thumbnails for ZIP files

Post by ehlmae »

*Since I don't speak English, I used automatic translation.

I am using XnViewMP 1.7.2.

Thumbnails are not displayed for zip files.

I used to think that this feature wasn't supported until recently.

However, I found out that cbz file thumbnails are supported.

So, I changed the name of the zip file to a cbz file to display the thumbnails.

It seems there is clearly some issue with how it works.

I am reporting this because I want the problem to be fixed.

1. When the xnview.ini file is deleted and the program is run for the first time,


customFilter=65279
thumbnailFilter=65531

Thumbnails for zip files are displayed, but if the Settings > File list > Custom filter is touched even once, the thumbnails are no longer displayed as in case 2.

2. When running with the usual settings,


customFilter=3745
thumbnailFilter=3713

0002.gif

Thumbnails for zip files are not displayed, but changing the file name to cbz makes the thumbnails visible.

After changing the name back to a zip file from a cbz file, the thumbnails are temporarily maintained but eventually disappear again.


Please tell me what I can do to solve this problem.

Thanks for reading.

Does this mean zip files don't support thumbnail viewing?

there is no thumbnail for ZIP, CBZ is a special format, it's a ZIP with only image files, so first file is always an image file

When I said thumbnail, I meant that first image file

I'm talking about the problem of not displaying that first image correctly.
