Incorrectly saving pictures as JFIF #158

Open chk1xn opened 2 years ago

chk1xn commented 2 years ago

Not sure wether this happened prior to 4.4.2 but just noticed that when I save pictures, they're saved as type JFIF. However they are actually JPGs. Altus simply assumes/appends a wrong type?

(Running Altus on Windows 10 Pro 21H1.)

additional info: when I use the "download" icon, the type (jpep) is correctly picked. just when I right-click on the picture, the save-as dialog is opened with jfif.

That's weird. Altus doesn't explicitly append any filetype.

not sure what's happening on my win machine then. sent you some screenshots...

This could be an Electron-related bug. Is this still happening? Have you tried with a newer version?

Hi Aman,

yes, when right-clicking on images to download them, the prompted extension is still jfif. I just updated my 4.4.2 version to 4.4.4 to verify, no difference.

What I've also noticed: when using the download icon, the Windows file explorer uses a filename like "WhatsApp Image YYYY-MM-DD at HH:MM:SS.jpeg". When using right-click it's the cryptic blob's name that is displayed in the file explorer's header (and which is actually identical for both ways of saving).

Cheers, Chris
