XnView Software

Pretty good idea.

ACDSee uses Page Up/Down to switch between files and the pause key to start/stop slideshows. I'd say it be a good idea to use those controls for XNView, too.
I'm so glad that the options menu is lucid again, now that it has been cleaned up. Just don't create another options chaos as it has been ...

In reference to this old thread i first have to say: thanks a million for fixing the issues i brought up regarding the media preview (muting and volume control). But there are still two things i like to suggest:

1. It would be nice to have a setting to disable auto-playing of media files.
2. If you ...

As we all know the detail view has it's own little toolbar (up one level, new folder, rename, delete, ...). But only the default skin has the "View as" and "Sort by" buttons. Every other skin i tested does not have these. Has this got something to do with the missing .manifest file or do the skins ...

IIRC descriptions are stored in seperate "descript.ion" files in the same directory. "Comments" are stored inside the pictures.

Lostclown beat me to it.

Tried the latest version and it seems to work better now. One minor thing though: you can't right-click 2 files directly after oneanother. You first have to left-click the 2nd file and then you can right-click it to get the context menu. It works that way for non-picture files, but not for supported ...

One last thing: It's kinda strange that you only get a stillscreen preview for media files in thumbail mode. Isn't it possible to get a stillscreen in the preview area, if you disabled playing video files? Just seems logical to me.
Sorry i don't understand. Stillscreen preview??
You don't want ...

If you preview media files, and decide to mute them, the setting is not retained (like, if you watch a muted video preview, and then select a different video file the icon still displays the crossed out speaker but the sound is actually playing). It would be nice, if the muted status would be a ...

Ok, thanks for your suggestion
Thank you, too. But that suggestion wasn't even this threads primary intend. So i'd like to know if sometime in the future i can expect you people to do something about the stuff i mentioned in my very first post in this thread. If you don't, that's fine. I'd just ...

The best thing about XNView is that it's free (for personal use) and knows a whole bunch of filetypes (reading as well as writing). For a long time ACDSee user like me though the interface, operation and the settings of the program are still somehow strange and not too intuitively IMHO. Just my ...

I don't like your tone.

You're right about the first frame of video's being black, however it would be difficult for Pierre to know which frame to use as a thumbnail instead even if it were random theres still a chance it would be black.
I was just answering your remark about me not being patient ...

Patience, sometimes it takes time before you get a response.
Yeah well, my last reply in here was on September 4th. So i think i am patient.

But while we're at it: it would also make more sense if the thumbnail preview for video files would not display the first (key)frame, but some frame inside ...

So nobody cares or what? I'd consider my first point a bug.

Yeah well, and it doesn't make my PC go crazy when i'm right-clicking on files. So i had to uninstall it (SageThumbs) again.

Extremely neat program! I love it! Who needs ACDSystems after all?
