Would it be possible to have a PNG to JPEG (100 percent) converter for the likes of OvnPro/Imp etc?

(to save space-instead of changing PNG files to RO Sprites)

ie a !TransPNG

Or could the RO be made to handle PNG natively like it does JPEGS?

Does ChangeFSI support PNG?

That said, isn’t a 100% JPEG likely to consume more space than a sprite? Anything less than 100%, you’ll start seeing JPEG artefacts.

 *ChangeFSI input_png_filename output_jpeg_filename JPEG100

or

 *Alias png2jpeg ChangeFSI %0 %1 JPEG100
*png2jpeg input_png_filename output_jpeg_filename

though as Rick mentions your space saving mileage may vary (the Huffman compression will save a little).

Or better still, reimplement RO Select’s ImageFileRender API then multiple formats can be dealt with natively.

ChangeFSI introduces artefacts even at 100%. Native PNG support would be handy!
