Real AVIF output
Encoded by magick, the same library the command-line tools use — not a renamed extension.
About DDS
DirectDraw Surface
Microsoft's DirectX texture container. It usually stores GPU-compressed data (the DXT or BCn formats) with mipmaps, so a graphics card can load it without decoding. Convert to DDS for game textures and mods; convert from it to view or edit a texture.
About AVIF
AV1 Image File Format
An image format from the Alliance for Open Media, finalized in 2019, that stores AV1-compressed images in a HEIF container. It supports lossy and lossless compression, alpha and HDR, and its files are often smaller than WebP. Use it for web images when you want the smallest files; current Chrome, Firefox and Safari all display it.
