open from network

Post by Danny » Fri Dec 23, 2005 12:18 am

If i open an image lying on a network drive, it'll open a new program window in order to display it, instead of opening in in the current one.

:) Hi !

I cannot confirm. Here, I open a picture from a network-drive directly in "View" in the same window…

- For instance, I opened : \\Claude33\DGROS6\Images\Bearz___Close_up.jpg, while the mounted corresponding drive is visible as U: in the tree of the "Open…" dialogue-box, no problem.

Can't confirm.

How do you open it, through folder tree?

Try default settings - remove / rename .ini.

Could you be more specific. Do you mean that when you open picture in windows explorer, it opens the picture in new XnView process (and you use the Only one instance option). Or do you mean that you use the XnView browser to open the image...

Please specify how do you open the file.

Found out what's causing it. You have to disable scanning of headers (only on fixed disks).

But first make sure your cache is empty or turned off.

Still can't confirm, with scanning headers option "never" and "only on fixed disks".

Please explain more. What Windows do you have?

BTW - I found another bug :bug: (I'll start a new topic).

Have you emptied your cache and disabled it?

No confirmation here. Might be related to filetype recognition problems in other posts.

Still the same thing with beta3. Once again the required settings:

- image from somewhere on the network
- scanning of headers disabled
- cache disabled
- browser NOT in thumbnail view (header of the file must NOT be scanned already (no colored backgrond behind the filename))

If you now open an image it'll open in a new program window. Tried with a completely new installation of beta3. Don't open the folder containing the files before you have made all the settings mentioned above!

Do you access network drive via UNC path or letter?

Direct network access (UNC path). I just realized that with the mentioned settings the problem also occurs with local files.

Danny, can you try with renaming INI before starting XnView?

I just did that and still got the same thing. I deactivated scanning of headers and the cache, switched to list mode, opened a folder which i had never opened before, opened an image within that folder and got the mentioned bug.
