cannot convert high resolution images #74

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Convert a high res image
2. Run "cwebp big.png -o big.webp"
3. Get an error message.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: Converted image
Instead: "Error! Cannot encode picture as WebP"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.1.2

Please provide any additional information below.
Ive tried it first on a large jpg file, but created a small .png sample file so 
that this can be easily reproduced.

Currently, the WebP format is limited to 16384 pixels in height or width. It 
cannot handle such large files yet.

idea (not for now): cwebp could automatically tile the source in case of large 
image.

The vp8 bitstream is limited to 16384 pixels, but the container isn't.
Could you make this work with lossless mode?

for coherency reasons, lossless is also limited to 16384 pixel resolution.

Do all image algorithms have this 16382 pixel ratio cutoff? I was hoping that I 
can have a fallback to WebP if this exception occurs. Is it possible to some 
other algorithm to compress images which are greater than this limit?

JPEG allows for dimensions up to 65535x65535. PNG uses 31-bit resolution 
(2^31-1), but by default sets an upper bound of 1Mx1M [1].
