More on this. If I open the file with PIL first and resave it, it
works with Pygame.
Hope it helps,

I get jpeg images from about six different IP cameras. I know there
is different firmware in each of them. One of them gives a jpeg that
can be read via image.load() the others all throw an unrecognized
format exception. Obviously the problem is in the camera firmware,
but the real problem is that windows image viewer and nearly every
other application can open these files without problem. So it makes
me concerned that the loader for pygame is less forgiving than these
standard applications. I'm attaching a sample of the jpegs for your
review. Only Cam185.jpeg can be opened by image.load().
