To be clear:

Do you have an XMP file (sidecar) attached to the image file?

It is a video file. And no XMP file attached. Metadata is in XnvieMPs database.

Moving files via drag and drop into new folder does work without error message and it keeps categories and colors. I need to correct myself. Moving files via drag and drop also removes all related information from that file. I had a file which was categorised, tagged, rated and color tagged. From a...

Already reported for v91b4. But still present in 0.92: https://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=95&t=37738&p=151128#p151128 Move to via context menu is not working correctly. It is moving files without tagged categories or color labels. Also it results in error dialog that source cannot be remov...

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.

I am having the same issue with 0.92. I am not sure if it is a matter of generating thumgbnails as Xnviewmp also hangs when thumbnails are already created. (Unless it tries to regenerate thumbnails every time).

Honestly I think it is more confusing the way it is now as they are neither tags nor categories. It's like not being fish or flesh. A better overall implementation or a strict implementation of both would imho do much better. Just one example: There is the setting to apply parent category automatica...

Settings->Catalog
Select the folder you want to delete and press delete.

Is there a way (easy or otherwise) to change the file patch for a file in the DB? i.e.
File in the DB: e:\foo\bar\001.jpg
Actual file: y:\foo\bar\001.jpg

if you remove ffmpeg on 0.90 & 0.91, what do you have? With 0.90 without external ffmpeg XnviewMP creates 1 thumbnail per file despite the fact that it should create 4 thumbnails per file. It does not freeze. With 0.91b4 without external ffmpeg XnviewMP freezes when it reaches the file I have sent ...

so when you change folder, no clear?

Yes.

i have the same behavior with 0.90 & 0.91 & ffmpeg. i've tried to use ffmpeg as command line, and there is a problem with this mp4. It's better to use internal video engine (based on ffmpeg) than use addon ffmpeg. I prefer the addon as it can easily be updated when a new version emerges. In my case...

it's better to use internal video engine Same result with internal engine. No thumbnails produced for this file. yes ffmpeg has problem with it I don't understand how this can be a ffmpeg problem. I have just tried it with external engine again. With the very same ffmpeg.exe in addons folder 0.90 p...

Same result with internal engine. No thumbnails produced for this file.

currently history is cleared when folder view is changed (folder, recusrsive) I don't think search history should be cleared. Why? Because I use it for some regex sometimes and its not funny when the regex is suddenly gone. I even think recent search history should get saved on close application so...

the video engine has a problem to gets 4 thumbnails with 0.90 & 0.91 if i use ffmpeg, ffmpeg freeze when trying to extract thumbnails with 0.90 & 0.91 I have used the external ffmpeg as addon and it was able to create 4 thumbnails with v.0.90. In any way the main problem is not that thumbnailing do...

Other software like ACDSee has both, categories and kewords. And I like this concept better. Why? Categories are more a general hirarchical structure vs. keywords that can be considered as associative content description. Therfor categories often come in a tree layout with tedious way to search and ...
