why don't you elucidate me to secrets of avoiding this fucking retarded image format since you're so fucking big brained? or are you just fishing for (You)'s? maybe you should kill yourself, since you're clearly squandering your absolute genius by writing one-note replies on a hungarian bread basting forum, you fucking cretin
I was scraping a bunch of website the other day to get all the images. For most websites I could just save the jpeg, but one stupid website returned everything is this retarded format. I changed the headers I sent to the website to exclude webp and it still sent webp. So I had to convert it on the fly to jpeg like the others.
We don't need any other fucking formats. Google shit me. They only do this to benefit themselves (to save k/b that they don't have to pay for) at the expensive of having a standard fucking format that people can rely on. Fuck google.
Camden Price
the real question is, why hasnt gookmoot enabled webp on here yet? it would be great
Daniel Murphy
You are part of the problem too.

I think the format is a pile of shit specifically because it's one more format to the bucket of "shit I don't want to deal with but have to" It's like .apng. yes it's a thing, but no I don't want to deal with it.
Cooper Diaz
generations of what? how were they degraded?
Benjamin Johnson
lol its not to save k/b, it actually costs them more money to keep up support for an extra file format. its so you have to go to the website itself and give them traffic and ad revenue. which is, you know, mostly run by google. it's a pretty obvious usage of their top down monopoly to manipulate people's behavior in one area of business so it benefits another area of business
Nathaniel Thomas
Add -- to both commands before the variable
Jason Cook
I was torrenting some weeb shit, and the faggot rippers included scans in webp format. On Debian GNU/Linux, I apparently cannot open webp with any imlib2 based image viewer, and opening them with mpv or ffmpeg is slow as fuck. Fuck technological progress 2bh.
Nathan Gomez
Filetypes are botnet
Ian Jones
Get imlib2-webp. If Debian doesn't package it, shout at the repo maintainers and build it yourself.
Jackson Ross
In a nutshell it's not about you but the website being hosted. Webp is now over 2X more efficient in compressing lossy and lossless images than JPG, PNG, GIF combined and even outperforms modern day PNG lossy compression algos which use 10X or more resources. Websites can't afford to host deprecated image formats like those mentioned anymore because it requires the use of more bandwidth which costs money. Webp: 1.) Saves money for hosting a website (less than half the typical bandwidth is now required) 2.) Loads faster for users. 3.) You don't have to have multiple formats for different image types, now one does the work of 3 (though webm is better replacement for gifs).
Grayson Butler
>look, ma', I replied to everyone! Otherwise true; if a PNG is served as a lossy WebP, change/remove your User-Agent header.
Caleb Green
You're complaining about botnet on a website "protected" by ReCaptcha, go fuck yourself, be fucking logic.
Jace Ramirez
whenever i use webp on my site it seems like its more mb though? shit just loads slower. starting to think webp is just some meme pushed by google.
Hudson Scott
Consider a standard lossless PNG. This one is 1.54 MB
I don't care to argue about lossless WebP because it's trivially converted to other format. Lossy WebP, especially when generated from PNG source and made loseless to save bandwidth, is the issue.
Isaiah Bailey
WAIT FOR IT you mongrel.
And now here is the webp version of it only 945 KB in size. Which one do you think a web host interested in keeping costs down and profit up will use?
Does webp have EXIF? Might be worth it if it's the only lossless compressed format that can do metadata. png is dogshit with metadata
Easton Baker
you got cherry MX reds in that beast?
Xavier Foster
NOOOOOOO DON'T GIVE ME HIGHER QUALITY IMAGES FOR LESS BANDWIDTH!!!!!!!!
John Morris
>"-metadata string A comma separated list of metadata to copy from the input to the output if present. Valid values: all, none, exif, icc, xmp. The default is none."
Here is my basic windows PNG batch script: for %%f IN (*.png) do ( cwebp -z 9 -lossless "%%f" -o "%%~nf.webp")
>no web browser support >no software support of any kind >literal who? virtually everywhere >in perpetual pre-alpha Are the devs who abandoned it at least putting their time and effort into avif?

Luis Sanders
Consider this lossless 1125 KiB FUIF image: files.catbox.moe/wo8r15.fuif Using latest FUIF commit, which is a worse version of what will be known as JPEG XL and also supports the extra features that FLIF also has (e.g. interlacing, downscaling) while still being smaller than the comparable lossless WebP (-preset drawing -m 6 -lossless) at 1154 KiB and without these features.
Don't care if it's in the lossless WebP codec; the image itself is quality-degraded from the source. I could've posted a ~650 KiB Q90 FLIF if I wanted to compete with "perceived" quality. The issue here is that the lossless source exists and is even available, but some providers use UA detection to provide degraded images to certain client. There would be no real issue if they were full-quality lossless WebP or whatever.
Nolan Brown
How the FUCK do I open this piece of shit?
Tyler Taylor
Compile FUIF (github.com/cloudinary/fuif) and decode it into a PNG or whatever. Note that FUIF is a mere tech demo; if you want it to be usable, wait for JPEG XL.
James Robinson
-lossless and -m cant be used together. Should be -lossless -z 9
Tyler Bell
Fuck that, webp already gives me migranes. Fuck off with your literally who? format.
PNGcuck was using lossy dithering in that thread IIRC. I'm actually surprised completely lossless webp was even able to reduce the file size of that even further.
My bad, 1146 KiB WebP then. Whole 7.7 KiB saved, not bad.
>JPEG XL >Literally who It's the actual successor to JPEG and PNG both, containing all the good features of FLIF (interlacing, downscaling, etc.) and PIK (and JPEG), not the AVIF thing that's only kinda okay for lossy stuff.
Lincoln Barnes
explain
Adrian Thomas
Does it even outperform Webp by a significant margin? I got around 100KB with a quality setting of 90.
Noah Hughes
It's an old retarded test from like 2015 using a highly outdated webp encoder testing what would happen if a clinically braindead retard transcoded an image over and over again for no reason hundreds of times with lossy compression. It's a dumb test of use to fucking no one.
Joshua Murphy
Sometimes, perhaps. Lossy FUIF can be even worse than lossy AVIF or even lossy WebP, but with PIK stuff, JPEG XL should improve on that too. Also, note that it's a different kind of compression with different quality degradataion. Unlike the VP8/AV1 inter-frame encoding, this one won't blur the image and delete fine details (but might produce more JPEG-style blocks, IIRC). Also note that FUIF is a mere tech demo. To get the full idea of what JPEG XL will potentially be able to do, also consider FLIF and PIK.
Luke Carter
What a shame, guess I'll wait for avif and use webp atm.
Caleb Cox
AVIF is just an improved lossy WebP without the decent lossless algorithm. Wait for JPEG XL while using lossless WebP.
Noah Wright
Nah, too literally who? for me. I'd rather just experiment more with the advanced params of webp. Webp related was made with the following params: -preset drawing -sharp_yuv -m 6 -sns 70 -f 50 -size 150000 -pass 10
WebP doesn't support many of the features of FLIF/FUIF/PIK/JPEG XL, such as being interlaced (decode into lower res version by truncating data) or being able to losslessly reencode and compress lossy JPEGs. For lossy stuff, you always want to balance quality with size. Toy around with cwebp's -q, -psnr, -size; try -af and other such silly stuff, but then actually do compare the images. There's no single magical loss option that will work well for every example.
Eli Morales
based and retarded
John Smith
You niBBas are forgetting we can post Webp files here, script related:
>using dumb hacks to post an oudated image format for what purpose though
Grayson Gutierrez
Webp, like Linux, is only promoted by pedos, gay pedos.
Leo Ross
Slightly better, but still worse than the WebP in , which is smaller than your WebM
Sebastian Hernandez
HQ high res wallpapers or pics that load faster I guess. 4chink maxes out rest at 2048x2048 tho so the hack can only go so far. Also someone figured out how to hack it to put entire manga chapters in a single Webm under 3MB but I lost the script for that. It used -g 1 param, that much I remember.
Julian Hill
Just use gyazo to copy the image from the search results.
They'll probably make screenshots illegal when they're done with vapes though.
Jack Rivera
Obviously re-encoding the output over and over. When you encode from lossy format to lossy format data loss will occur.
If you open a JPEG and save as JPEG, take the output ans save it as JPEG, and so on for 500 times, that's what you get.
Adam Taylor
>shitting on open sores webp Have you no shame, Jow Forums? Would have you all preferred another royalty fee ridden mpeg abomination have taken over?
Dominic Gutierrez
>using a encoder from 2009 while comparing it to other formats with modern encoders Talk about bias, you're actually retarded. Enjoy this (You).
Jaxon Hall
I remember trying to save some webp shit from tenor and it didn't save the actual webp file or something, and I was not able to transcode from webp to webm or gif.
Juan Jenkins
webp is fucking cancer and i make sure to search through my hdd every now and then and delete any webp files i may have accidentally saved.
Aiden Adams
>When you encode from lossy format to lossy format data loss will occur. Fun fact: PIK (and upcoming JPEG XL) can be used to losslessly reencode JPEG while also compressing it.
Luke Torres
Works for me. >user closed this permanently >user added wontfix label
Just adjust the bitrate to change the resultant output quality and change the -i param as needed else make sure your JPG image files read img_001, img_002, img_003...
>2.) Loads faster for users. It would be even faster if WebP would support progressive decoding like JPG or PNG. >3.) You don't have to have multiple formats for different image types, now one does the work of 3 That is not really positive or negative. Purists will argue that it muddles the immediate understanding of which compression is applied. Personally I have at least a problem with lossy and lossless WebP being to independent compression algorithms.
Connor Harris
-z implies -lossless
Joshua Perry
JPEG XL will solve all of these issues.
Oliver Lee
Perhaps in older versions. -m is now just the speed setting and can be used for both lossy and lossless WebP.
Kayden Taylor
So -m implies lossy?
Nathan Brooks
>SIKE
Oliver Hughes
god i wish that was me
Charles Ortiz
Nah, webp is here to stay. Progressive decoding isn't really a necessity when images are 480p-1080p 50-200KB files.
Webp works fine. Can't stop everyone from mislabeling file types.
Maybe you should only identify files by MIME type rather than file name, eh.
Julian Baker
Yes
Thomas Murphy
No
Parker Scott
Are people really too braindead to install nomacs to view them and use gimp to edit them? Doesn't photoshop have a webp plug-in by now?
Eli Perez

Parker Rodriguez
-m does not imply lossy and does not turn off -lossless
Adam Kelly
>AVIF is just an improved lossy WebP without the decent lossless algorithm. AV1's intra compression is much more efficient than VP8's and it does offer a pretty good lossless compression (close or equal to FLIF).
a) -lag-in-frames won't be used without alternate reference frames and even then it's pretty useless, if you just encode a single keyframe. b) Activating B-frames is just as pointless and VP8 doesn't even have them. c) It's better to use constant quality or constrained quality (with a very high bitrate) for these "WebP hacks". d) You don't need to loop the image, if you just encode one frame. e) You don't need to suppress audio output, if there's no audio input.
No. -m is just the general speed setting and can be used for lossy and lossless WebP. -z is the speed settings specifically for lossless WebP and basically includes -m as well as some other options.
Gabriel Bell
It should, it uses macroblock prediction malarchy aimed for lossy encoding. -z uses exhaustive searches that actually benefit lossless encoding.
Jonathan Lewis
>close or equal to FLIF Even if it is close, it lacks all the other features FLIF has. Not worth it. Whether lossy mode will be better or worse than AVIF remains to be seen. They produce fundamentally different loss (blurring/detail loss vs artifacts). JPEG XL will also be usable as a true original JPEG replacement, since it can recompress them without adding any additional loss.
Cooper Bell
What lever nerd are you? I could only understand half of what you wrote. Be more concise, jesus.
Cool all jpeg has to do is reach 80% browser support. It can get in line behind flif.
Ayden Wood
Sure, but I was talking about WebP vs. AVIF.
What didn't you understand?
Nathan Jenkins
FLIF will essentially be deprecated by JPEG XL. As for browser support, there's really only two browsers that have to include it. Mozilla generally hasn't been too hostile to supporting alternate formats, as long as the implementation is decent, so Chromium would likely be the main one to convince. JPEG XL will be an actual standard with support from more than just one dev as his pet project, so it wouldn't be unimaginable that it'd get accepted. Mobile phones would likely be the main issue, but if it gets into Chromium, it'll also get into Android and iOS already doesn't support most sane formats right now anyway.
Cameron Foster
b) Actually it kinda does. Alternate reference frames are used in a similar manner when performing 2 pass encodes.
c) QP control on VP8 has been perpetually borked, forcing a specific bitrate forces better bit distribution even on a single keyframe.
Gavin Martin
Fuck it, I wasn't cut out for this 1337 hacker darkweb shit, I'm going to /v/. Have fun you nerds.
Sebastian Wright
>FLIF will essentially be deprecated by JPEG XL. Really? It doesn't seem to have the same feature set.
Seems to me like Pik will be superseded by JPEG XL. Maybe.
Julian Diaz
FLIF's author is responsible for a large part of the JPEG XL proposal (FUIF) and it shares a lot of the feature set of FLIF, with more focus on lossy stuff. What exactly does FLIF have over it?
Luis Morales
So why does -z exist then if both control compression level?
Luke Morgan
In 2019, what becomes popular or deprecated is almost solely dependent on what the almighty Chrome/Chromium/Blink team decides. You could figure out a way to have a million to one compression ratio, but it means jack shit in terms of the WWW so long as the resulting files are unreadable in the monopoly browser.
Personally, I hope they're deprecating everything in favor of dumb bitmaps.
