XnView Software

Hello:
To repo:

-Options>> Metadata>> IPTC&XMP Tab = "Rating and label" are ticked.
-3 jpegs in a folder name = ( im-001, im-002, im-003 )

1) Set rating on 2nd jpeg image
2) Reorder files so 2n image is 1st
3) Rename all files = im-001, im-002, im-003
4) leave folder
5) Re-enter folder
6) Notice witch file has the rating you set earlier, ( It's Not the one you set)

Hello:

I don't see this in bug tracker yet, so if anyone has time could you please confirm this bug.
I see it as a pretty big issue because it corrupts the database as I think we all use ratings alot.


thanks

Is this the correct way to reproduce the bug, Erixx haxx?

1. Activate Enable thumbnail caching (Tools » Settings... » Catalog » Catalog).
2. Activate Export rating in XMP metadata and Export color label in XMP metadata (Tools » Settings... » Metadata » IPTC & XMP » Rating & Label).
3. Create a new/empty folder (X:\Test\).
4. Put three JPEG files (void of any metadata) into X:\Test\:
   • im-001.jpg
   • im-002.jpg
   • im-003.jpg
5. Select im-002.jpg in the browser and rate it (View » Rating & Colour label » Average):
   • im-001.jpg
   • im-002.jpg (Rating: Average)
   • im-003.jpg
6. Reorder the files via drag&drop:
   • im-002.jpg (Rating: Average)
   • im-001.jpg
   • im-003.jpg
7. Rename the files:
   • im-002.jpg » 1.jpg (Rating: Average)
   • im-001.jpg » 2.jpg
   • im-003.jpg » 3.jpg
8. Point the browser to a different folder (X:\Fubar\).
9. Go back to X:\Test\:
   • 1.jpg (Rating: Average)
   • 2.jpg
   • 3.jpg

Hello XnTriq:

Great seeing you again, Also thanks for taking a peek in here.

Ok, I'm with you all the way down to here.

Point the browser to a different folder (X:\Fubar\).
Go back to X:\Test\:

1.jpg (Rating: Average)
2.jpg
3.jpg

My results are:

Point the browser to a different folder (X:\Fubar\).
Go back to X:\Test\:

1.jpg
2.jpg (Rating: Average)
3.jpg

2 Things I think maybe why your not seeing this.

1.) Your not keeping the same name scheme in your test all the way to the end ex. im-001
2.) I'm using batch rename dialog. (the rating still follows the correct image, just Xn is not keeping in sync with it)

Also note its easier to use people in the test so you can see the problem.

I think the problem here is Xn .db is not updated during the resorting of files.

Ha! Batch renaming (im-00#) did it! Once again, you caught a extra tricky one

See Issue 1031 for details.

Thank you, XnTriq
Also,

Thank you Pierre, for the speedy fix. It Says "Resolved" 0.84.

I hope your getting sleep. Bug tracker shows that a ton of work has been done over the past few days.


Thanks again...

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 0.84 beta 3. Could you please try and confirm the bug fix, Erixx haxx?
