HI Tat, I don't have a OSX system to test against personally, but for those who do have OSX and wish to help investigate this bug with the imageio plugin it would be worth putting together a small set of test images that you see problems so that they can reproduce the problem themselves.
Also if we can settle upon an existing OSG example or a small mod to one that can help illustrate the issue then this would also help. For instance do you see the problem if you do something as simple as: osgviewer --image myimage.png Cheers, Robert.
