XnView Software

XnView: MP 1.01 64bits (Aug 8 2022)
OS: Windows 7 Pro 64bit

Cannot properly render 16 bit TIFF files

Effect: Image displays like a negative with incorrect pallette

To reproduce:
1. Double-click a 16 bit b/w TIFF file (from Epson Scan 2)

Expected behaviour: In previous version 1.00.0 it displayed correctly (though I suspect reduced to 8 bit without notification to user).
In XnView Classic a warning is popped up "This picture will be converted to RGB with 8 bits per component" and then displays correctly.

please send me a sample file

I think I replied by private message - but don't 100% understand the system as it says it is "Sent" but still seems to be in the Outbox. Please let me know if you didn't get it.

PMs for some reason remain in the Outbox until the recipient reads them, so presumably Pierre hasn't read it yet.

As PMs do not support attachments, presumably you included a download link for the file you sent?

Yes - I included a link. When I first started this thread I tried to attach an image but there was a message indicating some quote or other site problem prevented me from doing so.

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.02. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

Thanks Pierre - I confirm the bug is fixed.
