HEIC: Setting the chroma subsampling mode while saving


Recommended Posts

Hello. 


Are there plans to add support for setting the chroma subsampling mode while saving HEIC (MS Store)? 

 

The plugin, "Heic FileType Plus" is very slow compared to the official extension "HEIF Image Extensions".

The MS Store HEIC plugin only supports Chroma Subsampling 4:2:0.

The small increase in performance you get coding in C++ over C# is hardly enough to offset the headache of coding in the C++ language. ~BoltBait

That would make sense. Microsoft's encoder is probably GPU accelerated, and Heic FileType Plus is using a software encoder (x265).

Looking at Microsoft's documentation for their HEVC video encoder, it only supports 4:2:0 at 8-bits-per-channel.

 

What are the dimensions of the image you are trying to save?
