maybe date change detection would be safer?

If one swaps cat with dog in the same sidecar it should be the same size and no change detected

Hi,

I've written a python script which tags images and writes out xmp sidecar files. These sidecars are IDENTICAL to the ones xnviewmp creates.
Anyway, once my script is done, xnviewmp does not detect them. I need to select images and Metadata > Update Catalog from Files.

I feel this should be ...

Hello,

Currently when exporting images, i have to make a preset based on each album manually.
It would be awesome to have a {Album} Variable so I can export to folders on a disk into appropriate {Album} folders.

It's a folder a Synology NAS drive creates. It's hidden automatically when using SMB protocol but it shows up when using NFS protocol. It is Synology developers error but it would be nice to hide custom folders, like .thumbs or @eaDir or other such folders

I've got my mac mounted to a synology via NFS (yeah it does work faster than smb for me).
Anyway, is there a way to hide the millions of @eaDir folders that Synology leaves behind?

I tried using the hide files feature in XnViewMP but that obviously affects files, not folders

No, it seems just SMB only. The lockup usually occurs after the image has been dragged. So it's not a drag operation itself. I feel XNView is trying to write tags over SMB where the lockup occurs

Unfortuantely it is still a bug

I think it's just SMB from my testing - finder or other programs using SMB not an issue

All my JPGs are on SMB

Script is just a totally seperate python that creates a window to drag images onto. I should add, the lockup doesn't occur when dragging images, and it usually works 90% of the time, but occasionally xnviewmp will just lockup. I think it maybe more to do with it reading the ...

No python script is different, I think that's not the issue as I'm sure it's this same bug now

I too run xnviewmp from macOS to access SMB. Not sure if this is a Sequoia bug, but it used to be fine.

Yes, same bug.

related to this I think

I wrote a custom python that opens a window on macOS.
I drag the images over and they get automtically tagged (using exiftool and trained AI). It works great and xnvewmp will pickup the tags so essentially i get autotagging in xnview.

However, I noticed xnviewMP will occoasially lockup. It's not ...

Catalog filter panel is blank upon startup. Everytime I have to grab the panel, move it or shake it, it comes back then I drop it back docked. Next time I open xnviewMP i have to do the same

macOS 15.0.1 M1
xnviewmp 1.8.2 64

Actually, another update.

Beta 4 fixes the problem (when viewing the image).
However the thumbnails and thumbnail cache remains oversatured on macos.
