Can you view items with *all* selected categories

Post by airjrdn »

Running version 1.97.8

When selecting multiple categories it displays items with *any* of them. Is there a filter, or toggle to only display items with *all* of them?

Thanks for the reply. Is that on the roadmap, or would it be difficult to add?

I tried it, but it crashed when playing with categories & .avi files. I assumed it just wasn't ready for prime time yet.

I just opened XnViewMP, and when clicking on the custom subcategory "Lana" I created under Videos, it crashes. WinXP's error dialog box pops up offering to send data to Microsoft.

So, you have created a subcategory, and add a video on it, right?

It's a subcategory with 5 videos added to it. They were adding by dragging them from the thumbnail view onto that subcategory.

If you make the same thing with only pictures, same problem?

No. It seems to work fine for pictures. I can't really tell, but I'm wondering if I have one of the videos assigned to that category twice.

i can't reproduce, could you try to rename the xnview.db file?

I renamed the XnView.db file in C:\Documents and Settings\[MyUsername]\Application Data\XnViewMP to _XnView.db

A new XnView.db was created when starting XnViewMP (xnview.exe)

I right clicked on Videos and created a new category called Lana

I chose "Folders" at the top left and navigated to a folder with four .mp4 files

Each of the four play fine in VLC. VLC reports them as:
- H264 - MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1)
- Resolution: 640x480
- Frame rate: 25
- MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a)
- Stereo
- 44100 Hz

I highlighted the four videos and drag-n-dropped them to the Lana subcategory

The Lana subcategory updated to show 4 items: Lana (4)

I clicked a different category under Categories, then clicked Lana (4)

The application crashed.

If you retry with only 1 mp4, the same?
