Dear Pierre, thanks for taking care of this issue, but I'm not able to test it on XnViewMP, beause I simply can't find the option to export as AVIF.
I also selected AVIF in the Settings > Formats, but on export view its always a standard format selection. Please advice.

Hi Pierre,

Sorry, but I am using Convert and I'm using it for converting only. Or am I missing something ....

Hi Pierre,
just had the chance to test XnView MP 1.9.2 (now I can see the convert dialog). But unfortunately, both Export and Batch Converting to AVIF lead to the same exact issue. My system is still as described in my post (MacBook Pro 16", 2019, Intel, MacOS Sonoma, now 14.7.5)
