LibVIPS - Can AVIF support be added please?

[FrenzyBiscuit]

Can AVIF support be added to LibVIPS? It works fine on the amd64 version of Ubuntu 24.04, so I'm assuming Armbian needs to update the package.

 

Current bug:

Failed to process avif file version: unable to call heifsave_target
heifsave: Unsupported compression

 

It's not a HEIC image, this is how LibVIPS encodes AVIF files.

Armbian is assembled from Ubuntu or Debian packages. If problems is there, problem is here too and there is little we can do about.

We have a mechanism which you can use to insert patched package to our repository, which is in use in some corner cases:

Perhaps this is a solution, perhaps not depending on possible dependency nightmare.

apparently it needs libheif

https://github.com/libvips/libvips

try 

apt-cache search heif

apt install libheif1

alternatively, there is libavif 

https://github.com/AOMediaCodec/libavif

I'm using libavif, built that from source, but you can nevertheless try 

sudo apt install libavif15 libavif-bin libavif-dev
