This release is fully compatible with previous versions if you was not using AVIF decoding before.

Added

  • (Heif) save method accepts optional parameter format. If format="AVIF" output file will be encoded in h264 format using AOM.
  • AvifImagePlugin introduced. Usage: register_avif_opener() or import pillow_heif.AvifImagePlugin
  • After registering AvifImagePlugin you can work with .avif files the same way you do with .heic

Changed

  • (HeifImagePlugin) By default not accepts .avif files, register AvifImagePlugin if you need that. If you use pillow_avif then do not =)
  • options().hevc_enc property was removed.
  • options().avif property was removed.

Fixed

  • Better compatibility with pillow_avif package.
  • (Linux) Wheels size decreased significantly(almost in 2x).
  • (Linux) Building from source is a bit simpler, you can build it with your custom libraries from now.
  • (Linux) Great speed boost for encoding with new build type(it is as fast now as in Windows builds).
