About WebP Format
WebP is a modern image format developed by Google. It was designed to provide better compression than JPEG and PNG while maintaining similar or better image quality. WebP supports both lossy and lossless compression, transparency, and animation, making it a versatile format for web use.
History and Development
WebP was developed by Google and introduced in 2010. It was designed to be a modern replacement for JPEG and PNG formats, providing better compression efficiency. WebP uses VP8 video codec technology for lossy compression and a lossless compression algorithm for lossless images. The format quickly gained support from major browsers and became a standard format for web images.
Technical Specifications
WebP is a raster graphics format that supports both lossy and lossless compression. The format can handle various color spaces, transparency (alpha channel), and animation. WebP files are typically 25-35% smaller than equivalent quality JPEG files and significantly smaller than PNG for photographic content. The format supports metadata and can be used for both static images and animated sequences.
Advantages
- Better compression than PNG
Limitations
- Some older software may not support it
Device Compatibility
WebP works well with modern browsers like Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Opera. Mobile support is good on both Android and iOS. Most modern content management systems and image processing tools handle WebP natively. The main compatibility gaps are with older software and some email clients.

Technical Details
WebP to MP4 Conversion
WebP images use WebP image compression, which can be lossy or lossless. When converting to MP4, the image is encoded as video frames using H.264 video codec. For animated WebP files, each frame is converted to a video frame, creating a video sequence. The conversion process creates a video file from the image or animation, making it suitable for video platforms.
Format Limitations
WebP has some limitations compared to MP4: it only contains images, so video information needs to be added during conversion. WebP may not work on all devices, especially older browsers. Some older media players may not support WebP. However, converting WebP to MP4 makes the content more accessible on modern devices and platforms while adding video capabilities.
