Fantastic, thank you both!

Is there a way to export the thumbnails?

Dec,

Update and use Ctrl+C.

Thank you! Any chance to directly export, not just to copy to clipboard? This way I have to paste it somewhere and set the correct name and date. Would be much easier if the decThumbsDBViewer could do this for me.

TIA

Ah, this is very nice, thank you, but does not (and probably when using drag&drop cannot) set the time of the created file to the time stored in the thumbs file.

Just this one wish... *saint smiley*

TIA

Sorry for the false alarm. I thought the plug-in was installed cirrectly but it wasn't.

There seems to be a problem here installing your plugin with the auto-installer. I was able to manually install the plugin. It works just fine now.

Can you explain how you manage to read TC's idb file ?
Thanks

I sent him the information and some sample source. Please contact me by e-mail if you need sample source too.

The file is actually quite simple: It consists of blocks of varying size. Each block starts with a 4 byte block size "n". If the highest bit is one, the block is a deleted (free) block. Then comes the data block of n-4 bytes (n includes the size), composed of a header tcacheheader and the data.

The tcacheheader looks like this:
2 byte signature: "NP" for standard size, "CP" for custom size
2 byte flags: currently 0
8 byte timestamp (win32 style file time)

With header "CP", the next 2 bytes are the width, and the next 2 the height, in pixels.

Then follow the compressed bitmap bits as 24-bit RGB with DWORD-aligned width (rounded up to 4 bytes). TC uses the ZIP compression here (deflate), it's using zlib without header (tcunzlib.dll).

Dec,
Any chance to support XnView's cache, please?
And, still, please, support exporting while keeping time and date, not only drag and drop... *saint smiley*

Thanks
