What happens when you convert QOI to WebP?

Encoding mode

Lossy VP8 and lossless VP8L are different coding modes. Lossless WebP preserves supported 8-bit samples, not higher-precision source values. Encoding options can also change RGB values under fully transparent pixels. Quality defaults to 80; adjust it in Advanced options. File size depends on the image and encoder.

Sample precision & colour

Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

Is QOI → WebP right for you?

Good choice when

  • WebP fits your delivery use: Web images & short animations.
  • You need a transparency-capable destination and will check its supported variant.
  • Your receiving application supports the required WebP variant.
  • You can validate the destination’s sample precision and colour interpretation.

Probably not when

  • You assume format-level alpha support guarantees matching transparent edges.
  • You need a guaranteed output file size or archival pixel equality. Encoder settings do not guarantee either.
  • You require identical samples without a defined colour and precision policy.

QOI to WebP conversion details

Transparency representation
The implemented target supports alpha. Display-pixel processing can round translucent samples; archival sample equality is not promised.
Encoding mode
Lossy VP8 and lossless VP8L are different coding modes. Lossless WebP preserves supported 8-bit samples, not higher-precision source values. Encoding options can also change RGB values under fully transparent pixels. Quality defaults to 80; adjust it in Advanced options. File size depends on the image and encoder.
Sample precision & colour
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
Metadata & colour
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
Compression
QOI: Lossless → WebP: Lossy & lossless QOI: QOI preserves 8-bit RGB/RGBA samples losslessly. Reducing 16-bit data or discarding profiles and metadata before encoding is outside that guarantee. WebP: Lossy VP8 and lossless VP8L are different coding modes. Lossless WebP preserves supported 8-bit samples, not higher-precision source values. Encoding options can also change RGB values under fully transparent pixels.
Transparency
Transparency is replaced with white by default. Change the background in Advanced options.
Animation
Still image output. Animated files use only the first frame; animation is not preserved.
Colour depth
QOI: 8 bits/sample → WebP: 8 bits/sample
Dimensions
Rendered image dimensions are retained within the converter limits; this tool does not offer resizing. Orientation handling depends on the source decoder.
Metadata
Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

Common questions

Which compression mode will WebP use?

Lossy VP8 and lossless VP8L are different coding modes. Lossless WebP preserves supported 8-bit samples, not higher-precision source values. Encoding options can also change RGB values under fully transparent pixels. Quality defaults to 80; adjust it in Advanced options. File size depends on the image and encoder.

Are bit depth and colour values guaranteed to match?

Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.

Will metadata and colour profiles be retained?

Pixel conversion only. Original EXIF, GPS, XMP and ICC profiles are not copied; processing uses 8-bit display pixels.
