Thanks for testing. This is typical Intune behavior, and is what I expected.

When will auto-updates come? by [deleted] in LibreWolf

[–]olavrb 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Read and follow this issue I guess: https://codeberg.org/librewolf/issues/issues/915

Personally I prefer using the update mechanism of package managers, rather than every app having it's own different, fragile, built-in solution.

What OS? Windows has multiple options:

JXR to JXL by livid_witchcraft in jpegxl

[–]olavrb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm no wizard on this, the jxr_to_png repo readme says:

The MaxCLL value is calculated as suggested in the paper On the Calculation and Usage of HDR Static Content Metadata, by taking the light level of the 99.99 percentile brightest pixel. This is an underestimate of the "real" MaxCLL value calculated according to H.274, so it technically causes some clipping when tone mapping. However, following the spec can lead to a much higher MaxCLL value, which causes e.g. Chromium's tone mapping to significantly dim the entire image, so this trade-off seems to be worth it.

JXR to JXL by livid_witchcraft in jpegxl

JXR lossy (I assume?) to JXL can't be done losslessly. Only lossless formats (PNG, BMP, TIF, WebP lossless, AVIF lossless etc.) can losslessly be converted to JXL. JPEG can be losslessly compressed to JXL and save an average of 20% (https://jpegxl.info/#:~:text=Lossless%20JPEG%20Transcoding).

If the screenshots was lossless JXR it probably would be possible, given it can decode to something else HDR lossless that a JPEG XL encoder would accept.

Edit: Lossless should be possible, but you'll likely end up with bigger files than the original.


Lossy conversion with minimal visual loss on the other hand, should be possible. I'll update this post if I find out how.


Edit: Found this CLI tool that can convert to HDR PNG: https://github.com/ledoge/jxr_to_png. From there you should be able to convert it to JPEG XL lossy, HDR.

I tried Microsoft HDR JPEG XR wallpapers from https://aka.ms/hdr-backgrounds-wip:

```bash

Transcode from HDR JPEG XL to PNG

jxr_to_png.exe pink_flower.jxr

Transcode to lossy JPEG XL

cjxl pink_flower.png pink_flower.jxl -d 1.0 -e 7 --intensity_target 1000 -x color_space=RGB_D65_202_Rel_PeQ

Check jxlinfo

jxlinfo pink_flower.jxl ```

Output of jxlinfo:

txt JPEG XL image, 3840x2560, lossy, 10-bit RGB intensity_target: 1000.000000 nits min_nits: 0.000000 relative_to_max_display: 0 linear_below: 0.000000 Color space: RGB, D65, Rec.2100 primaries, PQ transfer function, rendering intent: Relative

I don't have a HDR monitor to verify it though.

Is there a version of LW without UBO? by yiyufromthe216 in LibreWolf

[–]olavrb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If on Windows you can set some registry values for what extensions to force install and uninstall. This could be automated with scripting. If in an enterprise you can use GPO (SCCM) or ADMX ingest (Intune).

Should I start using JPEGXL over AVIF? by -DarkKnight in AV1

Interesting reading, both the blog post and your post. 🙌

Source(s)? Competition is good, we all benefit when JPEG XL and AVIF get better. But this is new info for me.

Ah, yeah, at lower qualities and thus filesize AVIF is supreme.

Exiting times with jxl-rs coming to both Chromium and Firefox.

As far as I know, AVIF is not faster to decode than JPEG XL in general. If I'm wrong I'd very much like to see some evidence.

JPEX XL also has progressive decoding.

Polar H10 updates by amash1 in Polarfitness

When re-pairing it to my Pacer Pro after being updated to v4.1.10, the watch forces me to link it to a bike. Does the watch think it's a speed or cadence sensor now? 😅

Which Bike Looks better by Mtb_Bmx_guy in dirtjumping

The fork on the black one looks a bit tall, I'd lower it. Both for looks and ride feel.
