0.82: Constantly hangs when viewing videos (20.000+ videos)

[xnview]

Today I went back to 0.81 which works without those hangs.
There is definitiey a bug with your code in 0.82 that causes these freezes.

no change here, which video player do you use? on which format?

Portable XnviewMP x64 version with GOM Player.
Well, 0.81 does not freeze on the same environment. So the issue must be changes that have been done with 0.82. Can't help it.

If you want you can send me some intermediate build between 0.81 und 0.82 then I can tell you when freezing starts.

i've tried with GOM player on Windows 10 x64, and no problem

I have no freezes since I reverted back to 0.81.

and if you use another media player?

and if you use another media player?

I have tried with MPC now and same behavior.

In Process Monitor I can see ReadFile operations after starting it. But then there is suddenly a CloseFile operation followed by Thread Exit. And this is when it suddenly hangs.

are you able to try on another computer? i've tried on 3 computers, and no problem with GOM or MPC

I don't understand this. 0.81 does not have this. Again: If you send me intermediate builds between 0.81 and 0.82 I will be able to tell you exactly at what point this behavior starts. Then it might be easier to tell what is causing this.

i have no intermediate build, and i have not changed code for this function...
Is it possible to make a teamviewer session?

Of course you would have to create them. If you have not changed code for this function then it seems to be an unexpected side effect of some change.
I don't know how much you have changed between 0.81 and 0.82. But I would suggest a build that has 50% of the changes between 0.81 and 0.82. After that depending on the outcome.

That is what I can offer to try to locate the issue.

0.84b2 freezes too

[jadO]

Usually devs need to be able and reproduce the problem on their own machine and run a debug version to track down the bugs,

I know. This is why it would help to create builds for each changes that have occured between 0.81 and 0.82. That way the issues could be sorted out quickly.

when do you have freezing? when creating thumbnails in browser? when playing? Do you have tried with videomode=true?

It happends randomly. Where and how do I set videomode=true?

[XnTriq]

Where and how do I set videomode=true?

1. Go to Tools » Settings... » Integration » Paths » XnView settings and click on the Open Config Files Location button to find xnview.ini.
2. Quit XnView MP.
3. Open xnview.ini in your favorite text editor.
4. Go to the [%General] section, look for the videoMode entry and change it from false to true.
5. Save the changes.
6. Restart XnView MP.

@XnTriq: Thanks.

Do you have tried with videomode=true?

With that setting to true I did not have freezes yet. I am not optimistic yet. But will go on testing with that setting.
