(OLD) (ARCHIVED) Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

[musher0]

Hello.

Some feel it was a mistake on my part to post the result of my research:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=976175&sort=lastpost#976175
underneath the question asked on this thread:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=976170&sort=lastpost#976170

And those people are right: the tools I uncovered are not for the Puppy coterie,
they are for all Puppy users.

In short, you can encode and decode (aka convert) webp images with this pet
package: libwebp-0.6.1-linux-x86-32.pet, available on zippyshare for the next
month: http://www43.zippyshare.com/v/jAcl4HY9/file.html (850 kB)

Please help yourselves if you need this package. I have tested it successfully
on xenialPup. I believe it is "distro-agnostic", but confirmation would be nice.

That pet is a puppyfication of the Google tools found here:
https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/download
for doing so.

You'll find other URLs leading to other solutions on the Puppy forum thread above,
if you are not satisfied with the tools made available by the Google devs.

BFN.

Hello all.

I will simply add that I have made a fresh compilation of the netpbm "advandced"
tools, available through here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=112265

I mention it because using both Google's dwebp utility and netpbm's pnmtojpeg utility
it's a cinch to convert a webp image to the jpg format.

Hi Musher0:

How have you been? I'm not sure but couldn't something like this be done with ffmpeg?

Hi slavvo67.

I'm fine! And you?

In answer to your question: It can, when the Pup has the needed libraries.

I'm simply exploring further a route I already know, I mean the netpbm suite.

BFN.
