Option to skip file based on resulting filesize

Post by alex123 »

I have over 100,000 images distributed across thousands of subfolders (jpg, png) that I want to convert as a batch to webP. The end result being an identical filename with the webp extension in the same folder as the original file (ie image.png and image.webp end up beside each other).

All this seems possible with XnConvert. However the only reason I want to do this is to reduce filesize.

During a batch conversion, I only want the images where the image.webp filesize ends up being smaller than the original image.jpg to be saved. If it's not smaller, I want it skipped. Is there a way to do this? / will it be in an upcoming version update?
