About:
Jpeginfo is a command-line utility designed to analyze and verify the structural integrity of JPEG and JFIF image files. It scans file contents to detect common corruption issues like truncated data or invalid markers, providing detailed technical metadata about the image. This tool is essential for automated workflows that need to validate image assets or diagnose rendering problems.
Key Features:
  • Comprehensive integrity checking for JPEG/JFIF structures
  • Detailed metadata extraction (dimensions, color space, quantization)
  • Fast, low-overhead command-line operation
  • Clear error reporting for corrupted files
Use Cases:
  • Batch validating image integrity in CI/CD pipelines
  • Diagnosing causes of broken image rendering on websites
  • Extracting technical specs from JPEG files for scripting
Alternatives:
  • file – Provides basic file type detection but lacks deep JPEG structure analysis
  • ImageMagick – A full-featured suite that can validate images but is significantly heavier to install
