I'm trying to use imread(filename) but it always to fial to open the attached tiff file , it open some other tiffs i have folder contain many images such as the attached , why openCV fails in that tiff and how i can overcome the problem.

I had opend this tif by using Paint ,ACDSEE ,... D:\Work\OCR\Sakhr\Images\IDs\Xerox\TIFF\TIFF\IDCar005.XSM\00000001 - Copy.TIFF

note the file extension is TIFF but the original extension is TIF , i changed it to TIFF because there is filter does not accept TIF

Another note , i opened windows explorer and viewed the tiff file properties ,it says the coompression is empty

edit retag flag offensive reopen merge delete

Thankx @LBerger , I know that , source of error is the tif compression not assigned , but how i solve this error in opencv , is there any fix to detect and load this tif , i see some other tools are able to detect the correct image format and correct image compression if they are not signed.. This tiff is obtained by famous scanner from Xerox so it's common case and i think opencv should fix this issue

With opencv I don't know. but I have read your image using wxwidgets handler for tiff images( In your image I have seen a white page with only few grey lines at top page). May be you can use too http://freeimage.sourceforge.net/ to solve your problem using exception throw by opencv
