Package: libxcomp3 Severity: wishlist Hi all, By Savko Sergey I have just been pointed to the upcoming BPG image compression library [1]. Quoting their website: """ BPG (Better Portable Graphics) is a new image format. Its purpose is to replace the JPEG image format when quality or file size is an issue. Its main advantages are: High compression ratio. Files are much smaller than JPEG for similar quality. Supported by most Web browsers with a small Javascript decoder (gzipped size: 55 KB). Based on a subset of the HEVC open video compression standard. Supports the same chroma formats as JPEG (grayscale, YCbCr 4:2:0, 4:2:2, 4:4:4) to reduce the losses during the conversion. An alpha channel is supported. The RGB, YCgCo and CMYK color spaces are also supported. Native support of 8 to 14 bits per channel for a higher dynamic range. Lossless compression is supported. Various metadata (such as EXIF, ICC profile, XMP) can be included. """ We should take a look at this new compression library and check if it is usable in NX.
