File: JPG vs Webp.png (844 KB, 2550x964)

Buenos dias /g/, I heard there's some non-luddites here interested in Webp.

https://umigalaxy.com/explore/general/468

'cwebp -sharp_yuv -m 6 -mt -pass 4 -hint photo -size 540000 in.jpg -o out.webp' size=bytes not KB
>>
is webm pass same as progressive jpeg?
>>
>>108769742
No, this is for increasing compression efficiency. Normally Webp is only somewhat better than JPG but with this you make it work harder on top of -m 6.

Webp images load sequentially and lack progressive loading. Not that you really need that with 0.96 SSIM encodes.

Forgot source for the image being tested.

I sometimes get mixed results with webp. Sometimes it's not really better than JPG and sometimes it cuts filesize by half. Like picrel compresses really well even though it's not anime. It's from a panasonic perfume music video. Maybe Webp favors pre-compressed video????
>>
both avif and jxl are better, also kys vibecoder

Webp is still often an improvement over JPG and decodes the fastest out of all 3 modern formats so it still fills a niche on the internet. Not to mention:

>obliterates GIF, the thing that's really clogging internet pipes
>supported on nearly all browsers
>supported on nearly all image viewers
>supported on nearly all image editors
>supported on nearly all CMS
>supported on nearly all image CDN
>supported on a random embedded Android webview from 2019

Essentially Webp is becoming the toyota corrola of image formats.
>>
>>108772818
jpeg is the toyota corrola, webp is more like the nissan juke.
>>
>>108772839
Nah, JPG is a more like a station wagon from the 90s with hand crank windows and a casette player stereo with blown out speakers. Everything is rusted and falling apart, sometimes sits for days inoperable. But the boomer owners still refuse to let it die.

Again Webp replaces GIF amazingly. Mega turbo huge reduction in bandwidth there alone...
>>
>>108772907
>hand crank windows
sovl. my granddad drives a russian lada niva 4x4 with those.
anyway, webp lossy compression is seriously the worst, i mean even worse than classic jpeg. colourful text gets obliterated.
>>
>>108772935
You think the JPG in OP's example looks better lol?
>>
>>108773063
Cherry-picked example. webp, and vp8 for that matter, are awful at handling colours. Even where it's better than jpeg it makes sense to just use jpeg and convert to jxl when the time comes.

What do you meancherry picked? It's an image of a fucking real life bird not anime. Anime is actual cherry picking. Real world testing shows consistent 20-30% filesize reduction for the same quality.

I mean you could ONLY test old WW2 images with heavy grain and Webp would only be 5-10% better since it's essentially trying to encode random rgb noise. But isn't that also cherry picking?

>"and 2,7% of the images were larger."

1- why is webp so blurry
2- show avif and jxl equivalents
>>
>>108772907
mp4 and webm also replace gif, no need to add webp in the mix for moving images
>>
>>108773232
>The AVIF images had a median file size reduction of 50,3%,
>the 85th percentile was 39,6%,
>and none of the images were larger than the reference.
>>
>>108769735
Nah, we prefer jxl here.
>>
>>108773331
If there's anything we can all unanimously agree here, it's that MP4/Webm have been UTTER FUCKING DOGSHIT replacements for GIF.

>shotty alpha transparency
>maybe your video supports it, maybe it doesn't
>you literally have to use a fucking video player to view the animations
And so on and so on.

Animated AVIF and animated JXL are much better obviously but Animated Webp has the lowest decode complexity. Probably lower than GIF desu, decoding a 10MB GIF sounds more resource intensive than decoding a 3MB animated Webp.
>>
>>108772907
JPEG = station wagon
WebP = crossover
AVIF = hatchback
JXL = MPV
>>
>>108769735
4chan doesnt support it, so its a dogshit format :)

"you think the black text looks bad lol?"

Jpeg artifacting is unironically useful for maintaining the amount of high frequency content, even if it's wrong.
