XnView Software

Settings>Companion files - show companion files

Currently when a file is loaded, XnView checks always if there is file.xm or file.ext.xmp

Should this be according to the activation of the 'Create or update XMP sidecar' setting?


No, "creating or updating" a sidecar file should be a separate option.

You said it "ALWAYS" checks.

When opening a file, It should only check (and then read the XMP) if the IMPORT options are checked on the Metadata page.

It should only write the file if "Create or update XMP sidecar" is checked.

As for the companion file settings, it only needs to check and process the XMP if the master file is deleted, moved, or renamed.

nope
I think it should stay like this:
read (Settings > Companion files)
* -- {ext}.xmp;xmp in Association list


write (Settings > Metadata > Sidecar)
'Create or update XMP sidecar' checkbox



On the other hand, I would probably merge these 2 settings tabs somehow as sidecar is a subset of companion files

Complément d'analyse par rapport à ma réponse précédente.

Dans ma config de paramétrage XnViewMP dans le module "Métadonnées/Companion" j'ai les options suivantes :
- pas de création ou mise à jour du sidecar XMP
- convention de nommage <nom de fichier>.xmp

Cette option est plus pour l'ecriture des .xmp
Actuellement, "<nom de fichier>.xmp" ou "<nom de fichier>.<extension>.xmp" si existe est chargé.

Du point de vue de la compatibilité, je vais demander sur le forum.

It seems that since adding the “Number of pages” icon or the second ‘Companion’ icon, my color image “info.png” no longer works very well.
At least a 12 x 12 pixel square must be added to the right.

Why two Companion icons ? (Compagnon pour la traduction en Français)

info.png

Sorry for the very late reply.

The bug is fixed. Thank you! :D

Complément d'analyse par rapport à ma réponse précédente.

Dans ma config de paramétrage XnViewMP dans le module "Métadonnées/Companion" j'ai les options suivantes :
- pas de création ou mise à jour du sidecar XMP
- convention de nommage <nom de fichier>.xmp

En l'absence de création ou mise à jour du sidecar XMP, XnView ne devrait donc pas lire des données des fichiers xmp présents.
Par ailleurs la convention de nommage du sidecar retenue sur ma config "<nom de fichier>.xmp" ne correspond pas à la structure des fichiers ".xmp" présents qui est du type "<nom de fichier>.<extension>.xmp".

Compte-tenu de ces paramétrages, XnView ne devrait pas lire les fichiers xmp présents créés par Darktable.

Il semblerait donc INUTILE DE CREER UNE NOUVELLE OPTION, mais plutôt de bien prendre en compte les données de paramétrages listées ci-dessus.
Compte-tenu de la structure des fichiers ".xmp" présents cela perméttrait même d'avoir 2 fichiers xmp distincts pour une même image :
- "<nom de fichier>.xmp" pour les fichiers lus et gérés par XnView si l'option "Création ou mise à jour du sidecar XMP" est activé
- "<nom de fichier>.<extension>.xmp" pour les fichiers gérés par une application externe telle que Darktable (mais je ne connais pas les principes de dénomination des fichiers xmp par les applications autre que Darktable.

Cdlt

:bugconfirmed:

ok, j'ai compris le probleme. Vous n'avez pas activé la mise à jour du fichier companion, est-ce normal?

For me, a unique features of XnView MP is the option for Companion Files. I use it to only show .JPG files in the browser and hide the corresponding RAW (.ARW) files. I observe unexpected behavior when I try to move a file. I have the "Link companion files for the following actions: delete, copy/move/rename" enabled.

When I am in the file browser mode and select Move (Alt+M), the .JPG is moved together with the .ARW RAW file. This is the expected behavior. However, when I am in the viewing mode and I select select the same Move option (again via Alt+M), only the .JPG is moved and the .ARW files stays. I would expect that in both cases, the .ARW file would be moved together with the .JPG file.

Here's the log, as requested.

That is deleting a file on a locally attached USB hard drive (doesn't send it to the recycle bin).

I have noticed if I delete a file on the system SSD drive, it does send the deleted file to the recycle bin. Here's a log of that, too.

Hi. I'm experiencing the same problem with Aurora Linux (Fedora 42), XnViewMP 1.9.2 Flatpak.
If I run XnView from console while trying to save image I get log:
########################################
############### UPDATE MENU ############
########################################
ThumbLoaderThread :: stop()
ThumbLoaderThread :: stop()
QObject::connect: No such signal MySaveProcess::progressChanged(int, QString)
QObject::connect: No such slot MySaveProcess::cancel()

And then messagebox with "An error occurred during saving!"

When I tried tgz version of the app everything worked just fine, with logs as follow:
########################################
############### UPDATE MENU ############
########################################
ThumbLoaderThread :: stop()
ThumbLoaderThread :: stop()
QObject::connect: No such signal MySaveProcess::progressChanged(int, QString)

Maybe this will help.

1. Master files always have this suffix "_s" and companion files are video files

not possible, filename should match



2. Master files are videos and companion files are saved frames from the video

I can reproduce - {ext} does not work as expected

case 1

master companion
* {ext}.abcd
jpg {ext}.abcd

a.jpg
a.111.abcd

case 2

master companion
* {ext}.{ext}.xxx
jpg {ext}.{ext}.xxx

a.jpg
a.111.222.xxx

yes right, currently 'Search' doens't check companion

Got two questions.

1. Master files always have this suffix "_s" and companion files are video files

example

Filename_s.jpg Filename.mkv



2. Master files are videos and companion files are saved frames from the video

example

Filename.mkv Filename.1653.xnf Filename.2323.xnf Filename.3434.xnf


I tried lots of combination on association list and none of them are working.

How do i accomplish these two?

Thanks
