I have Irfan 4.00 on two Windows XP laptops. When I view thumbnails of a directory that includes AVI files, on one laptop the AVI thumbnails will be generated but on the other I get an icon for the AVI files.
I checked all the settings in both installations and they appear to be identical. And especially, both have the AVI registered as a plug-in file extension.
I also copied the same files to both computers as I checked the problem.
(Also, as a side-issue, both have WMV registered as a plugin file extension but neither Irfanview will generate thumbnails for that file.)
Since I get AVI thumbnails in one place and not the other, surely I'm overlooking something. Here are other options that I've set which may pertain:
Misc 1:
* View all files in directory = enabled
Plugins:
* Try to load embedded preview image = enabled
* Load half size image = disabled
Perhaps I should re-install on the computer where things aren't working quite right?
Thanks for any tips...
