Posted - Sep 26 2025 : 06:22:11 ImageEn 14.2.5:
// Register all available ImageEN plug-ins in FormCreate: IEGlobalSettings().RegisterPlugIns(); iewebp32.dll is in the EXE DIRECTORY
// loading different image files at runtime dynamically: // .webp file is displayed in ImageEnView1: LoadedImageFile := ImageEnView1.IO.Params.FileName; ImageEnView1.IO.SaveToFile(LoadedImageFile);
This results in LoadedImageFile.webp on disk having 0 Bytes! |

Lossless is false by default:
http://www.imageen.com/help/TIOParams.Lossless.html
So you need:
ImageEnView1.IO.Params.Lossless := True;
If your file has a .webp extension, it makes no difference if you use SaveToFile() or SaveToFileWebP().

Posted - Sep 27 2025 : 07:06:06 Hi Nigel,
Thanks for the information.
When using the "IO.SaveToFile(...)" option, will the quality also be LossLess in contrast to the "IO.SaveToFileWebP/IO.Params.Lossless" method? |

If the WebP DLL is in the EXE folder then the default configuration is enough, i.e. ImageEnView1.IO.SaveToFile( 'D:\myimage.webp' );
Or you can explicitly set the WebP DLL using IEGlobalSettings().WebPEngine := ieenDLL;

Posted - Sep 26 2025 : 14:08:34 With this configuration it finally works:
// Save the LoadedImageFile image to a lossless WebP:
IEGlobalSettings().WebPEngine := ieenDLL;
ImageEnView1.IO.Params.Lossless := True;
ImageEnView1.IO.SaveToFileWebP(LoadedImageFile);
CodeSite.Send('LoadedImageFile Saved as WebP');
I've never encountered a DLL that was so complex and difficult to configure! |

Posted - Sep 26 2025 : 13:52:30 Sorry, the WEBP DLL was in the wrong directory. Now I get this:
ImageEn Version: v14.2.6 Beta (Wednesday 10 09 2025)
IEVision DLL: v8.1.6.0 IELang DLL: Unavailable PDFium DLL: v140.0.7269.0 SevenZip DLL: v22.1.0.0 WebP DLL: v1.2.2 ImageMagick DLL: Unavailable
JPEG Engines: [DLL], Native, WIC PNG Engines: [DLL], Native, WIC JPEG2000 Engines: [DLL], Native Raw Engines: [DLL], WIC PDF Engines: [DLL], Native WebP Engines: DLL, WIC
But the saved WEBP file is still 0 Bytes!! |

Posted - Sep 26 2025 : 12:19:36 Hi Nigel,
I got this:
ImageEn Version: v14.2.6 Beta (Wednesday 10 09 2025)
IEVision DLL: v8.1.6.0 IELang DLL: Unavailable PDFium DLL: v140.0.7269.0 SevenZip DLL: v22.1.0.0 WebP DLL: Unavailable ImageMagick DLL: Unavailable
JPEG Engines: [DLL], Native, WIC PNG Engines: [DLL], Native, WIC JPEG2000 Engines: [DLL], Native Raw Engines: [DLL], WIC PDF Engines: [DLL], Native WebP Engines: WIC
1. However, my ImageEn version is 14.2.5 as stated on the TImageEnView control

2. However, iewebp32.dll IS in the exe directory:

As I use SKIA, I've set this in FormCreate:
// Register all available ImageEN plug-ins:
IEGlobalSettings().WebPEngine := ieenNative;
IEGlobalSettings().RegisterPlugIns([]);
I still get the 0 Bytes WEBP file!

Posted - Sep 26 2025 : 06:55:43 Even with this workaround, the saved WEBP file becomes 0 Bytes:
if LoadedImageFile.EndsWith('.webp', True) then
begin
// Save the LoadedImageFile image to a lossless WebP:
ImageEnView1.IO.Params.Lossless := True;
ImageEnView1.IO.SaveToFileWebP(LoadedImageFile);
CodeSite.Send('LoadedImageFile Saved as WebP');
end
else
begin
ImageEnView1.IO.SaveToFile(LoadedImageFile);
end; |
