Closed HEIC-to-JPEG-Dev closed 5 years ago
It appears that Windows does not support the YCBCR
color space. You will need to change the color space of the image to sRGB
before you save the image.
Thank you, that helped a little. I run through 60 HEIC files, previously, 0 converted to tiff successfully, with the color space change, 5 now convert successfully. 55 do not.
Windows Photo Viewer says "it appears that we do not support this file format"
[SOLVED] The read colo space needs to be sRGB and the compression format JPEG. This writes correct TIFF files for windows.
Prerequisites
Description
Open a HEIC image and save as TIFF. The output TIFF image is corrupt and cannot be read by Windows. Performing the same with an output to JPG works perfectly, as does PNG.
Steps to Reproduce
No errors produced. Windows cannot open the TIFF file
System Configuration
Windows 10 1809 and 1903
