Agreed and understood. I wasn't aware of all hoops you would need to jump through to incorporate BPG, whereas AVIF is a great alternative actually. Thanks for responding so promptly.

High compression ratio. Files are much smaller than JPEG for similar quality. 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. Animation support.
