I also have the option of using the Grab software that came with my Mac to do a kind of screensave that I can control the cropping on. This saves as a tiff, then I use Photoshop to convert the tiff to a jpeg or whatever format I choose. At the moment, I think there's only one website I frequent that has been displaying files with a webp format in the name and only started this recently. So it's not a common problem with all sites I visit that have images or video clips.
However, I've noticed there are sites like twitter and instagram, I think, that control images to prevent visitors from dragging the images to your desktop or doing a right click to save, etc. I understand the importance of protecting people's images.
But of course software like Grab can still save these images and convert them easily enough. I don't think you're understanding the issue. The only site I've been on that displays images that download with a webp file name is programmed to add that appended webp. It's not Firefox that's to blame. I have not experienced Firebox's browser adding a webp to a file name on any other sites, so it seems to be something unique to a single site I was referring to.
I just wondered originally if Firefox had an easy add-on that would automatically convert the webp files to jpeg, gif or mpeg, for example, so my computer would read them normally.
My computer and software programs I use don't recognize a webp file name. If there are any you feel confident enough to recommend by name, that probably would be helpful to other users who find this thread. I found many conversion sites, but the ones I've used successfully so far include convertio. It seems to vary, also, in how many formats they do conversions between. I'd welcome feedback from others who try out the conversion sites or software programs, especially software that is Mac compatible or can be used in connection with Firefox for Mac versions.
I have to concur with Gelio on this one. I encounter this problem all the time, and its driving me to another browser. Here's a practical example of the problem at least as far as he and I see it. If i go to this site: hamilton. And i right click and save the main image using firefox, i end up with a webp image not recognised by windows photo viewer, photoshop etc. I have tried changing config settings per other articles, but it hasnt made a difference. More recently, I created a new extension that removes webP from the list of formats Firefox tells sites that it wants.
This may reduce the problem enough for you to stick with Firefox, if you want to give it a try:. Why is my image saving as a WebP? Related Contents 1 What programs can open WebP files? Show Comments. Share Article:. You suggest to right-click on every image? This is not a solution. This option doesn't exist in the dev tools. There is only 'Open link in new tab' — gtournie.
The option "open image in new tab" only appears for rendered images on the page, not for links to images. This answer seems to misunderstand the issue. Often a site will show a scaled-down version of an image that is linked to a full-size version.
When you click the image, Chrome will offer a download bad instead of showing the full-size image good. If you do what this answer prescribes, Chrome will show the thumbnail version in a new tab, which probably won't help. The Overflow Blog. Who owns this outage?

It's odd because if you look at the source of the page, it's real basic, a body tag then an image tag containing a link for the system's php page where it clearly shows jpg in there, but i guess for whatever reason IE and Edge just want to do the screen scrape version of it and save a BMP or PNG.
