XnView Software

Thank you

Hi, I have all my photos (around 50,000) in the /home/froggy/photos/ folder with about 400 subfolders. I have a bunch of other jpgs and pngs that are in other folders but that I do not want them in the index. I'd like for xn to only index the /home/froggy/photos/ with the subfolders. Nothing else. I...

Two ways for tagging : 1) Edit Iptc/xmp You can add captions, titles, keywords, location, country etc ... but only in embedded metadata with current version (in files types which accept embedded) Settings are located in last tab, options. 2) Using categories You can add only keywords (= categories)...

Metadata>Update or create XMP sidecar Nope, either that didn't worked or I do not understand. https://i.imgur.com/IE3qFy0.png and https://i.imgur.com/KI40LxG.png I have tried both: filename.xmp and filename.extension.xmp. Same. Xnviewmp modifies the actual raw file and does not create the xmp file....

I have canon CR2 and fuji RAF raw images.

Which setting do I need to set to write the IPTC to an XMP associated with the raw file but not modify the original raw file?

Thank you

I don't know

I did set some IPTC, but I was expecting to add it to the sidecar, never the raw.

Tools > metadata > edit iptc/xmp

How to just save to the sidecar? I don't want to modify the raws ever.

I have a whole bunch of tags to do....

Thanks

the .original files are not created by XnViewMP if you don't use rotate or metadata edit, are you sure that RawTherapee dont create these files Yes, I'm sure that it wasn't Rawtherapee. I have been using it for almost 2 years and it never created ".original" files. BUT, I did enter/change some of t...

No, never.

That's why instead of going through the general support board/group, I came to the bug board/group.

Thanks

you have use rotate in XnView MP right? No! XnviewMP was open (on my left monitor). I opened Rawtherapee (on my right monitor) and selected one (only one) of these images in Rawtherapee 5.8 to edit. As soon as RT started the edit, XnviewMp created the second set. I didn't use XnViewMP to open RT. T...

I use Rawtherapee 5.8 (linux/manjaro/kde) to "develop" my images. I have a bunch of images, some are in the landscape mode and a few in the portrait/vertical mode. When I opened one of the vertical/portrait in Rawtherapee 5.8, xnviewmp created a second copy horizontal/landscape https://i.imgur.com/L...

Hello, are the images in the same directory ? No, I have 342 sub-directories hanging from /photos/ But...I have found that this is related to the building of the thumbnails. I need to go though each directory, by hand, to build the thumbnails and when the memory, which I monitor, goes to almost hal...

XNViewMp 0.96.4 appimage on Manjaro. My system has 12Gb of RAM. I have about 51,000 images of a separate hard drive. I'm running out of RAM and XN starts swapping which makes it extremely slow. What can I do to improve the memory management and reduce the XnviewMp footprint? Or is it too many photos...

Hi,

Is there a way of "integrating/cooperating" XnV and Darktable?

Right now, I'm using Rawtherapee but when will switch to DT when 3.0 is out.

How can I send a image from XnView to Darktable? Darktable seem to rely on the XMP files.

Than ks
