How big,?  are there free space left on drive for it ?
Ctrl+L and you see the log..  Any error there ?
Do you have write permission to that folder ?

Pics are about 9 MB.
Isn't the log available as report.txt?
Yes, permissions and free space are ok, because when I try to resize smaller pics (each about 900 KB) in the same folder all works fine.

9MB is not that large.

It hard to say why without having an image that fail.. It can be anything. Like wrong jpg format that is not supported,  Corrupted, Using jpg features that the resize code does not support or something else

Additional informations:
No special in log written!
Report.txt shows: "Failed - Failed to save new file" for each image
Maybe a problem with included color profile?

More photo-details - Pictures created by photographer:

and here some details from working pictures:

After some more test with this extension, I think these pictures have an unsupported format...
How can the support for such formats extended?

Not be able to recreate that.
Hmm If Im reading the images correct.. One of the pictures are 1.2 GB ?

13500x9150 is very large. Not sure if there are a limit with the image library that is used. I don't have any images that big

No, the pic is about 7 MB
But the pic uses 1,2 GB in RAM!

Your assumption about image library could be a reason.

I usually use another tool for resizing, but I like the idea doing this in MC more ;)
