:wink: Hello,

i use the German XnViewMP Version 1.7.1 64-bit on Windows 10 Pro.
When i want to save a picture with Save as ... (Speichern unter ...) it takes a long time (2 or 3 minutes).
The same happend with V. 1.6.3.

I have no idea whats going on here.

Greetings, Gracchio

Possibly JPEG created using Guetzli compression, which is notoriously slow and was only intended for small images?

Note: I'm not sure how you select that, if it is still an option?

You solved my problem - many thanks.

I have never looked to the Dateityp which is used for Save as ...
It was: JPG - Guetzli JPEG (*.jpg)

I cannot remember, that i have this selected by my own.

When i change Dateityp to: JPG - JPEG / JFIF (*.jpg .........) everything works fine.

Forget about JPEG / JFIF and use Jpegli, but you must first enable this codec in the settings to make it visible in "save as".
Jpegli give You better quality in smaller file :)

Where, please?

I've updated to 1.7.1 and don't see it in Tools > Settings... > Formats where I would expect it to be, or in Tools > Settings..> Write -- JPEG tab?

Is the plug-in not included in the download, or possibly not available for Linux?

It is in Tools > Settings... > Formats between JPEG-2000 and JPEG / JFIF in Windows version. I don't know how it's on Linux version, but standalone JPEGLI is accessed on Linux.

Thanks, I don't still see it, possibly the plug-in has to be installed, or was missed in the Linux DEB version??
