Brother flatbed scanner's TIFs cannot be loaded #79

Closed ireun closed 11 months ago

Hi!

Test file: test.zip

This file was produced using Brother MFC-L6900DW. Seems like no TIF from this printer can be red by STA. I've tried greyscale, colour, single-page-tiff and multi-page-tiff (STA recognizes that it is multi-page but does not read the page itself)

All I'm getting is that file cannot be loaded:

IrfanView Info:

I'm able to open it on Linux machine...
I would suspect that Win version of STA is built with too old libjpeg or libtiff versions and this is a cause of the problem. But can't launch a Win version to doublecheck.

Opens for me in scantailor-advanced_1.0.18-qt5_win64_epdb, I forget whose build it is.

I've used ScanTailor-Advanced-1.0.19.x64.zip

Hi @darnn .

See https://github.com/ImageProcessing-ElectronicPublications/scantailor-advanced/releases :

1.0.19-qt5_win64 (aka 1.0.18-epdbtaed)
1.0.18-qt5_win64_epdbta
1.0.18-qt5_win64_epdb

Hi @ireun .

Qt6 has many "problems", including memory leaks. I do not recommend using assemblies on Qt6. See also #66 .

Hi @darnn .

See https://github.com/ImageProcessing-ElectronicPublications/scantailor-advanced/releases :
* 1.0.19-qt5_win64 (aka 1.0.18-epdbtaed)

* 1.0.18-qt5_win64_epdbta

* 1.0.18-qt5_win64_epdb

Hi! I have indeed seen those, I just think I had some trouble with ScanTailor-Advanced-1.0.19.win-x64.zip from there and ended up reverting to the one I was using. But scantailor-advanced_1.0.19-qt5_win64.zip seems to be working fine. Also, that TIF file doesn't open in the former, but opens in the latter.

Hi @zvezdochiot, I've tried the QT5 version scantailor-advanced_1.0.19-qt5_win64.zip and it indeed works fine, thanks!

Hi all.

:information_source: Mantainers made the wrong bet on Qt6, forgetting that the end user does not need an experimental sample, but a proven working tool.

@ireun , say thanks not to me, but to @plzombie (his builds). See https://github.com/ImageProcessing-ElectronicPublications/scantailor-advanced/issues/1

Don't worry, thanks for maintaining it! Kind regards!
