Failed to convert to avif format

Post by phars »

As a Linux Mint user, I downloaded the latest version of XnConvert. I converted a PNG image to AVIF and received an error message saying "Not an image." However, it worked with any format other than AVIF.
Even when I converted from XnView, it didn't work. It just created a white file with a size of zero bits.
I tried the same thing with a different program, and it worked.
I hope for a quick response.]
