jpg corruption

[voidAndAny]

I've got a new camera (and a new SD card) and sometime files download result in corrupted jpg files.
Not always the sames files (if I transfer picture several times) more suprising, if I transfer picture twice without delete them between the 2 transfers, Rapid Photo Downloader add a number and all the pictures are alright...

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about the image corruption. I strongly suggest using a card reader to get the files off the SD card. If you don't have one a work around is to use a file manager like Nautilus to copy the photos from your camera to your desktop, and then use Rapid Photo Downloader to move them to your preferred destination, renaming them if you prefer.

Thanks for your advise, effectivly with Nautilus it's works great.
I thought it was because my destination folder was a symbolic link (my OS is on a SSD but my picture are to big so they are on an traditionnal disk mounted and linked with ln -s), I converted this link to a mount point (with mount --bind) same problem.

If I transfer the same files on another directory (on the same harddrive) no problem, so I think it's my hard drive wich have some bad sectors (SMART test return some failure but the global hard drive health is OK)

Problem seems solved, thanks a lot, and thank you for your software
