XnView Software

Still not working with Picasa metadata. With "update catalog from files", XnViewMP V0.98.1 reads the names written by Picasa ( xmp-mwg-rs:RegionName ) : Solved Maybe "Update catalog from files" works, if people existed in the catalog before Even if people did not exist before, with "update catalog ...

I tried to select satellite view : XnviewMP crashes

XnviewMP V0.98.1 ( I only copied new version of xnviewmp.exe and z.dll into previous V0.98 folder)

Win 7 pro SP1 , 64 bits

"An unexpected error has occured ..."

Report file dump.dmp (zip)

it seems that you have lost the functioning of the database (the catalogue), perhaps because the photos have been moved, or the functioning of the "new" xnviewmp is no longer in line with the old catalogue. To re-establish this link between the keywords and the catalogue, you can use the "add" butto...

You can check modified dates of files in Xnviewmp's installation folder ... Some settings like toolbars are saved in .bar files etc. Categories names can be exported, and links with photos also. If categories are not written in metadata, xnview.db file must be backuped ( backed up? 🤪 ) Edit : Sorry ...

When I use the IPTC Editor to write initial IPTC, this information displays correctly in other programs. Now, here is the huge problem, and this has affected thousands of my images before I caught it --- when I edit the IPTC again, whether to add new information or to correct information, this new ...

I don't know how exactly (it seems that french version is different from english version)

Try to unmark :
Settings , Browser, Show ratings
and / or
Settings, View, Show rating and label color.

But "People" is just binary, and if I needed that I could very simple define a category for that by myself. Names of people that have been recognized by softwares such as Picasa, Microsoft Windows Gallery (maybe others ?) are written in some XMP metadata. I have more than 100 different person names...

Ok, thank you

We have to reduce height to 11 pixels, and width 165 px.

XnViewMp can sometimes use ExifTool but ExifTool is only an add-on here.
ExifTool standalone can provide a lot of wonderful tools, you should see www.exiftool.org ...

Je me dépêche avant mes vacances J'ai mis des résultats de tests en Anglais la bas : https://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=39741&start=15 ,mais c'est un post "Closed Resolved" En quelques mots , resultats provisoires, et en Français : Les paramètres à activer : (Outils, Parametres, méta...

Yes, I noticed the same thing this afternoon, exiftool needs 4 digits for hhmm ... If your filenames ( _xxx) does not contain any digit, you can first use Tools, Batch rename in XnviewMP to add an arbitrary timestamp In the first field, set {filename}_#### This will add four digits Then you can set ...

I'm doing some tests, see this thread viewtopic.php?f=104&t=39741&start=15
... but I ask more questions than I give answers

This man is a genius :shock: . Phil Harvey is the creator of ExifTool. I processed many filenames formats containing dates with this simple parameter: -k "-AllDates<filename" -overwrite_original In most cases, I get a warning, but the work is well done Exif dates and file dates are updated with the ...

It seems working with Microsoft metadata. But Neither browsing an existing folder nor Update catalog from files can create new people The only way is to delete / add folder in settings, catalog. XnViewMP does read RegionPersonDisplayName Edit: Maybe "Update catalog from files" works, if people exist...

First question: Can I find these photos through a filter? An idea would be to sort photos by 'date taken' : - View, view files in subfolders. - View, view as, details - View , Sort by , Date taken ... so you can select a set at the top or the bottom of the list When I have found them: Can I set the...
