gthumb does not display every .ORF file in version 2.11.2.1-2. I have for
example 100 .ORF files in the thumbnail browser. Normally I select a file by
clicking on the thumbnail, press "f" and then the image is decoded and
displayed.  Now with perhaps 10% to 20% of my images this just does not work
anymore. I select the thumbnail but when pressing "f" a black screen is shown
or just the image that I had selected before. In the thumbnail view the image
properties on the left side are also not shown/updated. (The ORF-images itself
are all ok).  In version 2.11.2.1-1 this still worked ok.

Hello,

Are the images all shown when you "fully" see them? i.e. not the thumbnail,
but the single-image view.

I touched nothing between -1 and -2 regarding RAW processing, so I suppose
it's something outside gthumb.

Thank you,
David

Hi,

perhaps this is not directly a problem with raw-processing.

The effect is this: When I click on some thumbnails (it's shown blue),
it it seems, that it only looks as if it were selected, but in fact it
just is not.

Because if I select a "working thumbnail", the properties on the left
are updated with the image-filename, size, etc. And double-clicking on
it brings up the single-image view.

But if I select a "non-working thumbnail" after that, the properties
stay the ones of the image selected before. And double-clicking on the
thumbnail also brings up the other image selected before.

I checked this also with .JPG images and with these everything works, so
it might at least be a side effect with RAW images.

Greetings

Gottfried.

I can confirm this with 3:2.11.5-3 and jpeg files.  Sometimes (and
I have no idea when) double-clicking on a thumbnail appears to work, but
shows the previously shown image.
