Using WebP, webmasters and web developers can create smaller, richer images that make the web faster. Method 1: Disguish your Chrome. This means that you can open WebP photos with Windows Photo Viewer without installing any codec or plugin.
Navigate to the image and open or edit like you would any other JPEG. With other image sizes the compression is equal or worse. Download your JPG. Not all web browsers support the webp format, and most web services that use the webp format fall back to png or jpg images instead when such a browser is used. Press ESC to close. Why is my image saving as a WebP? I think there are now websites like Photobucket that are preventing anyone from downloading images using right click and save by fooling firefox that they are in a different format.
I don't know why the extension would be sensitive to the version of Windows you have. Perhaps there is a conflict with another feature or setting? If you want to try a different extension, I submitted a new one to the Add-ons site for review.
I'm not comfortable at this time installing the webp converter add-on to my Firefox browser and would like to know alternative methods such as software that will convert a webp file once I've downloaded it.
This includes files that are jpeg or gif format. Currently, when I download such files I can't open them on my Mac; they are not readable by the Mac's standard software programs and not recognized by my older video converter software. If I try to delete the webp from the file extension, that doesn't resolve the issue at all. Can someone recommend good software programs for conversion of webp files to standard jpeg, gif or other formats while retaining the file name if possible?
You could take a look at these and search further in the App Store app. Thanks for the advice. I understand that there are software programs that can convert a webp file to more typical gif or jpeg, so I should research those options. I was hoping someone would be able to recommend the best of such programs. When I read the Mozilla notes on the Firefox add-on, I didn't like the sound of some functions in it that struck me as invasive, imposing upon my normal browser activity, etc.
My own webP converter also requires "all sites" permission. The reason is that a lot of images are embedded from different servers, so you need cross-site permissions to manipulate them, and the only practical way is to get permission in advance. However, if I think of a way to not require that, I'll update the extension with that approach. Hi tjphoto, if I could mention one other option: browsers can display webP image files, and also capture screenshots. So you can convert a saved webP file in Firefox as follows:.
C Click "Save Full Page" and after a moment Firefox should display an overlay with its converted image. It sounds like you all are not understanding the issue correctly. Firefox is not converting the image files but appending webp to the end of the file name. If I download the exact same image file from Chrorne or IE than the webp extension is not appended and shows up as the correct file type.
Example: Firefox sees image. It is this action we want to end as no one should have to deleted the webp extension as it should recognize, and save the file properly.
So no renaming, no converting no nothing except for Firefox to save with the correct extension instead of changing it, as most websites do not support webp if you were to try to upload one. Get it now? I would attach an example but guess what? Mozilla does not support the webp file type either!!!!! Hi Gelio, welcome to this thread. I'm not sure the earlier posters would agree that they don't understand their own situations when trying to save images.
But we can discuss the problems you are encountering. Firefox wouldn't normally add a. Can you share a link? Here's an example yesterday where someone opened an image that has. This creates a problem in Firefox because you can't extract and save the JPEG from the container; Chrome has that ability. Thanks again for advice. I was trying to come up with a solution that preferably didn't involve too many steps. I discovered that there are sites that will process and convert files with the webp appended to the file name, converting it to a desired format such as gif to mpeg4 or webp to jpeg.
I found a couple of these converter sites so far, though I noticed one of them has a limit on the number of conversions you can do for free within a day before you have to sign up for a paid membership with a monthly or annual fee.
Anyway, these seem to be pretty easy processes to use, based on my experience so far. I also have the option of using the Grab software that came with my Mac to do a kind of screensave that I can control the cropping on.
This saves as a tiff, then I use Photoshop to convert the tiff to a jpeg or whatever format I choose. At the moment, I think there's only one website I frequent that has been displaying files with a webp format in the name and only started this recently.
So it's not a common problem with all sites I visit that have images or video clips. However, I've noticed there are sites like twitter and instagram, I think, that control images to prevent visitors from dragging the images to your desktop or doing a right click to save, etc. I understand the importance of protecting people's images. But of course software like Grab can still save these images and convert them easily enough.
I don't think you're understanding the issue. The only site I've been on that displays images that download with a webp file name is programmed to add that appended webp.
