I can confirm the above behavior using XnView MP Version 1.6.1

It also happens with an empty 0 byte sized .MP4 file. XnView does crash when it tries to list the file / generate a thumbnail.

It does crash in other instances where .MP4 files are present in a directory. It might be something related to the header of the file. I'm trying to collect more information about the issue.

I'm on Windows 11 Pro 22H2.
