XnView rendering RAW images incorrectly from the Canon R5MKii?

[stb11987]

Anyone having issues with XnView rendering RAW images from the new R5MKii? All my images are not rendering properly. I have consulted with Canon and they confirm the camera is working as expected, but when I view the images in Windows using an RAW Image viewer applet or XnView, the images are off center and barely viewable as they are washed out badly. I can see and edit the images fine in Lightroom. See attached Screenshot. I use XnView exclusively for workflow and would hate to have to jump to another product.

I am using 1.7.2 64bit on WIndows 11

I did change a few settings and it appears the issue is specifically related to the HDR PQ setting. If I disable HDR PQ, I do not get the issue. I am unable to attach the image because of the size...it is a 45mb RAW file. I get an error message saying the file is to large. I attempted to reduce the size using a standard bulk size reduction program, but it failed as well..Any other way I can send it to you?

A download link to the file on a file hosting service is the usual way, if you have a Google account you could upload it to Drive and create a download link available to anyone. Probably too large to send as an email attachment to the contact address on the xnview.com homepage?

Here is a google drive link to a sample image where the issue is happening. As mentioned, it appears to only happen with "HDR PQ" setting enabled.

Appreciate any help you can provide with this issue. I certainly realize it is likely more of an annoyance than anything...but the product is so helpful to me with my workflow...I'd love to be able to continue to utilize it because it is so good.
Cheers!
