Crash on start

Jan Steinman · Post by **Jan Steinman** » Sun Feb 08, 2026 9:00 pm

Recently, XnView was unresponsive. I killed it using CMD-OPT-ESC — I don't know what signal that sends, but I assume it is not -9, and that apps have an opportunity to clean up when receiving the signal.

Now, it won't start — crashes immediately. The dump looks like it is complaining about a missing file: libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib.

I tried to re-install the newest version. No workie. I tried re-installing earlier versions. Nope. I looked in my ~/Library/Preferences for something obvious to delete. Didn't see anything.

I tried combing the Internet, and found the "crash" threads here, none of which seem germane. I do not appear to have a "xnview.ini" file anywhere on my computer, although I don't fully trust Apple Finder's "find" function.

Any ideas? I miss it!

Here's (most of) the stack dump:

Well, having a missing library suddenly show up is pretty strange.

So I went looking around.

/usr/local/opt/svt-av1/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib certainly did not exist. I swear I did not remove it! So I went looking for another:

Code: Select all

0> locate libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib
/Applications/FreeCAD.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib
/Applications/digiKam.org/digikam.app/Contents/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib

Hmmm… wonder if one of those would work? Which one should I try to use?

Code: Select all

0> ls -l `locate libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib`
lrwxr-xr-x@ 1 jan   staff       24 12 Aug 03:14 /Applications/FreeCAD.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib -> libSvtAv1Enc.3.0.2.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  4738632 29 Jun  2025 /Applications/digiKam.org/digikam.app/Contents/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib

Well, the first one was just a symbolic link to a slightly newer one. I decided to try the version 3 instead of the version 3.0.2.

Code: Select all

0> ln /Applications/FreeCAD.app/Contents/Resources/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib /usr/local/opt/svt-av1/lib/libSvtAv1Enc.3.dylib

Now let's see what happens:

Code: Select all

0> open -a /Applications/XnViewMP.app

It works!

But I'm still disturbed that the library "went away" somehow.
