XnView Software

A small preview of how images are going to be aligned with current settings, updated live, when a setting is changed or an image position is changed by pulling it around in the file list tab.

Another nice feature would be to have a small preview of how images are going to be aligned with current settings, live updated when a setting is changed or an image order is dragged around.

I'm looking through the dropdown options for the info box in a corner, that you can see in view mode of an image, and can't find it.

I meant does 6/6 produce worse quality than 0/6? or is it lossless compression rate (like 7zip options) - purely slower for higher compression, without the quality loss at the same "0-100 level".

other than speed that is.. or does it affect quality as well?
the 0-6 setting in webp, not the 0-100 "level" setting.

user0, makes more sense in the actual export window, where the export button is that leads to saving dialogue.

If I add a filter, I want it to be applied regardless of the result file size.

This option compares: ?end result < original? and keeps original or the end result. Filters 'might' assist in reducing the filesize, but not always (for example original might be low quality already or the conditional ...

@xnview, the goal is size reduction, so the comparison should be the last automated decision making check for which file to keep - converted&resized&whatever or old. Otherwise you'd just not have the option ticked (default) in the first place.

Also how to make win explorer show thumbnails/previews for avif?
upd: manually typed it into Icaros and it works.

The file->format settings->write checkboxes set are set to save data, but when using file->save as it still is showing a warning message (even though info is not deleted).


Windows 11 x64
XnviewMP x64 portable 1.4.3 and 1.6.0

played with various speeds and chroma numbers.
webp seems to compress better for the same quality number, compared to avif 420.

@xnview, 2. Compare end-result (after application of conditional filters and after conversion) to original, then it's the same logic:
- keep original if it is still smaller (without saving the converted&resized).
- otherwise keep converted&resized, while deleting original.

@ xnview ,
1. Conflicts with the "delete original" option, as I don't need it to delete the original - if it's smaller than converted, and I don't need it to keep 2 of each images of a downsized image (should work with delete original on, therefore keeping the original number of unique files).
2 ...

I've read it supposed to be better than webp, but idk what are those 2 min/max settings and speed?

@xnview, should work regardless of input/output format (like when converting a folder with a bunch of random .png, .jpeg, .webp to 95% .webp) or conditional filters (like resize to 4000 width, if width>4000 ).
