.cache/.fr-random string.

I believe the /tmp directory is cleared each time the system is
restarted, but maybe the preview files aren't stored there for security
reasons.

eog seems to not store references to a file maybe by design; sometimes
when you change a file on disk, eog will reload the file, but it doesn't
always do so. So maybe can't rely on other applications that have the
file 'open' to actually have a reference to the index node or whatever,
and users will expect the preview not to be deleted immediately.

Currently, it seems like some, and maybe all preview files are retained
indefinitely, unless manually deleted. If a file is previewed more than
once, multiple copies are created. Over time this can add up to a
considerable amount of disk space.

  immediately.

  Currently, it seems like some, and maybe all preview files are
  retained indefinitely, unless manually deleted. If a file is previewed
  more than once, multiple copies are created. Over time this can add up
  to a considerable amount of disk space.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 495880] Re: File Roller cannot handle archive that doesn't encode filenames in UTF-8

2015-04-14 Thread Misaki
Along with the command-line version of unzip with the -O option, you can
also use the convmv command to change filenames of previously extracted
files. This works on an ext3 filesystem, but NTFS may give an error
because filenames are invalid. ext3 says the encoding is invalid but
still lets them be renamed to that.

So for anyone who encounters this bug report and is concerned
specifically with extracting filenames from shift-jis encoded archives,
these are the commands you can use:

(navigate to directory, and...)
unzip -O shift-jis filename
or
convmv * -f utf8 -t iso8859-1 -r
convmv * -f utf8 -t iso8859-1 --notest -r ; convmv -f shift-jis -t utf8 * 
--notest -r

One of the other bug reports links to this, which lists solutions and problems:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=483290

One consideration might be if files in the same archive use different
encoding types. It seems reasonable that they appeared that way to the
archive's creator, and thus they shouldn't be interpreted separately,
but it could lead to the wrong conversion method being selected.

The patch linked in that bug report describes the options -O and -I,
which aren't documented in unzip's manual pages, so it's possible that
patch is already applied. But it still didn't detect 'proper' encodings
for me when I tested file-roller, using unzip, on several archives after
uninstalling p7zip.

The patch also talks the current locale charset. Making assumptions
about the encoding used on files could be correct for many people, most
of the time, but will be incorrect for other people, and so is at best
only a partial solution. I don't know what the patch does after that
though.

Just for reference, these are other Debian bugs mentioned in that
report:

 Bug#197427: unzip: chinese filenames unwrapped on unix wrongly
 Bug#197428: unzip: zipinfo (and unzip) can't deal with chinese filenames like 
 miniunzip can
 Bug#339021: unzip: incorrectly converts cyrillic file names from

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1436595] Re: Images too bright

2015-04-04 Thread Misaki
While it isn't completely clear what the correct way to display images
is, if eog is in fact currently displaying them correctly it would help
to have an option to display them 'literally'. It doesn't seem like
there is any way to do this. Exact comparisons are helpful to diagnose
problems in other programs, or even for things like just understanding
whether the rgb to yuv conversion is linear or follows some other
equation, for someone who has encountered that situation without much
knowledge about it.

For example, suppose you want to compare whether Youtube's video player
is displaying a video the same as your local player does. You could
press F every time you switch to Youtube to cause it to go fullscreen,
then switch to the other player while staring at the same spot. Or you
could screenshot Youtube's display and compare to the screenshot. But if
eog is the default image viewer and it displays it differently from how
it originally appeared, you might make the wrong diagnosis and waste
time.

Bug description:
  Most images have their values shifted upwards when displayed in eog,
  and I don't think it is intentional. Reporting this as a bug is
  complicated because I am not sure if some programs, such as eog,
  change their display of an image based on screen settings for
  colorspace or gamma. I am not an expert on graphics, but something
  does seem to be wrong.

  So at least for my computer, eog seems to stretch out the range just
  above a 0 value. A very dark area will have a clear contrast between
  the totally black pixels, with a value of zero, and the ones just
  above it. In one image I tested, eog did not display any pixels with a
  value in the range of 1 to 5, as in the histogram of a screenshot of
  eog's display of the image.

  In comparison, a screenshot of Firefox's display of the same image had
  numerous pixels in the 1~5 range. The GIMP image editor displayed this
  image the same as Firefox, with the histogram showing that the pixels
  were being displayed without any adjustment.

  Basically, if a lot of different programs display things differently
  and inconsistently, some of them have to be wrong, and it seems likely
  that eog is. Due to inconsistencies, I'm not actually sure what is the
  correct, or the best way to display images, which might be different
  from the correct way.

  Programs used to test, convert, and display images:
  imagemagick
  ffmpeg (for conversion) and avplay (for display, since ffplay isn't provided 
on my distribution)
  eog
  Firefox
  vlc
  GIMP

  I thought Firefox was displaying non-stripped pngs the same as eog
  does, but it's actually slightly different. While gray areas are about
  the same as eog, red areas are slightly darker in Firefox.

  A description of how various programs display images:
  vlc seems to be the same as avplay, and both are different from either 
Firefox or eog. Dark red is a bit more like brown or orange, while contrast for 
luminosity or luminance (?) seems to be higher; I am just noting that it is 
different. This is for a png image.

  I thought eog was displaying all images the same way, until I
  encountered a png that worked differently. I thought eog was
  displaying this png without any adjustments, as it's slightly darker
  than how eog displays other pngs, but it's actually slightly darker
  with more intense colours than how other programs display the same
  image. But for all other images, eog seems to make them slightly
  brighter.

  Firefox displays jpgs without any adjustment, but most pngs are
  slightly brighter. As described, this is slightly different than how
  eog makes images brighter. If an image is converted with -strip action
  in imagemagick, Firefox shows the png without adjustments. A png
  output from ffmpeg is also displayed without adjustments. It seems to
  be related to the 'png:sRGB : intent=value' property but that would
  be a Firefox bug. It's relevant because it seems to adjust the display
  of images in a way that's similar to eog, though still different. If a
  stripped png is converted again without applying the -strip action
  again, Firefox will display it as adjusted; that is, brighter. This is
  also part of the evidence that the adjustment in Firefox, and

  than how eog displays other pngs, but it's actually slightly darker
  with more intense colours than how other programs display the same
  image. But for all other images, eog seems to make them slightly
  brighter.

  Firefox displays jpgs without any adjustment, but most pngs are
  slightly brighter. As described, this is slightly different than how
  eog makes images brighter. If an image is converted with -strip action
  in imagemagick, Firefox shows the png without adjustments. A png
  output from ffmpeg is also displayed without adjustments. It seems to
  be related to the 'png:sRGB : intent=value' property but that would
  be a Firefox bug. It's relevant because it seems to adjust the display
  of images in a way that's similar to eog, though still different. If a
  stripped png is converted again without applying the -strip action
  again, Firefox will display it as adjusted; that is, brighter. This is
  also part of the evidence that the adjustment in Firefox, and
  therefore in eog, is a bug.

  GIMP displays images without an adjustment, so darker than eog for
  most images.

  The 'display' utility from imagemagick displays images the same as
  GIMP, without any apparent adjustments.

  
  So GIMP, display from imagemagick, and Firefox all display jpgs as slightly 
darker than eog, without mostly skipping over the range of values just above 0. 
GIMP and 'display' show most pngs as darker than eog, while Firefox displays 
some pngs as darker than eog while others are displayed similar but with 
slightly darker reds it seems.

  I think all the images I've looked at had 'colorspace: sRGB' in their
  properties when I looked at them with 'identify' from imagemagick or
  exiftool., so if that's somehow related it doesn't seem like programs
  should display images differently. They probably all had 'gamma: 0.45'
  in 'identify' (though this shows up as gamma: 2.2 in exiftool I
  think), so I don't think that should affect image display either.

  For the unusual png that eog displays differently, none of the ways I
  used to convert it caused the output to be displayed in eog the same
  as the original. These methods included 'convert' from imagemagick
  with and without the -strip action; convert with jpg output; ffmpeg
  with png output; and GIMP exporting as png with background color and

Bug description:
  Most images have their values shifted upwards when displayed in eog,
  and I don't think it is intentional. Reporting this as a bug is
  complicated because I am not sure if some programs, such as eog,
  change their display of an image based on screen settings for
  colorspace or gamma. I am not an expert on graphics, but something
  does seem to be wrong.

  So at least for my computer, eog seems to stretch out the range just
  above a 0 value. A very dark area will have a clear contrast between
  the totally black pixels, with a value of zero, and the ones just
  above it. In one image I tested, eog did not display any pixels with a
  value in the range of 1 to 5, as in the histogram of a screenshot of
  eog's display of the image.

  In comparison, a screenshot of Firefox's display of the same image had
  numerous pixels in the 1~5 range. The GIMP image editor displayed this
  image the same as Firefox, with the histogram showing that the pixels
  were being displayed without any adjustment.

  Basically, if a lot of different programs display things differently
  and inconsistently, some of them have to be wrong, and it seems likely
  that eog is. Due to inconsistencies, I'm not actually sure what is the
  correct, or the best way to display images, which might be different
  from the correct way.

  imagemagick
  ffmpeg (for conversion) and avplay (for display, since ffplay isn't provided 
on my distribution)

  I thought Firefox was displaying non-stripped pngs the same as eog
  does, but it's actually slightly different. While gray areas are about
  the same as eog, red areas are slightly darker in Firefox.

  A description of how various programs display images:
  vlc seems to be the same as avplay, and both are different from either 
Firefox or eog. Dark red is a bit more like brown or orange, while contrast for 
luminosity or luminance (?) seems to be higher; I am just noting that it is 
different. This is for a png image.

2015-04-04 Thread Misaki
Some examples of how eog displays colours compared to imagemagick's display.  
These files were generated as follows, using ffmpeg:
 ffmpeg -filter_complex color=black:256x256,geq=X:240:128 -hide_banner -frames 
1 geq.png
 ffmpeg -filter_complex color=black:256x256,geq=X:240:128 -hide_banner -frames 
1 geq.jpg
 ffmpeg -filter_complex color=black:256x256,geq=X:200:128 -hide_banner -frames 
1 geq-200.png
 ffmpeg -filter_complex color=black:256x256,geq=X:200:128 -hide_banner -frames 
1 geq-200.jpg
 ffmpeg -filter_complex color=black:256x256,geq=X:128:128 -hide_banner -frames 
1 geq-128.png

convert geq-200.png -quality 100 geq-200.png.jpg
convert geq-200.png geq-200-convert.png


So these are images with a y (or is it y'?) value that ranges from 0 to 255, 
while the u value is at the mpeg range maximum for u of 240. The jpg and png 
images are different because the jpg images clip the y range when expanding it 
from 16~235 to 0~255, while the png images when converted to rgb allow the y 
values outside the normal range to affect the output colour. So the jpg output 
from convert is visually identical to the png it comes from, but on the edges u 
and v both have a gradient to produce those colours.

Then I took a screenshot of how eog displays geq-200.png, as well as a
screenshot of how imagemagick (display) displays png, and combined them
in GIMP. The jpgs are displayed roughly the same in both programs, other
than the differences due to clipping when expanding to jpeg range.


Firefox displays the images output from ffmpeg the same way as imagemagick, but 
displays the png output from imagemagick's convert almost the same as eog does. 
This similarity is much higher than for the images I tested for the original 
bug report. I took a screenshot of Firefox's display of geq-200-convert.png, 
cropped it and placed it on top of a screenshot of eog's output of geq-200.png 
(which is displayed exactly the same as geq-200-convert.png by eog), used the 
difference filter and flattened the image. (flattening an image might be used 
incorrectly here, but it's what the option is called.)

Then I used the threshold operation, from 1 to 255, so the vertical
lines are where they differed. All but one of the lines disappear at
threshold 2, the last disappears at threshold 5.

Basically, if a lot of different programs display things differently and
inconsistently, some of them have to be wrong, and it seems likely that
eog is. Due to inconsistencies, I'm not actually sure what is the
correct, or the best way to display images, which might be different
from the correct way.

Programs used to test, convert, and display images:
imagemagick
ffmpeg (for conversion) and avplay (for display, since ffplay isn't provided on 
my distribution)
eog
Firefox
vlc
GIMP

I thought Firefox was displaying non-stripped pngs the same as eog does,
but it's actually slightly different. While gray areas are about the
same as eog, red areas are slightly darker in Firefox.

A description of how various programs display images:
vlc seems to be the same as avplay, and both are different from either Firefox 
or eog. Dark red is a bit more like brown or orange, while contrast for 
luminosity or luminance (?) seems to be higher; I am just noting that it is 
different. This is for a png image.

I thought eog was displaying all images the same way, until I
encountered a png that worked differently. I thought eog was displaying
this png without any adjustments, as it's slightly darker than how eog
displays other pngs, but it's actually slightly darker with more intense
colours than how other programs display the same image. But for all
other images, eog seems to make them slightly brighter.

Firefox displays jpgs without any adjustment, but most pngs are slightly
brighter. As described, this is slightly different than how eog makes
images brighter. If an image is converted with -strip action in
imagemagick, Firefox shows the png without adjustments. A png output
from ffmpeg is also displayed without adjustments. It seems to be
related to the 'png:sRGB : intent=value' property but that would be a
Firefox bug. It's relevant because it seems to adjust the display of
images in a way that's similar to eog, though still different. If a
stripped png is converted again without applying the -strip action
again, Firefox will display it as adjusted; that is, brighter. This is
also part of the evidence that the adjustment in Firefox, and therefore
in eog, is a bug.

GIMP displays images without an adjustment, so darker than eog for most
images.

The 'display' utility from imagemagick displays images the same as GIMP,
without any apparent adjustments.


So GIMP, display from imagemagick, and Firefox all display jpgs as slightly 
darker than eog, without mostly skipping over the range of values just above 0. 
GIMP and 'display' show most pngs as darker than eog, while Firefox displays 
some pngs as darker than eog while others are displayed similar but with 
slightly darker reds it seems.

I think all the images I've looked at had 'colorspace: sRGB' in their
properties when I looked at them with 'identify' from imagemagick or
exiftool., so if that's somehow related it doesn't seem like programs
should display images differently. They probably all had 'gamma: 0.45'
in 'identify' (though this shows up as gamma: 2.2 in exiftool I think),
so I don't think that should affect image display either.

For the unusual png that eog displays differently, none of the ways I
used to convert it caused the output to be displayed in eog the same as
the original. These methods included 'convert' from imagemagick with and
without the -strip action; convert with jpg output; ffmpeg with png
output; and GIMP exporting as png with background color and gamma tested
(so four GIMP outputs total). The reason for testing background color
was that 'png:bKGD' is part of the output from 'identify' when the
-strip action isn't used with 'convert', and non-stripped pngs are
treated differently in Firefox so they could potentially also be treated
differently in eog, but as it turned out they weren't treated
differently in eog.

In 'identify's output, the original png does have very slightly
different numbers under Chromaticity, with five of eight numbers
different by
