It will become relevant though. The author of XnView has shown some interest on the issue. If he implements an external app of the current Batch Convert feature of XnView it will support other features as well like crop, resize etc. It's part of nconvert anyway which is the corresponding tool to what the batch option of IrfanView does.

just my humble thought

As Imagine supports many image types, I would be in favour for it to handle file conversion. At least I would love it :)

Surely if XnView supports it also, that would be good for those users. I guess there might be more than one way to go.

Only a few people to "solve" this. The respective developers of these programs. Maybe they can shed some light as to what they think of the idea.

If it's already in the tool nconvert anyway, it becomes relevant indeed. Then it's more : why not.

Mistake:

nconvert = NuCov.exe (IV is prerequisite)


NuCov is better if we talk about integration with TC.

Confusing - since nconvert is this: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pierre.g/xnview/en_nconvert.html

Does it take %L as a parameter from TC?

Because IV (irfanview) does not, lst2mlt must be used.

I don't know about XNView's nconvert.exe - I was answering yes to NuCov supporting %L

You can find NuCov at http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/nucov.html

NuCov requires IrfanView 3.91 or newer.

It would be a nice idea if we could also be able to define the compression ration, subfile type, color depth and the like.
Please take a look at this one:
_http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=6449

It's main function is to resize image files of a variety of types. The result files can be of different format than the source, therefore, it can be used to convert file types (with a scaling factor of 1).

Yes i know that. I thought nconvert from xnview support %L.

Anyway, new version of ls2multi works directly with Ifranview, so it should with nconvert also. thx
