AVIF settings panel unusable

The AVIF panel has four options: Format, speed, min/max quant, min/max alpha quant. I think you kind of forgot the actual target quant, the main and most important setting. It would be like not having quality on the JPEG export. The min/max are rather advanced settings most people won't need to touc...

Re: 1.5.2 - viewer - crash - during HEIC fast scroll

I guess I'll try to see if there's any way to reproduce it, then, and check in a libheif fix if it's a new bug.

Re: 1.5.2 - viewer - crash - during HEIC fast scroll

Did you guys do any kind of triage or get crash logs on this? I might be able to track it down and fix it if I can see what might've happened. The odd thing is that 1.16 hasn't really introduced changes in the threading behavior, so I'm curious why one works and the other didn't.

Re: Scaling problem on Win10 for XNVMP - Version 0.97.0 64bits (Sep 23 2020)

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 0.98.1 . Please check and confirm the bug fix here. My system is Windows 10 version 20H2, scaling is 125%, image samples below: Original image https://sat02pap001files.storage.live.com/y4mkBFnHfET460mJeZ_kI5fQyRFmqVsRfU8XiBeR8_Bb5geCBTTw1Pej-l5i6XVq...

Re: patent free AVIF image format (AV1 key frame)

FWIW, xnview integrates both libavif and libheif, and imho libheif is now better at decoding (and encoding) avif than libavif, so there might not be a reason to keep both. One of the nice things about the format being exactly the same, swapping out the compressor and calling it another format is pre...

[0.93.1] Video that deadlocks browser

I have a video that consistently deadlocks the background thread that creates thumbnails; while things in the same folder can still be opened, any attempt to change the folder or close XnView will completely hang the whole program. (This was me earlier this evening.) 0.93.1 x64 on Windows 10 1903.

Cannot import clipboard after a while

I searched but I can't find a bug open about this. If XnView Win64 has been open for a while, which seems to be at least a few hours, but sometimes I have it open for weeks at a time, it can't import the clipboard anymore. It just doesn't show lit up as an option in the menu, nothing happens if I pr...

Re: .mp4 files locked after viewing

In Windows, video is via DirectShow. Unfortunately, that API generally holds exclusively open any video with an open handle, since it's always required to be ready to render the next frame without crashing. It's probably best to just assume that video won't work like images on Windows, and go from t...

Re: Groundhog day

Microsoft does explicitly say that runtime dlls should never be distributed by the app anymore, and the generic Visual Studio runtime installer should be used instead. Otherwise you risk local security problems in the version that was installed (if you can even get it to run; the new registration re...

Re: 0.92: Browser view areas goes black, restart required

FWIW, Qt 5.10 and up are supposed to have a ton of fixes for HiDPI display and GPU rendering issues, which might be related. XnView is currently on 5.9; now that there's a 5.12 LTS tagged that might be the way to go.

Re: patent free AVIF image format (AV1 key frame)

There's now an open source library for integrators: https://github.com/joedrago/avif Unfortunately, these formats don't support lossless mode, so webp's excellent implemenation will keep being around for that. That's not true in any way, shape, or form. AV1 lossless fits inside AVIF just fine. (As d...

Re: Option to disable XnView from starting up whenever we view an image in fullscreen mode

This has worked for me for years. Under Interface->Keyboard there's a "Pressing ESC once quits XnViewMP" option, do you have that set to Never? Either of the other options should do it.

Re: Several questions and suggestions

There's no one-click convert, but you can add Export to the command bar with a right-click->Customize on it. That's 2-3 click, at least.

Re: MP 0.89 x86: What happened to extrapolated/estimated resolution?

Version 0.89 is pretty old now. {DPI} definitely defaults to 72 (useless as that number is) for me on 0.92.
