I was able to reproduce this error. Let me add more info:

4. On top click the button "show files in subfolder". On the screen it will show all ...

What's not to understand here? I quoted the part of the discussion I'm referring to. It's as simple as that.

Why are you quoting his message from 1 Oct when my ...

XnTriq,

I don't understand why you are quoting what was said earlier to defend the argument one message later. We are talking about this:

Videos won't open by double click ... Not sure if its a bug or just by design though.

To say that "double click = do nothing" could be by design is ...

I already knew that. You have too few messages to be the author or a moderator.

Just someone trying to help.
Even young children know what double click means. Therefore I don't find it helpful at all that you are undermining my ...

Why would it be by design that videos don't work but images do? With the same settings if you click on a photo, the photo opens in a new tab as expected but the video doesn't do anything.

In all software I have ever used in my life, when you double click on a video, it plays, except xnview. Xnview ...

I Thought maybe this was one of the problems you were describing. Only thing i can think that is different is your settings.
This is what i have. Maybe have a try at these...

Under interface>>Switching Mode... "Use Double click to switch Between" = Browser<>Fullscreen | Viewer<>Fulscreen , The ...

This seems to work fine for me. As soon as i double click a video file already playing in preview. Video quits playing in the preview and opens in the fullscreen.

That's strange because it doesn't happen on my computer (win 7 64 bit using 0.75 64 bit). If I double click while preview is playing ...

Both work in Windows 7 64 bit. I just tried now.

Windows XP 32 bit + XnviewMP Version 0.75 x32 (Sep 21 2015) > doesn't play videos
Windows 7 64 bit + XnviewMP Version 0.75 x32 (Sep 21 2015) > plays videos
Windows 7 64 bit + XnviewMP Version 0.75 x64 (Sep 21 2015) > plays videos

I can't play videos in Windows XP 32 bit in XnviewMP 0.75
I can play videos in Windows 7 64 bit in XnviewMP 0.75

Also your other problems in the chart are gone with v0.75. The preview window seems to act lots better.

Hi. I was exited when I read your comment so I installed XnViewMP 0.75 Windows x64 SETUP version to a Windows 7 machine. It plays videos but unfortunately none of the problems I mentioned in ...

The file you have sent already exist with exact same file size (bytes) and same creation time (seconds) but I still tried it and nothing has changed.

I wish it was possible to focus on the 3 important problems in 0.72 that I wrote in my previous message. The difference between 0.75 (97MB) and 0.72 ...

Could you try to remove or rename the .db?
I tried that and it didn't have any effect.

Could you try to remove or rename the .ini?
I tried that and again nothing has changed. It took me a while to figure out what .ini you mean. To help others, this is the ini location:

xnviewmp top menu ...

do you have a codec pack like Klite?
Yes I have K-lite codec pack 9.9.0 installed and, these programs play all videos:
1. windows media player
2. picasa
3. kmplayer
4. XnviewMP 0.72 (when you single click > preview or when you right click > open)

XnviewMP 0.75 doesn't play any video in any ...

With all formats?
Yes, I have tested wmv, avi, mpg and mp4. None work in 0.75. They don't play in preview pane or new tab or right click play. They do play in 0.72.

x32 or x64bits?
32 bit.

Which problems?
The problems that I have explained in the table. There are 10 problems with 0.72 video ...
