1.7.2: Major regression with HEIF
I just now updated from 1.7.1 to 1.7.2 and now XnView MP does not display my Sony A6700 HIF files properly. MacOS Ventura 13.6.7 (M2 Pro). This is an example of what 1.7.2 displays:
The thumbnail looks the same.

Yes, all my A6700 HIF files have this problem with 1.7.2. 1.7.1 is okay.
Re: 1.7.2: Major regression with HEIF
Where can I download 1.7.1? 1.7.2 is unusable for me. Thank you.

Re: 1.7.2: Major regression with HEIF
Suggestion: Please include the version number in the name of the download file. I had the 1.7.1 install file in my Downloads folder, but today when I downloaded 1.7.2 it overwrote 1.7.1 because they had the same filename: XnViewMP-mac.dmg. I checked my Trash folder, but the old one is not there. 
I suggest using a name such as this: XnViewMP-1.7.2-mac.dmg

Re: 1.7.2: Major regression with HEIF
Yes, I can send you another A6700 HIF file. Note that I have already sent you two A6700 HIF files so you should be able to use them. Let me know if those 2 files are insufficient.
Re: 1.7.2: Major regression with HEIF
I just now emailed you two Sony A6700 HIF files to contact@xnview.com.

that can be handy if done right:pulancho wrote: Wed Jun 05, 2024 7:18 am Suggestion: Please include the version number in the name of the download file.
1. download link must be always the same (preferably with 'latest' word in name)
2. server returns versioned file
example
- dbeaver
link to the latest version:
dbeaver-ce-latest-win32.win32.x86_64.zip
downloaded file:
dbeaver-ce-24.1.0-win32.win32.x86_64.zip
