Re: Dates de prises de vues en renommage par lots

Pour cet exemple,
1) sélectionner les 5 images
2) aller à "Batch rename" (renommage par lot)
3) cocher "name template"
4) écrire dans la case {EXIF:Date Taken [Ymd]}_aaaaaaaaaaaa_ (on peut aussi rajouter les heures min sec en écrivant H:M:S à la suite de Y-m-d)

Re: Navigator in compare mode

I means:
In the brower, I select 2 to 4 images, then I click on tool/compare (shift C). Then, a new window called "Compare x-z - XnviewMP' opens with the selected images shown side by side. At the bottom of this new window, there are a number of options such as showing / no showing grid, info, CRC ...

Navigator in compare mode

Hi,
I would love to have an option "show navigator" (as in view mode) in compare mode. This would help me to find corresponding areas of different photos of the same subject (to select the better one) when they are displayed at 100% magnification. Without this tool, it is a bit hard to find these ...

Re: 1.8.8 Cannot write GPS coordinates to JPEG XL

The specific issue of writing geolocation data in the metadata of a jxl file has been solved in 1.9. Thanks.
Remains the issue of removing metadata using "clean" in the browser mode. It works for jpg files but does not work for jxl, png and tif files (and may be some other formats I did not test)

Re: 1.8.8 Cannot write GPS coordinates to JPEG XL

Quite strange.

About 'clean metadata', I have just noticed that there is 2 locations for that, in the browser and in the viewer. The browser one is not available for TIF, PNG and JXL, but available for JPG, where cleaning is done losslessly. The viewer one is available for all these formats ...

Re: 1.8.8 Cannot write GPS coordinates to JPEG XL

I made some additional tests. There is a strange interaction between format and metadata (including GPS data but not limited to them)

1) I initially though that there was a specific issue with JXL files for "clean metadada" which is not available (greyed) for such files, but I have just noticed ...

Re: Window becomes small when switching between 1080p and 4k monitors

Same issue for me (on windows 10) when switching between the screen of the laptop (HD, 125%) and a big TV screen (UHD, 100%). Not only the windows becomes tiny but once the whole windows has been re-established to the full screen, the relative sizes of the various panes of the browser (tree pane ...

Re: 1.8.8: some JXLs shown darker than they are?

The issue comes from the ICC profile:
1) convert the jxl into png and/or jpg using djxl
2) compare the 2 or 3 files with XnView; They look very similar, but their looks depend on whether the color management (use ICC profile) is activated or not:- if not, all look dark, if yes, all look pale
What is ...

Stange behaviour of crop for hand-written values starting by 1 in fix-ratio mode

1.8.7 on windows 10
Hello,
A strange behaviour occurs when cropping in the "fix-ratio" mode (it does not occur in the free mode), with written values starting by 1, which compel the crop origin to be shifted leftward (if changing the width) or upwards (if changing the height)
To reproduce:

geolocation of jxl files

XnviewMP 1.8.6 on Windows 10
Hello,

I don't know if it is a bug of XnviewMP or an intrinsic limitation of the jxl format, but consider a jxl file without geolocation and you wish add one using metatada/edit GPS location. There are 2 cases

1) the jxl has been generated though lossless transcoding ...

Re: JPEG XL: --brotli_effort Option

Sorry, I don't understand the point: the range of brotli_effort is 0 .. 11. When non specified, brotli_effort takes the default value 9, which is an already high value, so there is no so much room for better compression (at the price of a slower process)

Re: saving in this format will discard any existing metadata!

I already transcoded all my jpg files into jxl files. There are two ways to do it:

1) decode the jpg files and re-coded them into jxl files with a comparable quality setting. This can be done using Xnview or cjxl.exe (under windows, downloadable from github/jxl, and there are also version for linus ...

Re: 1.8.6 - When saving as JPEG XL (JXL), the compression result is incorrect

Hello,
Also on windows 10. I made some tests with a 11 Mb PNG file, converted into jxl q=90 with effort 7 vs 9. The results obtained by Xnvivew are exactly the same (same weight and same CRC as the results obtained with cjxl.exe v0.11.1 (freely downloadable from github/jxl). In this example, the ...
