1.6.2 Generating thumbnails for "video" files hangs after a while

Post by pel9 »

Hi

With the newest version of xnview mp, since there was no issue before with those folders:
If I have a "video file" (extension mp4) with audio only or the video file is corrupt (happens during download sometimes), xnview mp hangs at those "incorrect" files to generate thumbnails. The thumbnail generation process hangs exactly at this one file then.

I can still open the context (right click) within the folder or navigate to files within the folder and play them with the preview, but as soon as I click another folder xnview mp completely hangs. Looks like the thumbnail generating process tries to generate thumbnails where no thumbnails can be generated and freeze the complete app.

Wasn't a issue before.

Cheers

The file, if you want:
