Title: Thumbnails - use inbedded thumbnails
Post by: Matthias515566 on April 17, 2016, 12:22:35

Pictures have inbedded thumbnails, when using this, the thumbnails are faster loaded.

As I said in previous post.. MC just ask Windows for the thumbnails,  I think Windows does this.

maybe windows do this, but xnview do it better and although there is only a 32bit version of xnview available.

But MC is a very good Filemanager.

nxview is a tool specialized in picture management. MC is more of a generic tool for all kind of file management. A tool that specialized in one area is already going to be better in just that.

But comparing MC with xnview is not really fair :)
xnview is a commercial product that cost money. They have a lot more resources and time to spend then me.

MC is free and is developed by me alone when I have time over. So sorry. I can't spend the that amount of time it would require.
I have to really prioritize what to spend time on,  spend 5-6 month on 3-4 new features and bunch of fixes.  or improve something that not many uses and that works okey to make it work extra good. Sorry....
