Has the arm incompatibility received any attention?
I can send you a Raspberry Pi for free if that regression can be fixed (A RPi 3+, the 4's are for me)
You know how to reach me.

Nope. I suppose a first start would be to add an issue on GitHub so that it would not be lost in the forum. Are there some error messages?

You're mentioning a regression. From which version did the issue happen?

It would be great to make it work on Raspberry Pi. Personally I've never used one and I don't intend to have one. I would prefer to sort this issue in a dialogue with a Raspberry user.

You know how to reach me.

I don't see what you are referring to.

I think he means you can PM him to contact him in the forum.

Great job, its posible to support .webp file format?

[circular]

To support webp format, one would need a reader or writer for it. Writing it in Pascal seem quite a big task. Has it already been done?

[Segator]

I read about a delphi biding to webp library, but not pure pascal implementation.

I think using the library will be ok, no need to reinvent the wheel...

A free Raspberry Pi  Anyway, everybody should have a Raspbery Pi anyway....

But I keep this one - with your permission - to help someone else if you refuse it...
Just a little incentive to get things working on Raspbian.

I was also guessing that. Though I prefer if it's clarified.

I hear you would like to share your love of the Raspberry. 

Well as you have a Raspberry, maybe you can find a way to fix the library?

Indeed. Not sure though how to plug that.

I have the dll for Windows 32 and 64 bits ( I compiled these with visual studio right now). Also the Pascal header made by someone else… so you can access the methods of the dll from Pascal.

I was trying to do it to save to webp but I don't know too much about data manipulation with pointers like pbyte, that's the input and output format used by the library...

[lainz]

Hi, well I've saved a BGRABitmap to WebP right now
https://github.com/bgrabitmap/webp

But the image is flipped, maybe you that have more experience know why and can fix? 

Is in the bgrabitmap organization at github, so you can already modify it.

BGRABitmap + fpGUI works perfectly on arm Rpi.
You may try the Rpi release of Eschecs here:

Very impressive image processing suite. Maybe some of you old timers remember that guy who had all those image algorithms on his website. Delphi stuff IIRC. For some reason I'm thinking of "Elf"? His name was like "Elf" or something. Don't laugh but I used to have a Delphi telecommute job and I did a lot of that stuff so it was pretty cool to discover his site.
