XnViewMP 1.9.5
Windows11 (25H2), display resolution 3840x2160, dpi scale 150%


Browser - thumbnails
there is some issue with thumbnails generation (test files)

case A
  1. t from t file via exiftool

    Code: Select all

    exiftool.exe -ThumbnailImage<=t.jpg -overwrite_original 1.jpg
    it works - OK
  2. XnViewMP can read,rotate,delete,rebuild

case B
  1. t from source file itself via exiftool

    Code: Select all

    exiftool.exe -ThumbnailImage<=1.jpg -overwrite_original 1.jpg
    Warning: [minor] Writing multi-segment EXIF - OK-ish ?

    Note: unfortunately exiftool cannot automatically generate resized thumbnail from main image,
    so file size became twice bigger. Not sure if it is still valid tbh.
  2. open folder in Browser
    XnViewMP shows t in Exif info tab, but
    ignores this embedded thumbnail, does not show overlay icon and cannot rebuild

case C
  1. t via XnViewMP
    1. open 'orig' folder in Browser
    2. select files and press 'EXIF thumbnail - Rebuild' command
    nothing happens
