Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to display a thumbnail on H265 encoded videos (mp4, mkv, etc...) using VLC as a player like with other codecs?



Best regards :)

    Hello,

    Windows Explorer
    Make sure you have not enabled the Preview Pane or the Details Pane which add a pane to the right in Windows Explorer.
    Visible with a small check, symbol of the V


    Workaround
    Try these methods:

    Method 1
    Open the Start screen (Start button).
    Open Windows Terminal (Administrator).
    Copy/paste:

     regsvr32 shmedia.dll 


    Then press the enter key.
    Close the terminal.
    Restart the PC.

    Method 2
    Download Media Preview
    (Media Preview 1.4.3 latest version).


    Go to the tab --►Video Formats
    Click on --►Select All
    Click on --►Apply
    Click on --►Quit


    Do the same if you have Audio files without thumbnails.


    A+

      For I don't know how many times: thank you pistouri, you're the boss of the bosses of the forum.
      Powershell didn't recognize the command, I chose this magic software instead, in less than thirty seconds everything is perfect :)
