Texture with `.jpeg` extension generates error

The .jpeg extension is not supported by ParaView for a texture, whereas the file is the same as with .jpg extension.

To reproduce with ParaView 5.11.1:

  • Load a dataset with texture coordinates (for example this one)
  • In the Display properties tab click the Texture combo box and select "Load..."
  • select the All files (*) filter and load a file with a jpeg extension
  • Error:
ERROR: In vtkNetworkImageSource.cxx, line 147
vtkNetworkImageSource (0x23f6c470): Unknown texture file extension: /home/francois/Documents/Demos_HPC/mining/mining_quarry/textures/Material_0_baseColor.jpeg

ERROR: In vtkOpenGLTexture.cxx, line 206
vtkOpenGLTexture (0x16f69240): No scalar values found for texture input!

(the second error is then repeated in a loop and it fills the Output Messages dialog)
