Comment (by fritsch):

 Reason: In older version, there was no two images, but only the "normal
 one". It's still not clear to me why image2 skips a small one away. I hope
 that's not some progressive preview or something.

 So in general you suggest, that we should be using image2 for our png /
 jpeg images if we only expect one image anyways, right?

 Code is here:
 https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/xbmc/guilib/FFmpegImage.cpp#L199

 Reason back at the time was, that we could shorting detection and parsing
 (is_jpeg, is_png) by a lot and then used the pipes directly.

 But if I get you right using the *_pipe was always wrong and worked by
 accident - we should use image2 instead?
