JavaFX Image and ImageViewer not supporting jpeg - image

Question

I created an fxml file with an ImageView on an AnchorPane using SceneBuilder and through controller class I set the image with the code somewhat like...
#FXML ImageView;
...
void func(File file) {
Image image = new Image(file.toURI().toString());
ImageView.setImage(image);
}
But the thing is whenever the file is a jpeg it doesn't show. Though it works completely fine with png. I looked up the openjfx doc for Image. It says that jpeg's are supported. What's the catch here?
FXML code (test.fxml):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.image.ImageView?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane?>
<AnchorPane prefHeight="1080.0" prefWidth="1920.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/15.0.1" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="client.Testctrl">
<children>
<ImageView fx:id="imageView" fitHeight="1080.0" fitWidth="1440.0" pickOnBounds="true" preserveRatio="true" />
</children>
</AnchorPane>
Controller Class code (Testctrl.java):
package client;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.image.Image;
import javafx.scene.image.ImageView;
import java.io.File;
public class Testctrl {
#FXML ImageView imageView;
private Main main;
public void setMain(Main main) {
this.main = main;
}
public void load() {
File file = new File("image.jpg");
Image image = new Image(file.toURI().toString());
imageView.setImage(image);
imageView.setFitHeight(1080);
imageView.setPreserveRatio(true);
}
}
Main Class code (Main.java):
package client;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Main extends Application {
private Testctrl testctrl;
private Stage stage;
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
stage = primaryStage;
stage.setFullScreen(true);
stage.setResizable(false);
showTest();
}
public void showTest(){
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader();
loader.setLocation(getClass().getResource("test.fxml"));
Parent root=null;
try {
root = loader.load();
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(-1);
}
testctrl = loader.getController();
testctrl.setMain(this);
testctrl.load();
stage.setScene(new Scene(root, 1920, 1080));
stage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
