XnView Software

Please see here further investigation: viewtopic.php?f=62&t=38488#p154642

Maybe a moderator wanna merge the threads?

I uploaded various crash reports that occurred while opening and scrolling media files in the latest XnViewMP (0.93). Most happen when scrolling through a large-ish catalog >1000 images, while previewing some of the images. I started from scratch with a new install (not a migration from previous ve...

This seems to be a weird bug and not present at all times. Also it seems that XnvieMP does not correctly handle assigned categories and ratings when moving. Here is what happened: 1. Move file to other folder via context menu. 2. When prompted that source cannot be removed skip. 3. Check in destinat...

Is it a new bug?

It's not a new bug. I have reported it 2 times already here and here.

Again and again, move to via context menu is not working. :evil: Error message: Can't remove source. However file gets created in destination directory. But not removed from the source. So it is creating duplicates. Edit: And still categories and color labels get removed on move also via drag and dr...

To be clear:

Do you have an XMP file (sidecar) attached to the image file?

It is a video file. And no XMP file attached. Metadata is in XnvieMPs database.

Moving files via drag and drop into new folder does work without error message and it keeps categories and colors. I need to correct myself. Moving files via drag and drop also removes all related information from that file. I had a file which was categorised, tagged, rated and color tagged. From a...

Already reported for v91b4. But still present in 0.92: https://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=95&t=37738&p=151128#p151128 Move to via context menu is not working correctly. It is moving files without tagged categories or color labels. Also it results in error dialog that source cannot be remov...

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.

I am having the same issue with 0.92. I am not sure if it is a matter of generating thumgbnails as Xnviewmp also hangs when thumbnails are already created. (Unless it tries to regenerate thumbnails every time).

Honestly I think it is more confusing the way it is now as they are neither tags nor categories. It's like not being fish or flesh. A better overall implementation or a strict implementation of both would imho do much better. Just one example: There is the setting to apply parent category automatica...

Settings->Catalog
Select the folder you want to delete and press delete.

Is there a way (easy or otherwise) to change the file patch for a file in the DB? i.e.
File in the DB: e:\foo\bar\001.jpg
Actual file: y:\foo\bar\001.jpg

if you remove ffmpeg on 0.90 & 0.91, what do you have? With 0.90 without external ffmpeg XnviewMP creates 1 thumbnail per file despite the fact that it should create 4 thumbnails per file. It does not freeze. With 0.91b4 without external ffmpeg XnviewMP freezes when it reaches the file I have sent ...

so when you change folder, no clear?

Yes.

i have the same behavior with 0.90 & 0.91 & ffmpeg. i've tried to use ffmpeg as command line, and there is a problem with this mp4. It's better to use internal video engine (based on ffmpeg) than use addon ffmpeg. I prefer the addon as it can easily be updated when a new version emerges. In my case...
