Util to find corrupt jpg files?

March 16th, 2011, 12:14

Anything out there to find corrupt JPG files? Looking for Windows. I don't want to fix them, just find/delete them.

There is some stuff that was written for perl (http://search.cpan.org/~jhudge/Image-Te ... TestJPG.pm) and there was apparently a wrapper for it at some point (http://ask.metafilter.com/56264/Program ... -MP3-files), but the link is dead.

Like I said, I don't want to fix them, just fry them.

The guy who wrote that is still an active user on metafilter. Maybe you could ask him if he still has a copy of it lying around.

If you still want to fry them, backup the contents of the disk you want to save, and use a tool like DBAN to kill all the data.
