1.95.400.0 | 2021/09/15 | Technical refresh. No changes to the codecs. The viewer has been rebuilt with current tools and libraries. Windows XP and Windows Vista support has been dropped, with the new minimum system requirements set to Windows 7 SP1 plus all existing updates. Future versions may require Windows 10 at some point. 32-bit support dropped. Requires 64-bit CPU with AVX instruction set (available since Sandy Bridge - year 2011) or later. About 10% performance improvement when scanning folders to find pictures plus minor overall performance improvements throughout due to modernized toolset and libraries. The legacy 32/64-bit 1.9.360 builds from April 2017 with XP and Vista support are still available but will not be further updated. |
2017 -> | 2021 | The longest lapse in the history of software updates... |
1.9.360.0 | 2017/04/25 | FastPictureViewer Pro 1.9.359.0 64-bit was inadvertently built as requiring an Intel AVX2-enabled processor and would not load on older machines. This release addresses that issue. |
1.9.359.0 | 2017/04/23 | This release addresses an issue occurring on Windows 10 where the program can crash when right-clicking into a text input window where you can enter substitution variables. Those input windows can be found in the Renaming Template editor (F2) as well as in the File Utilities plug-in (Ctrl+F). The program customizes the default context menu for edit fields and add custom options letting users easily paste variables into the text, and a change in recent versions of Windows 10 caused the menu customization in FPV Pro to crash. The issue has been corrected. |
1.9.358.0 | 2016/04/23 | The plugin that uploads to Zenfolio.com has been updated, following deprecation of the Zenfolio API 1.6; Additional improvements were made to substitution variables and functions: {LTrim{Variable}} and {RTrim{Variable}} remove any leading and trailing (right-side) blanks from {Variable}, respectively, while {LTrim{Variable},n} and {RTrim{Variable},n} remove any blanks AND also shaves n characters. Say you have a folder naming scheme where you use some fixed-length prefix, as in "01. Holidays". Assume it's the parent folder for the sake of example, then {LTrim{FilePath[1]},4} will resolve to "Holidays". Additionally, {Trim{Variable}} removes both leading and trailing blanks. |
1.9.357.0 | 2016/04/16 | New substitution macros for renaming:
{FilePath[n]}, {RegEx{Variable}}, many functions such as
{Left{Variable},n}, {Upper{Variable}}, {TitleCase{Variable}}
etc, more casing options e.g. {FileName:3} or {FilePath[1]:2}, and new CRC-32 and CRC-64 file hashes using {FileHash:3} and {FileHash:4}, respectively. Functions and variables can be composed, e.g. {Upper{Left{FilePath[1]},4}} represents the first four characters of the parent folder's name, uppercased.
Note that this last example can use the
uppercase option of the FilePath variable
directly, as in {Left{FilePath[1]:1},4}
to achieve the same effect. |
1.9.356.0 | 2016/04/10 | Fix a regression where the color profile name was not always displayed when files had a color profile embedded. |
1.9.355.0 | 2016/03/27 | Improved overall detection of color profiles in tagged and untagged files. New SHA2 digital signature on the installer. |
1.9.354.0 | 2016/03/26 | Bug fix: color profile detection on some NEF files, references to Nokia Maps renamed to HERE Maps and fixed URL. |
1.9.353.0 | 2016/02/05 | Maintenance release, removed digital signature from installer (for now) and other small things. |
1.9.352.0 | 2016/01/03 | Small regression fix: 'B' (Black & White Preview) and 'C' (Check Highlights) keys were not working in GPU-accelerated mode in the past couple of builds. We also optimized the folder content enumeration, which should be quicker now. |
1.9.351.0 | 2015/12/22 | Routine maintenance release with small enhancements. |
1.9.350.0 | 2015/11/05 | Added first-class support for Cinemagraphs (aka Animated GIFs) which can now be played seamlessly within FastPictureViewer Professional. Fixed some PNG transparency issue with non-black background in GPU accelerated mode. |
1.9.348.0 | 2015/07/25 | Fixes a bug where the {ImageIndex} substitution variable is sometimes zero when used from a plug-in, such as from the File Utilities batch rename function. |
1.9.347.0 | 2015/07/17 | Fixes a regression in the batch delete function introduced in build 345. |
1.9.346.0 | 2015/07/12 | Small bug fixes and Windows 10 compatibility update. |
1.9.345.0 | 2015/07/05 | Fix to the Facebook upload plugin to accommodate the latest changes in Facebook permissions. FastPictureViewer Pro (licensed) now saves the Publishing, Deletion and B&W marks across sessions, which means you can use the X key to flag files for deletions, then quit the program. When you restart, the images you flagged will still be marked for deletion. This feature has virtually no impact on performance. |
1.9.344.0 | 2015/04/26 | Build 344 is a raw compatibility update (raw codecs refresh to v3.8.0.96). As a side note, if you don't yet own the full Codec Pack, check this out: we introduced the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack Import Plug-in for Adobe Photoshop®, which let you import almost any Raw files to most version of Photoshop. This helps fill the gap until your next Photoshop upgrade, in case your newest camera is not supported by your current version of Photoshop! Get your Codec Pack right this minute and install it on top of FPV Pro :-) |
1.9.342.0 | 2015/02/28 | Maintenance release with small performance improvements. |
1.9.340.0 | 2015/01/25 | SmugMug upload plugin adapted to track changes in SmugMug API. Nikon D750 High-ISO now correctly displayed. |
1.9.339.0 | 2014/09/28 | New "Megapixels" conditions in File Utilities. Raw codecs updated to 3.7 |
1.9.338.0 | 2014/08/17 | Camera Make and Camera Model conditions in the File Utilities batch processor. View Filters are now invertible. |
1.9.337.0 | 2014/08/09 | Flickr publishing plugin (P, Ctrl+P) updated to reflect Flickr API change, small bug fixes. |
1.9.336.0 | 2014/05/18 | Raw compatibility update. Also, the file extension casing is now displayed as on found on disk. |
1.9.335.0 | 2014/04/21 | New {FileHash} variable available for renaming. Supports MD5, SHA1, and SHA-256 hashing algorithms. Include for example MD5 hashes in file names using the fastest hashing/renaming tool available! |
1.9.334.0 | 2014/04/14 | Shift+Ctrl+C now copies the image pixel's to the clipboard, which can be pasted in all image editors and other graphics-enabled programs (Ctrl+C still copies the image file, which can then be pasted anywhere in Explorer). Includes the latest raw codecs (3.6.0.92) which fixes an issue with Sigma X3F files shot with the "medium resolution" setting in-camera. |
1.9.332.0 | 2014/02/03 | Fixes a small bug in the File Utilities plug-in where some advanced template-based renaming operations could lead to file names containing characters not valid for a file name. |
1.9.331.0 | 2014/01/27 | Build 331 is a raw compatibility update (raw codecs refresh to v3.6.0.91) |
1.9.330.0 | 2013/11/29 | Build 330 is a minor usability update. The holiday season has begun: great discounts on FPV Pro and FPV Codec Pack now! |
1.9.329.0 | 2013/11/16 | Windows 8.1 compatibility update. This is a recommended update if you are running Windows 8.1 already, or plan to upgrade soon. |
1.9.328.0 | 2013/11/04 | New options in the program preferences: 'Display Logo' (to disable the background logo) and 'Compute Histogram' (to disable calculations and gain a little speed, if you never use histograms). |
1.9.326.0 | 2013/10/24 | Rebuilt with the latest tools. If you also have the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack, please update both products together! |
1.9.325.0 | 2013/10/21 | Bug fix: After minimizing the program window to the taskbar then restoring it, the gadgets no longer move to the upper-left corner of the program window. |
1.9.324.0 | 2013/10/12 | Bug fix: the Zoom/Radar/Eyedropper gadget (Z) was not working very well with tiny images (images less than 192 pixels in either dimension). The RTF Annotation gadget (J) is now available from the taskbar's right-click popup menu. All FPV Pro components and codecs have been rebuilt with updated tools (MSVC 2013.4) |
1.9.323.0 | 2013/09/30 | Small usability enhancements: panning is now held when changing image or setting X-marks in 1:1-locked mode (with Enter key). Shift+Enter and Ctrl+Enter modes now accessible from the taskbar's context menu. |
1.9.320.0 | 2013/09/22 | Renamed the GeoClustering plug-in to 'Smart Auto-Grouping', and updated the wording of its user interface to make it easier to understand and use. |
1.9.319.0 | 2013/09/19 | Republished the installers. |
1.9.318.0 | 2013/09/15 | A new 'Siblings' condition has been added to the File Utilities plug-in (Ctrl+F). The condition allows for selecting (or not selecting) files which have (or do not have) a sibling of a particular type, e.g. select only the RAWs which have no associated JPEGs, or similar conditions. NB: The Codec Pack has just been updated with a fix to the Photoshop PSD codec which cures a potential stability issue that may cause FastPictureViewer to crash under some circumstances. If you also have the Codec Pack installed, please update it too! |
1.9.317.0 | 2013/09/15 | Added the missing B&W Preview stat to the EXIF Statistics plugin (Ctrl+I). |
1.9.316.0 | 2013/09/15 | Gadgets such as the RGB Histogram or the EXIF Shooting Data now move together with the main program window when they overlap it and the program gets moved or resized. Also made minor cosmetic fixes to the File Utilities plug-in and fixed small bugs. |
1.9.315.0 | 2013/08/24 | Raw codecs refresh (3.5.0.83), fixes a discrepancy with TIFF files created with onOne software, which were sometimes misidentified as raw. The optional bit-by-bit file copy verification is now also performed when moving image files, rather than just when copying. |
1.9.314.0 | 2013/08/18 | The program was not working correctly when trying to set the "Mark for Publishing" flag to all the filtered images (using Shift+Ctrl+P when a View Filter is active), and the view filter itself included the "Marked for Publishing" flag as a filtering condition. |
1.9.313.0 | 2013/08/17 | The gadget's opacity can now be set all the way down to 0%, making them fully transparent unless the mouse hovers them (the minimum was 20% before). Numeric pad "/" (divide) is now mapped to the "move file" command (divide is thus an alias for Alt+K, conveniently placed next to numeric pad "*", multiply, which is an alias for the Copy function K). Cosmetic bug fixes and small bug fixes in the File Utilities plug-in and IPTC Editor plug-in. |
1.9.312.0 | 2013/08/11 | File Utilities plug-in maintenance release with tiny enhancements. |
1.9.311.0 | 2013/08/04 | Added differentiated throttling on USB/Removable drives and Remote/Network drives, with new defaults, now overridable from registry values (RemoveableDrivesThrottle and RemoteDrivesThrottle). Those settings help reduce choking on slow devices or networks where (excessive) parallel loading on multi-core machines can cause severe congestions, leading to bad performances. Prior to build 311 removable drives and network drives were treated the same, with a conservative common throttle, potentially penalizing users with fast file servers (e.g. Windows Server) on fast networks (e.g. Gigabit Ethernet). |
1.9.310.0 | 2013/08/01 | Raw codecs refresh (3.5.0.82), fixes a discrepancy with TIFF files created with Nikon Capture NX software, which were misidentified as raw. |
1.9.309.0 | 2013/07/27 | Stability and performance release: fixes three extremely rarely occurring crashes and optimizes timing accuracy of very fast slideshows. |
1.9.308.0 | 2013/07/21 | The lost shadows/highlights indicator feature, available as an option to the Zoom/Radar gadget (Z), has been enhanced and now works in full screen, through the C key, in GPU-accelerated mode. A program option on the Personalization page let you control the behavior of the C key, from spring-loaded Lo/Hi (press to see both lost shadows and highlights together, release to return to normal), to Sticky Lo/Hi (press and release to activate, then press and release to go back to normal), to Cycle through Lo, Hi, Normal (press and release to see lost shadows, press and release again to see lost highlights, press and release yet again to return to normal view). The default is spring-loaded, which requires only a single key press, under the assumption that you only need a quick glimpse at shadows/highlights. In default mode you can press Shift+C instead of just C to enter a sticky mode, which stays on until the C key is pressed again. You can zoom/pan, change the image, rate, preview in B&W etc while the lost shadows/highlight mode is in effect, it just works seamlessly. |
1.9.307.0 | 2013/07/20 | Bug fix release which solves an ICC profile issue which caused some JPEG files to be rendered as solid blue or otherwise incorrectly. Also fixes an inconsistency when images containing embedded ColorMatch ICC profiles were mixed with images containing embedded Adobe RGB (1998) profiles, where the program was sometimes mistaking one type for the other. |
1.9.306.0 | 2013/07/14 | Extended the auto-advance (slideshow) speed range: now goes from 60 images per second to 1 image every 4 hours. Tiny bug fixes. |
1.9.305.0 | 2013/07/13 | Workaround for a crash happening when starting the IPTC Editor, when the machine has certain versions of NVIDIA drivers installed. |
1.9.304.0 | 2013/07/08 | More bug fixes: the program crashes when changing image folder while the Histogram and Room/Radar gadgets are both active AND linked. |
1.9.303.0 | 2013/07/07 | Tiny bug fixes: User-overlay disappears when resizing the program window in GPU-accelerated mode. XMP gadget very slowly leaks memory. |
1.9.302.0 | 2013/07/06 | Bug fix release (camera SN feature in conjunction with external XMP sidecar fixed). |
1.9.301.0 | 2013/06/30 | Camera serial number support extended to more camera models, such as the Canon EOS-1D X. |
1.9.300.0 | 2013/06/29 | Keep/copy file verification option. New {ImageIndex} macro available in renaming templates. Small bug fixes. |
1.9.299.0 | 2013/06/23 | Raw compatibility update (raw codecs 3.5.0.78). |
1.9.298.0 | 2013/04/28 | Bug fix release (fixed a high-DPI screen mode cosmetic bug, fixed one tiny memory leak, affecting very long-running slide shows when using the PNG overlay feature, as well as other minor fixes). |
1.9.297.0 | 2013/04/14 | The Black & White preview command (B) is now faster in GPU-accelerated mode as the color conversion now runs on the GPU. Added Bing Maps and Google reverse-geocoders to the IPTC Editor. The File Utilities Copy Action's bit-by-bit copy integrity comparison had a flaw when comparing XMP sidecars, which has been fixed. |
1.9.296.0 | 2013/04/01 | Fixes a cosmetic bug with the taskbar popup menu (plug-ins added to the wrong submenu) introduced in build 295. |
1.9.295.0 | 2013/03/24 | The Black and White preview feature (B key) has been enhanced: new visual indicator has been added, the Save As function (Ctrl+S) now saves as B&W when saving a B&W previewed image, the View Filters features can now filter on B&W previewed images, a new File Utilities selection condition on the B&W preview flag has been added (so it's possible to copy/move/export B&W flagged images) and the Convert and Export File Utilities actions now optionally honor the B&W preview flag. See this forum post for more information. |
1.9.294.0 | 2013/03/17 | A second regular expression substitution variable has been added for advanced renaming, {RegEx*}, which receives the full path as input (so it is possible to dissect the parent folder name(s) and use portions of them in the new name). |
1.9.293.0 | 2013/03/10 | One of the late refreshes of build 292 required either Windows 8.x or the Microsoft Platform Update for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and as such would not work on XP and Vista (or even on Windows 7 without the Platform Update). Build 293 removes this unintentional dependency. |
1.9.292.0 | 2013/03/03 | Publishing to 500px.com was enabled in the web-publishing subsystem. Additionally, small bug fixes and enhancements were made throughout. Includes the latest raw codecs 3.4.0.77. This release also fixes some potential security issues and has been internally reviewed and rebuilt with the latest Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle guidance in mind. This version is now validated for use with the (highly recommended) Microsoft Platform Update for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. |
1.9.291.0 | 2013/02/17 | Fixes a bug where some context popup menus would pop on the wrong monitor on complex multi-monitor setups. |
1.9.290.0 | 2013/01/27 | Fixes a bug where atomic file rename operations failed when the files were on a FAT-formatted USB stick. Also made a minor enhancement to the File Utilitie's File Copy operation. |
1.9.289.0 | 2013/01/03 | Fixes a small bug in the newly introduced batch file conversion File Utiltie's action. Also increases batch conversion and batch publishing to local device's speed somewhat, on processors featuring Intel Hyper-Threading Technology. |
1.9.288.0 | 2013/01/02 | New web-publishing plugin: Flickr. New Save As... command: Ctrl+S, saves the current image as a new file, in JPEG, TIFF, HD-Photo, PNG, GIF or BMP format. New Convert image format Action in the Files Utilities batch processor, converts any input format, including RAWs, to JPEG, TIFF, HD-Photo, PNG, GIF or BMP - fast! |
1.9.287.0 | 2012/12/29 | Adjustments have been made for better Facebook web-upload plugin integration. FPV Pro will soon become a "Facebook App". |
1.9.286.0 | 2012/12/28 | New web publishing destination: upload photos to your Facebook account or fan pages you manage. Includes our raw codecs v3.4 with 30+ new cameras supported (total supported: now above 430 models). |
1.9.285.0 | 2012/12/18 | Fixed an issue where the activity log (e.g. in the File Utilities plugin) would not work for Standard users (i.e. non-administrator) on Windows Vista or later. |
1.9.284.0 | 2012/12/15 | Fixed a tiny issue where the subfolder picker would no longer show itself after the program was minimized then restored. Also enabled the folder picker when running on Windows XP. |
1.9.283.0 | 2012/12/14 | Added a standard Open File command (Ctrl+O) and menu option, makes it easier for first-time users to find their way around FPV Pro. |
1.9.282.0 | 2012/12/12 | Added a new Getting Started utility, with new content for first-time users. Fixed the Nokia Maps URLs, which have changed to www.here.com |
1.9.281.0 | 2012/12/05 | Added a new context menu to the thumbnail strip, with a choice of small/medium/large thumbnails and fast/good/best thumbnail resampling quality. Fixed a Daylight Saving Time bug in EXIF time display and DateTaken File Utilties condition. |
1.9.280.0 | 2012/12/02 | Removed the option to associate FPV with JPEG files when installing on Windows 8.x, to work around a bug of unknown origins occurring on that platform. Speedier thumbnail handling throughout FPV Pro (Thumbnail Strip and Quick Navigation Slider) in preparation for the upcoming Thumbnail View. |
1.9.279.0 | 2012/11/17 | Speedier view filtering on SMP machines. IPTC Editor keyword entry bug fix: synonyms below current keywords now properly added. Minor changes for Windows Logo Program certification. |
1.9.278.0 | 2012/11/14 | Fixes a hang in the Zenfolio upload plug-in, occurring when the category fields were left empty on first-ever use. Added CEIP opt-in dialog. |
1.9.277.0 | 2012/11/13 | Changed our code signing certificate from Comodo to VeriSign Class 3, re-signed all executable, codecs and installers. |
1.9.276.0 | 2012/11/06 | Fixes an elusive bug that seldom caused the program to freeze when jumping around the image list very quickly in random fashion. |
1.9.275.0 | 2012/11/05 | Enhanced the batch delete function: sometimes, sharing violation errors caused files to be left behind or the program to hang, and sometimes the Thumbs.db file prevented otherwise empty folders from being removed. |
1.9.274.0 | 2012/11/04 | Fixes a small command routing issue introduced in build 273, which caused the X key to be ignored. |
1.9.273.0 | 2012/11/03 | View Filter matching count now dynamically updated, added explicit "mark filtered" menu options and keyboard shortcuts for X and P marks. |
1.9.272.0 | 2012/10/29 | Better plugin integration: prevent computer sleep in long running operations (like web upload), ability to minimize FPV from the plugin, plugin progress reported to Windows taskbar. |
1.9.271.0 | 2012/10/25 | Added history trail navigation commands (Backspace, Shift+Backspace), up to 1000 steps remembered. |
1.9.270.0 | 2012/09/27 | Fixed a crash occurring sometimes when alternating the use of the quick navigation slider and the delete function. |

1.8.247.0 | 2012/04/22 | Fixes an occasional hang (actually a loooong delay) occurring sometimes when exiting the Options dialog after having changed some preferences. |
1.8.246.0 | 2012/04/15 | Zenfolio publishing plug-in update due to API address change. |
1.8.245.0 | 2012/04/07 | Added tethering auto-prefixing (Alt+T), fixed a number of small bugs, introducing mouse gestures recognition. |
1.7.244.0 | 2012/03/19 | Added an option to reverse the image list's sort order. Works for name sort as well as all data/time sort modes. |
1.7.243.0 | 2012/03/15 | Added a Black & White Preview function (B key) to FPV Pro, allows B&W photographers to get an idea of what a picture would look like after conversion. |
1.7.242.0 | 2012/03/05 | Added ability to display a PNG overlay image over the program's display area. Great for displaying a translucent logo/banner for public presentations etc. |
