[Image Resizer] Better support for HEiC image formats #1934
Comments
@bricelam I know you were looking into this Before. Ideas? |
AFAIK, it should work if you have a WIC codec installed. Needs #1929 for the best experience |
Maybe we prompt for “you need to install ....” for heic stuff If they don’t. |
I came here looking for heic support too. So many web services don't support it yet, it would be great if I could right click -> resize it into a JPEG file in one click. I have the Microsoft HEIF codec installed already, and can open the images fine in Paint and Preview, but I don't see any shell support for resizing. |
@drew-hoffman One trick you can use is to select both the HEiC image and a dummy JPEG image. This should allow the context menu to show up. |
I think we can do better with HEIC, I think it is
|
I used @bricelam's trick to resize one HEIC file and one JPG file, but the HEIC failed. I already have the HEIF Image Extensions "app" installed from the store, which I assume means I have the necessary codec. |
Please add support for HEIC, the resize workaround with a dummy file did not work fully as the files is corrupted afterwards. |
I dug into the Object reference not set to an instance of an object error once, and it appears to be related to a bug in WPF when it tries to initialize a store-installed codec. I think I "submitted feedback" somewhere for it, but it probably just got lost in the void. Porting to WinUI/WinAppSDK (#1053) would be one way work around the issue |
Can HEIC images be catered for in ImageResizer
