Problem/Motivation

Using the Image Magick processor doesn't yield a change in file size. In a test I ran, I got the exact same file size as the source .jpg. Do I need a specific version of Image Magick? Do I need to configure anything?

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

Data model changes

For now, a lot of servers don’t support to convert to AVIF through Image Magick.
You need one of the last version which is not included in Linux distribution yet.

That’s why one of the best way (We hope!) is to use a stand-alone library like CAVIF-RS.
There is an example in the avif_lib module. Perhaps you should deal with your hosting company. On Infomaniak it seems working.

Hope it helps 😉

Looking at the issue queue of Image Magick, 7.0.10-25 and upwards seems to support AVIF. I am currently on an older version. Here is my source:

I was able to generate AVIF images using avif_lib, but i had two issues:

  • it was really slow
  • the generated images were bigger than the webp versions

I guess i'll wait until my imagemagick got updated to test this again.

I guess we can close this issue.
