Hi )
I have two question.

2) why HEIC available only x64 version ?

When I try convert from JPEG2000 to HEIC in Windows 7 x64 and use XnConvert x64 , I can not recive compressed file. Process compression run , but result file not make. Why so ?

Also , I can not save as HEIC in XnView MP for Windows x64 systems. All result same.

Thank you )

Will you put the new plugin into XNConvert as well? Would be very welcome. I need to load HEIC and save to jpeg. There's some threads around here, but I didn't manage to make XNConvert reading heic.

XNConvert can maybe read some specific HEIC files. Or maybe after adding some plugin dlls to mysterious places (nothing worked for me), or maybe after buying some software from the MS Store, idk. It cannot read my files. Says "No image file".

Code: Select all

S:\Bilder\2020-10-11 iPhone\2020-05-03_029.HEIC 0x0x0 : Keine Bilddatei

Then it says that the application cannot start because no QT platform could be initialized. Took the plugins folder of XNViewMP.

? No, only XNViewMP can read my HEIC. XnConvert can't, no matter what I do. But I think I read somewhere Pierre will add HEIC support to XnConvert in the next version.
