Most common cause: the JPEG is not an RGB file (for example a CMYK JPEG or an image with an embedded ICC profile) and the VCL/GDI+ JPEG handler in many Pascal/Delphi setups will render those with missing or wrong channels. Other, less common causes are an indexed/8‑bit image or a bitmap PixelFormat mismatch after loading.

Quick checks and fixes:

  • Inspect the file in an image editor (Photoshop, GIMP, IrfanView). Look for "Mode" or "Color components" — CMYK or 4 channels indicates the likely culprit.
  • Convert the file to RGB (preferably sRGB) and re-save as JPEG or PNG. For screen display this almost always fixes the missing color.
  • If posting the file is impossible, give basic metadata: width×height, file size, and reported color mode/bit depth; that helps triage without the image.

Example: explicitly load as a JPEG, convert to a 24-bit bitmap and assign to the image component so the app does a clear RGB conversion. This pattern reveals whether the display pipeline is dropping a channel:

var
  J: TJPEGImage;
  B: TBitmap;
begin
  J := TJPEGImage.Create;
  B := TBitmap.Create;
  try
    J.LoadFromFile(FileName);
    B.Assign(J);               // convert JPEG to bitmap
    B.PixelFormat := pf24bit;  // force 24-bit RGB
    Image1.Picture.Bitmap.Assign(B);
  finally
    J.Free;
    B.Free;
  end;
end;

Notes and context: color-profile conversion can shift appearance; converting CMYK->RGB is normal for screen use. asked for code — the snippet above shows an explicit convert-and-assign approach. originally used a one-line load; that often works for RGB JPEGs but will not rescue CMYK/indexed files. If conversion doesn't help, consider using a library that supports CMYK JPEGs or checking for a corrupted JPEG header.

Unsure. Can you show some code?

there is a little code

image1.picture.loadfromfile(filepath);

please leave your email where I can send that picture to you.
