hi @dougtoppin is there any estimate on this?
would be a major improvement on our websites.
@devesch We are looking at supporting AVIF now and will get back to you, tks for the suggestion

AVIF support would be great especially now that it's supported in most major browsers, desktop and mobile.
The issue has been added to our backlog, and planned for the future releases.
We would also very much appreciate it if the AVIF support were available soon. Maybe something similar to the AUTO_WEBP Lambda option.
@dorrikh any update on this one? I see it's been added to the backlog but do you expect it to be released any time soon?
Hi @davelarkan, @marco910 et al, We've implemented this internally, you should see the functionality alongside the next major/minor release. One thing to note is that only avif images with a bit depth of 8 will be supported, as Sharp (and their underlying image processing library libvips) don't support 10 and 12 bit depth avif images. You can read more about that here.
Thanks for your contributions to SIH, Simon
@simonkrol Great news! Happy to test this out in production.
Do I have to manually request an AVIF image or is this handled automatically like with WebP?
@simonkrol happy to hear it! Could you confirm it'll work with "thumbor" style url rules too?
@marco910 Images would need to be manually requested to be converted to AVIF. One thing to keep in mind is that AVIF image compression is quite slow, so converting to images may not be viable for medium sized images. I noticed issues with timing out on conversions for images around 1MB.
@davelarkan Yes, you will be able to use AVIF images as the source image and when converting to AVIF for both Thumbor-style and base64 encoded requests. Though I believe b64 currently allows AVIF images so long as the ContentType is set to "image/avif" in S3 (I imagine this would also work with Thumbor-style requests so long as ContentType is set and the key doesn't include a file extension).
