Find corrupted jpeg image files

Finds all corrupted jpeg files in current directory and its subdirectories. Displays the error or warning found.

The jpeginfo is part of the jpeginfo package in debian.

Should you wish to only get corrupted filenames, use cut to extract them :

find ./ -name *jpg -exec jpeginfo -c {} \; | grep -E "WARNING|ERROR" | cut -d " " -f 1

Find corrupted jpeg image files

This checks jpeg data and metadata, should be grepped as needed, maybe a -B1 Warning for the first, and a -E "WARNING|ERROR" for the second part....

Know a better way?

If you can do better, submit your command here.

What others think

the *jpg _needs_ to be quoted "*jpg" !

consider using `-iname` instead; especially in the case of removable media.

i see several problems with that...

- this only checks jpeg data, but not the metadata. 'exiftool -warning' can be used for the metadata

- it calls jpeginfo for every single file, which consumes a lot of resources if run against plenty pictures.

- case sensitivity/quoting

i tried to post an alternative, but seem to have failed at that :p

basically:

find . -iname '*.jpg' -print0 | xargs -0 jpeginfo -c find . -iname '*.jpg' -print0 | xargs -0 exiftool -warning
