How do you open the movie?
But if you disabled the viewing of video, so xnview can't view it...

Strange I have "View / File list / Play movie" disabled all the time and I can watch movies just fine. I use the new "Items display" system :)

Update:
I just saw this error message for myself and I'm really pissed!

Pierre, either get rid of "View / File list / Play movie" or get rid of "Browser / Items Displayed / Video Files" you can't have both.

And why? The one says "View" and the other "Browser".

The one in Browser can do both (Show items in View)

Well... the word 'view' here refers to Menu>View>View as: Thumbnails, etc... (what is listed in those modes)
...not as 'Viewer'/'View'.

They are really for different settings.

Yeah not fixed.

:? reproduce
- Go to options and disable option "View / File list / Play movie"
- Browse (with XnView) to folder what contains video files
- Try to view any of the video files
= Error what doesn't make sense

I get the feeling this will be "Postphoned" which means everyone should switch over to using external media players with XnView until this is resolved.

This bug is fixed in XnView 1.82 Final.
