Re: jpegli - new and clever jpeg encoder

Guetzli can't do anything but 1x1,1x1,1x1. If the ouput is different it isn't a guetzli file. Right, I misread your post, if it should use 1x1,1x1,1x1 sub-sampling, presumably because overall that is optimal for outputting small files of acceptable quality, but doesn't in your tests then you are re...

Re: jpegli - new and clever jpeg encoder

Saving a jpg file as "JPG - Guetzli" in XnView MP uses the long time the guetzli encoder needs but saves a different file. Guetzli has always sub-sampling 1x1,1x1,1x1 but when i just tried it creates a sub-sampling 2x2,1x1,1x1 file with the size of the default jpg encoder. I believe that JPG - Guet...

Re: jpegli - new and clever jpeg encoder

I would like to use the JPEG LI Encoder in XnViewMP preferred for batch conversions. A further 'export to JPEG-LI' entry in file menu is not required. Later you can add it in XnConvert, too. The JPEG LI encoder (cjpegli.exe executeable file) needs a special uncompressed picture file format (e.g. PN...

Re: Guetzli JPEG from Google

Guetzli is installed by default in XnView MP, I don't know about XnView Classic. But be warned that Guetzli is only suitable for minimising the filesize of small images, conversion time increases very rapidly as image dimensions increase, making its use normally impractical, and that there is a JPEG...

Re: MP 1.6.5 - background remover - working with 2 layers?

In PDF, TIFF, etc. files it is possible to switch between the layers or sides. PDF and TIFF are file formats that support multiple images which can be stepped through, and in general each image will have its own background, although exceptionally the background in each may be the same or similar. S...

In the browser, please take a look at Edit > Rename... and see if you can figure out how to use it... :D

Re: Cleaning up old photo scans

I learned early in my scanning days that editing colours was whenever possible best avoided, fortunately the material I was typically scanning could usually first be converted to grayscale and then enhanced much more easily using a levels adjustment! I have, however, taken a quick look at your examp...

Re: Equal cropping on top and bottom for images with different heights

I have pictures with different heights. I would like to shorten them to a uniform height. To achieve this, they should not be shortened at the top or bottom, but evenly at the top and bottom. How can I achieve this? I think Image > Canvas resize... will do that, if you set Position to Centre and Mo...

I want to batch process several photos and save a file in different ratios. Is it possible to create two files in one step in batch processing? I'm afraid that isn't currently possible... :( If you need to do that regularly, you could save a script for each type of output and then load a required s...
