Hi xaphan,

Thanks for the feedback. I personally use .webp even for local images (higher quality/less storage) so I'm with you.

I haven't really looked into what containers support webp (I see that ID3 doesn't). Have you already looked into this? OR are you suggesting a sort of feature in which MM would auto-convert .webp artwork to a format that is supported by the tag format?

I guess that some sort of hybrid functionality would be required--native .webp for supported container formats, and auto-conversion otherwise? But Peke's point is also valid, if a user's library had a bunch of .webp artwork, then it may not display correctly on various devices to which it's synced or streamed.

Hi,
I see, you are right. Online services can take benefit of WebP, but from what I see WebP by design are not intended for Local storage and I have not found any device that use it for Album art, actually can make more issues than it helps.

So for now if you show Images on WEB I woudl suggest switch to WebP, but for album art I would stick to JPG and it is easy to convert https://image.online-convert.com/convert/webp-to-jpg

Hi,
It is too complicated to add partial support for some formats and not for others and what devices will support it.

Can you please supply what format supports/prefer WebP (I can't find any), app that adds it to the format and if possible device that you use and need WebP format?

But some formats supported webp and besides MediaMonkey correctly extracts art only does not decode it. And besides, I am not asking to push webp into ID3

Hi,
Not possible, some formats do not allow non standard image formats as Album Art.

at the files meta tags. WebP (Google WebP Image) - Image file formats

Hi,
Can you please elaborate where you would like that we add WebP support?

Please add WebP support
