XnView MP 1.10.1 has been released, enhancing its status as a versatile cross-platform image viewer that allows users to view, convert, organize, and edit both graphical and video files. It is freely available for private, educational, and non-profit use, making it a popular choice among users who appreciate its extensive features, often found in commercial alternatives.
With support for over 400 image file formats, along with various audio and video formats, XnView MP outshines competitors like ACDSee by offering more comprehensive format compatibility. Notably, it can write 50 different image formats and supports ICC profiles in JPEG, PNG, and TIFF files. Users can access important metadata such as IPTC, Exif, and XMP, although batch editing of IPTC metadata remains a desired feature that is currently unavailable.
XnView MP provides a range of functionalities, including the ability to search for files by name or similar graphics, display histograms, and create scripts for batch image conversion and renaming. The editing tools available include options for color and size adjustments, filters, and effects, with the full version incorporating Harry's Filters 3.0. For JPEG files, it offers lossless operations like turning, flipping, and cropping.
Advanced slideshow creation is another highlight, along with the ability to upload images to FTP sites or ImageShack, and burn images to CDs or DVDs (the latter feature requires Nero Burning ROM). Despite some limitations, such as the inability to sort thumbnails by user-defined order, XnView MP remains a robust tool for anyone involved in image handling.
Overall, XnView MP continues to evolve with each update, making it an invaluable asset for both casual users and professionals looking for a powerful, yet free, image viewer and editor. Future updates may focus on enhancing user customization options, expanding metadata editing capabilities, and further improving the overall user experience
