I’ve been trying to make image comparisons, first tried GIF because that’s the most well known looping format, but the quality is awful. So then I learned about WebP.
I got my two PNGs in the timeline, each one lasting for around 1 second. When I choose to export in WebP animation, and click on the “Other” tab, the only parameters listed are:
audio_off=1
preset=default
And when I try to add “loop=0” and export it, the webp file doesn’t loop, it stays on the first image.
Additional info: in the video tab I have the framerate set to the minimum (10 fps), and in the codec tab I have the quality set to 100% for lossless quality.
I know it seems weird but you can specify the number of times in WebP. So, 0 means indefinitely. It works for me when I test the WebP by itself in a web browser (not embedded in a page) as this is how I make the animated Shotcut filter icons.
You said it does not loop for you, but you did not say how you know, how you tested it.
Thanks for the fast response. I was trying it out by opening it with the default Windows player, which didn’t loop. Then with VLC and MPC-HC which couldn’t even render the file.
And now i’ve just tried to open it in Chrome and it actually works lol. Thanks again and sorry for the stupid issue.
