image failing to load

Can load this BMP file named "img_palette_2.bmp".
Whereas "img_palette.bmp" works.

img_palette_2.bmp: PC bitmap, Windows 98/2000 and newer format, 128 x 160 x 8
img_palette.bmp:   PC bitmap, Windows 95/NT4 and newer format, 128 x 160 x 8

Comment 2 Sylvain 2017-09-14 08:18:27 UTC 
SDL_GetError() says "Compressed BMP files not supported".
The file was obtained by using "convert" tool.
Comment 3 Sam Lantinga 2017-09-14 14:57:38 UTC 
Compressed BMP files are not supported by SDL. Use SDL_image if you want to load them.
