XnView Software

- and jxl after that although not yet common it is AFAIK most advanced of these formats.


If the jxl was transcoded from an original jpg and the reconstruction is present, you can do jxl => jpg => rotate|flip => jxl.

This could be checked & automated by XnView or a script - I don't know if the ...

oxipng is great, would be a lovely addition to a near perfect image handling tool (XnView that is :D ).


Concerning compression or optimizing tools - instead of integrating 'em into XnViewMP it might be feasible to add post-scripting capability - i.e. to run any script "cmd.exe yadayada.cmd ...

For anyone looking to bridge the time until XnViewMP has animated avif support: The rather similar Nomacs does it (I'm using the Qt6 flavor) https://github.com/nomacs/nomacs

You can add additional image formats from some github repos, you just have to match the Qt version... using media autobuild ...

XnView: MP 1.8.2 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 64bit

XnView: MP 1.6.2 - 64 bit
OS: Windows

The recent update to the development version of the JPEG-XL decoder is not backward compatible - to be specifiic, the older decoder has a bug that didn't matter up until now. Alas, all images encoded with 0.10 are not readable anyore, so the lib for XnViewMP ...

'include' can't be used for that. Try to disable 'Settings>File list>Recognize only by extension'?


I've disabled "Recognize only by extension" and the .vtx files (i.e. every extension which is an image) show up without adding the extension to the include list.

However, back-fordward navigation ...

XnView: MP 1.3.0 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 10 64bit

I'm using an app which uses a custom image extension - .vtx are jpeg files with some custom metadata. I've added this extension to the "include" extension list, but navigation back/fordward (with cursor keys os the mouse wheel) when viewing an image ...

Using XnViewMP 1.0 on x64 Windows (10), XnViewMP doesn't play animated jpeg-xl - it just shows the first frame.

This new image format is able to significantly reduce the size of animated gif clips, like this one: https://acegif.com/wp-content/gifs/the-end-1.gif ... attached in a zip file is the gif ...

I'd use it for blind image selection (like getting ...

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 0.96 . Please check and confirm the bug fix here.


I can confirm it's working on Win64 - thanks!

I tried yuv444 and yuv400 images with 8, 10 and 12 bit depth. Firefox and Chrome support .avif now, too.

There seems to be a bug with rgb lossless ...

I completely agree. It happen a lot of time to me.
I vote for a confirmation dialogue box for moving an coping by drag and drop.

The avif is the still image format of av1, basically a modern webp (which is based on vp8). There is native support in recent Windows versions, but not in 1809 Enterprise builds or other older LTSC/LTSB versions.

In comparison with QuickViewer (https://kanryu.github.io/quickviewer/), XnViewMP (I'm using Win10 x86 and x64) has a larger delay upon loading larger animated .gif files - this is more noticeable when flipping though files on a network drive. Quickviewer is simply faster/leaner, but this is by ...
