http://forums.fedoraforum.org – Hi, Recently my machine has started doing some strange things. If I try and load a Jpg or Png in Gwenview I get a strange error "QImageIOPlugins not found". The files are where they should be and if I use Dolphins preview function or Digikam Editor the picture show correctly. Has anyone seen this type of behaviour before or have any idea what I can try to fix it ? I found a post on a similar issue through Google and it did suggest using "kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental" which I tried but that had no effect. Gwenview worked fine only a short while ago so I really d (HowTos)

Hi All,

I expect other people have experience this, and I expect it is a KDE4 bug at this point, rather than a distro-specific bug (since I have experienced it in other kde4 distros as well).

Specifically, when I use Gwenview in fullscreen mode (which is beautiful, by the way) the screen seems to flicker once or twice a short moment after switching to a new photo.

So this is going to be one of those "is this even possible?" questions. I need to upgrade a piece of my KDE from 4.8.5 to 4.9. Specifically, I need to upgrade Gwenview from the 2.85 version in KDE 4.8.5 to 2.9 version in KDE 4.9. It seems trivial but it's actually a fairly big deal for me. I recently upgraded my Ubuntu to 12.04, and that upgraded my Gwenview to 2.8x.

Gwenview is the default image viewer for the KDE desktop. Out of the box it's good looking but nothing obviously exceptional. Except for two things: Phonon and plugins. That combination really does make Gwenview a pretty useful bit of kit. Let's see what it can do.Category: End usersLicense: GPL

Hi all! I'm new to opensuse, just installed opensuse 11.2, kde4.3. Everything is functioning very well:)! but I'm experiencing a strange problem (at least, strange to me...;)).

I am running Slackware 13.0, which was running perfectly fine until some time ago. Recently i started facing problems with some apps which take more than 5 minutes to open, and when opened, respond ultra slow. This behaviour i've seen in Dolphin and Gwenview yet, both being some of the frequent apps i use on my system.

Hello. I installed VLC along with some other stuff suggested (i think it was called libdvd.. or something?). Whenever I insert a DVD, I still get the popup that gives me the options of:

Open with File Manager Rip Video DVD Titles with k3b Download Photos with digiKam Copy with k3b Download Photos with Gwenview

MTS Playback for Gwenview 39 weeks 11 hours ago

Hrm... no ideas? For what it's worth, Gwenview plays AVI files with no problem, and VLC plays MTS files with no problem.

Hi all,

Gwenview 3 years 22 weeks ago

Hi there, under KDE3 gwenview had a functionality to find duülicate images. Has this gone or am I just too dumb to find it? :O

If it no longer supports this functionality, is ther somethin similar available elsewhere?

Thanks.
