Hi

I do not understand why the thumbnails for video don't work. I also installed the K-Lite Codec Pack but without success

I see the thumb of a few videos, (4 in 300) video that I have downloaded from internet/youtube
Can you help me please?

It is strange to you, then for me it is a real mystery
I hope this problem will be solved in the next version because it does not seem a little problem, I have sent only small video but the problem also with almost all films
thank you for your, usual, availability

boh

my video will drain from everywhere and many have no thumbnails and I have send you an avi, one mp4 and a flv. Not only a strange weird video.
Xnview probably not recognize new formats / codecs that are used now

Same problem here (Windows Vista). I converted some .mov videoclips I took with my Canon Ixus camera to .mp4 using Handbrake (default settings). Installed K-Lite Codec Pack. Mp4:s can be played but no thumbnails are generated by XnView unless I rename the files to .m4v but then they can´t be played.

same problem :
correct thumbnails in Windows 7 (64bits) and no thumbnails in Xnview for mp4
note :
- with Xnview
2.25 : no thumbnails for .mp4
AND .mov also
- with Xnview
2.33 : thumbnails OK for .mov

(without touch .ini) BUT no thumbnails for .mp4
Bon courage Pierre et merci par avance

Thank you for your answer but
1/ I don't understand "Code: Tout sélectionner"
2/ In xnview.ini, I can't find "VideoFormat"
"video" is found only in these items :
[Browser]
FitVideo=0
VideoFrame=1
VideoPlayBar=1
[Slide]
FitSmallVideo=0
[VideoCapture]
[View]
VideoFitAll=0
VideoLoop=0
VideoPlayBar=1
3/ So, In what part of xnview.ini may I add "VideoFormat=3" please ?
