@roger64: The jpegtran version that you've installed is the fork that I mentioned that still uses the old syntax and will most likely not work.

I'd recommend the following workaround:

1. Install the Wine windows emulator, if you haven't already done so.
2. Change lines 83 and 85 in plugin.py as follows:

old version:

Code:

            exe_path = 'jpegtran'
                
        args = [exe_path]

new version:

Code:

            exe_path = os.path.join(SCRIPT_DIR,'win', 'jpegtran.exe')
                
        args = ['wine', exe_path]

Make sure not to mess with the indentation otherwise Python will display some cryptic error messages.
