Problems with picture uploads in EOS
Posted: Sun Aug 10, 2025 7:54 pm
Hello,
I am experiencing a persistent problem when uploading images to an EOS gallery.
Some JPG files appear in the gallery after uploading, but others do not appear at all – even though they are valid JPGs and much smaller than the size limit.
To troubleshoot, I have tried the following without success:
Changing resolution (from small square images to large 1920×1080 16:9 images)
Re-saving the JPGs in GIMP and exporting with standard settings
Adding textures, colors, and details to avoid large uniform color areas
Matching the format, DPI, compression, and metadata of an image that does work
Using different file names and avoiding special characters
The same file uploads successfully if I rename and replace it with a different image (e.g., a photo), so the problem seems related to the image content rather than the file type or size.
Could you please confirm if there are any undocumented restrictions on:
Minimal complexity or color variation in an image
Certain patterns or large solid-color areas being rejected
A similarity filter preventing many similar images from being uploaded
Any required encoding or specific JPEG settings
This would help me understand why these valid JPGs are being silently rejected by the gallery and how I can adapt my images to meet the requirements.
Thank you for your help,
Carlo
