XnView Software

XnViewMP 1.4.5 64bit
Windows11 (22H2), display resolution 3840x2160, win scaling 150%

Viewer - metadata
test image has xmp rating (4) and color label (orange)

however, Viewer does not show them neither in Info, nor in top-left/right corner when file opened via double-click

it only shows after:
- press Enter to switch to Browser mode
- close image tab
- open from Browser
now rating and label are shown

ps. Catalog is disabled

try to update catalog from file, it works correctly

but Catalog is disabled as I do not use it

with catalog disabled i can't reproduce

hm.. I have 100% reproducibility

these appears only if image opened from Browser

right when opened from windows explorer, rating/label are not here

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.

fixed in 160

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.6.0. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

issue seems to occur from time to time

settings:
- default, except Catalog is disabled

to reproduce:

2. close xnviewmp
3. repeat steps 1,2 ~5 times
at least few times out of 5 tries there is no metadata loaded in Viewer (but Browser always loads)

test file:

• xmp (generated by Bridge)
