XnView Software

Brilliant, well done and thank you - if a long time overdue

I oppose this suggestion. In fact I have the English language file installed which is represented by an Union Flag and therefore suggest that the incorrect spelling of "color" throughout the program be corrected instead.

HEVC format videos now orientated correctly, thank you.

Yes, thank you Pierre for this great update.

Thank you Pierre, I look forward to the next version.

Thank you Pierre, I look forward to the next version.

No codec pack was suggested to me but the most commonly used one is a K-Lite Codec Pack. I refuse to use them due to bad experiences in the past.

That ini file hack does not work for me. It results in movies not showing at all.
Dreamer's exiftool command works for me and solves the problem.

Thank you.

This works but changes the date stamp which is a problem for me. Just an additional task to change it back.

It's a longstanding problem with HEVC format movies taken in portrait mode on you phone that Pierre doesn't seem able to fix, other than suggesting you use a codec pack.

It doesn't work here with XnView MP as already reported. Most phone (Google Pixel phones) videos simply don't play, all I get is a blank screen. Those that do play are not rotated. Other videos where I've used software to rotate these videos do play.

Same here. I have no interest in installing a codec pack which makes a mess of my system writing over everything else.

Same here.
Portrait videos from 2 different phones produce landscape thumbnails and are viewed upside-down for me.
They are viewed correctly in PowerDVD.
XnView Classic doesn't show them at all as if they don't exist.
I have to use a third party program to rotate my videos 90° to get XnView MP to ...

Better. Thank you.

No, I had bad experiences with such packages years ago and avoid them.
