APNG support

[sorat0mo]

It was like versions ago this feature was suggested. And it is still not yet implemented. I would very much like seeing apng supported in imageglass. This is what I would like to see!

How common are APNG files anyway? I rarely see them since WEBM became a thing.

If you record animated pictures with Screen2Gif you would want to use apng sometimes. At least for me.

Still nothing on APNG support?

Internal note: ImageMagick does not support APNG, because: libpng does not support APNG.

We'll have to introduce a new library to be able to support animated PNG.

For APNG support, I will suggest https://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng-apng/

Thanks for the tip!

Looking through the 7.7. tickets, I saw this chain of issues. I might try https://github.com/jz5/APNG.NET with this @fire-eggs @s8321414

Hi there. I had never encountered animated .png before, but recently came across this format as Discord implemented stickers, supporting only .png and .apng files.
Since ImageGlass is the ultimate pictures viewer for Windows in my eyes, it would be cool if APNG were also supported.

I also noticed that an APNG file can end with both .png or .apng extension. Cheers!

Any updates if this could be implemented? I have a ton of apngs that I have to open separately.

I just found out that imagemagic supports apng, could this be used instead of libpng?

https://imagemagick.org/script/formats.php#supported does list APNG as supported now

[Infinitay]

Is there any plans to include animated support for apngs? Currently it only shows a static image instead of the animation

Implemented in v9.0 beta 4. The extension must be .apng.
