I'm hesitating to create a new thread but...
Plugin and linux.
Ok, Linux is GPL, not LGPL or something like that, and that's the reason why it is not possible to put heic in xnviewmp linux.

Just curious.
If I take a look at the plugin in XnviewMP plugin, I get links to somethingblabla.so stuff.
I have somewhere on my system some "libheif.so.something".
Let's say I put a link or a copy of libheif.so.something in /opt/XnView/Plugins/, is my computer going to explode ? Or Xnview being able to use heic?
-edit- : I gonna try :)
Edit : I tried but nothings happen. Don't even know if xnview aknowledge if the plugin is there. Maybe I should first read how to create xnview plugin for linux...?

XnView MP on linux supports HEIC if libheif is installed

On Linux Mint you need to install libheif-dev:

Code: Select all

apt install libheif-dev
It took me a long time to figure it out, but I'm glad it works now!

Pour les déburants en linux, il me semble qu'avec ce codage ce serait mieux :D :

Code: Select all

sudo apt install libheif-dev
