- mort96 5y agoThe biggest consequence would be that this opens the door for all software built on top of ffmpeg to add support for JPEG XL. Some might even support it automatically if they're linked against an ffmpeg which supports it.
- yboris 5y agoI've been waiting to use JPEG XL (.jxl) in my Video Hub App for over a year now! I even have a PR that shows that it works, but was waiting for FFmpeg to catch up. https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App/pull/702 https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App/pull/702 My software extracts screenshots from videos and shows them in a nice browsable searchable gallery.

- LinAGKar 5y agoIt's not designed for still images, so it probably doesn't have all the features ImageMagick has for that. But it can convert between video files and loose numbered image files, and it can convert cover art. And there is animated JPEG XL.
