XYplorer Beta Club

Thank you for the informations. Unfortunately the root folder has no thumbnail after ticking Show folder thumbnails. Maybe I was a little unclear of what my objective is. Here the structure : RootFolder S:. └───RootFolder ├───SubFolder1 │ image 1.jpg │ └───SubFolder2 image 2.png Thumbnail for SubFol...

Hello everyone,

Can you set a folder thumbnail (automated or not) with an image contained in a subfolder ?
The root folder contain only folders and subfolders are only containing images.

Thank you

As I said previously, I can run the video previews on a VM (I'm currently running XYplorer from a VM to sort my files) and it works perfectly fine on my other computer. You are using a completely fresh installation without any former settings of XY in that VM? What you've written before that you tr...

I'm using the latest BETA version (found on the forum) v21.70.0106 de XYplorer and I'm using K-lite Codec16.1.2 Basic I have a GTX 1070 running the latest drivers and my BIOS is up to date. I don't think this is a hardware issue (i7 CPU and 32 GB of RAM) I though it could be because I have 2 very la...

No, I tried with a lots of videos (from a pool of thousands), some from years ago, some recent, some freshly converted to mp4.
The only consistency between test is the ghosting effect on the preview pane or preview tab.

1) Windows Media Player does not support auto-play AFAIK. But when you preview on the Preview Tab (instead of the Preview Pane) you should get auto-play for videos. 2) The recent beta (v21.70.0106 ) fixes a bug that might explain your video preview problems. You can download it here from the forum....

For completeness, if Windows Media Player is set to default, the preview is showing and playing but NOT auto-playing.
I tried with multiple players as default and only Windows Player is working fine.

I previously tested XYplorer with k-lite codec on a fresh Windows 10 VM with great success, previews worked. So I thought that my windows had too much clutter and I reinstalled it. Before anything else I installed XY and K-lite Codecs and the problems occurred. To conclude there is a problem (not re...

That particular setting was not checked. In my first post I said that audio was not working, that is not true; audio plays. Just the video that is not rendering. Or maybe it's rendering, just not proprely (ghosting effect suggest some rendering is happening). Hope that help figuring out the root of ...

Same K-Lite codec version.
It's not too bothersome to have 2 instances of XY running for me so for now that will be my workaround.

Thanks as always

No luck so far but after a lots of tweaks here and there, I noticed a strange behavior If I start 2 instances of XY, same folder, on the 1st I preview a video (not working), on the 2nd I preview a video (working) And vice versa A picture is worth a thousand words, so here it is https://imgur.com/a/8...

Well,

It's working in the fresh window (fresh; in the adress bar), see the screenshot
So I factory reset my XY by deleting the application data folder and quit without saving (as mentionned in another post)
But after I restart XY the situation loop back to blank/glitchy preview panel.

Weird

Hi,

Thanks for your time,

I'm running Windows 10 20H2 and the latest XYplorer version 21.70.0100.
As you mentionned, all revelents parameters are checked.

I should also mention that I tried changing the default app for mp4 and mkv to no avail.
I'm running out of ideas.

Hi, I'm testing the capabilites of XYplorer and I'm having a bit of a headache figuring out why preview not working as intended for me. Here a list of what works : - text , doc, ppt files and others - image formats including jpg, png, gif - music files mp3 What doesn't works : - video files includin...
